  • I was about to close my Facebook account because I have 300 friends, and only 10 of them actually reply to any status update that I have. I was not sure whether my updates were being read, as even me, I realised that this could be a problem. So, I …

  • Sorry if i seem a bit stupid, but I want, ONCE AND FOR ALL, Fr. Peter to answer this (official) Is it OK to judge a person's actions? Not the person? To me, I don't even judge the action. Even sometimes, i think my eyes can deceive me.. but What …

  • [quote author=Thackeray61 link=topic=9549.msg117762#msg117762 date=1281438213] Ok..so I'm going to ask now specifically..my question is does your church really follow what is written in the bible? [/quote] Saint Paul mentions in Titus, that we shou…
  • TITL, I think there's been a HUGE misunderstanding here concerning this thread. What I mean is: I DO NOT CARE if that monk is a saint, or not. I don't care, I don't want to know if he's someone good or bad. I don't kow.. i dont care. See? All I …
