Hello all

I need some advice to put closure on a very old situation once and for all. I was born and raised into a catholic family. I made my communion at the age of 10. For what purpose at that particular age I have yet to figure out. We never attended church at least I didn't there wasn't no way for me to get there. I think I was about 11 or 12 could have been older I don't remember. My mom and brother went for a while and then stopped I've never stepped into a catholic... ]]> feeds@yuku.com (tulip90) http://catholicpillarandfoundation.yuku.com/topic/1300 Fri, 31 Mar 2006 08:39:14 GMT <![CDATA[ Papal Succession~ Question ]]> http://catholicpillarandfoundation.yuku.com/topic/1301/t/Papal-Succession-Question.html Began. We justified the succession of the Pope through Dogmatic law, but can anyone tell me how it all began?
i.e. after Peter how was the next Pope 'chosen' and who was responsible for 'electing' the new Pope?

Sacraments: Channels of Divine Grace

by John Hardon, S.J.

It is impossible to exaggerate the importance of understanding what we mean by the sacraments as channels of divine grace.

By Kenneth J. Howell

OBJECTOR: I dont see how the Catholic Church can teach that a priest can forgive sins. Its against the Bible. The Psalmist, speaking to God, says in Psalm130:4, "But with you there is forgiveness." A man cannot forgive the sins of another person. The only sins a man can forgive are those against him directly. Jesus said we should forgive those who sin against us. But how can a priest, or any human being, forgive sins... ]]> feeds@yuku.com (Portia) http://catholicpillarandfoundation.yuku.com/topic/1310 Fri, 09 Sep 2005 08:17:01 GMT <![CDATA[ What Is Divination? ]]> http://catholicpillarandfoundation.yuku.com/topic/1311/t/What-Is-Divination-.html

Quote:
From Wikipedia: Divination is the practice of ascertaining information from supernatural sources. If a distinction is to be made with fortune-telling, divination has a formal or ritual and often social character, usually in a religious context; while fortune-telling is a more everyday practice for personal purposes.

It developed as a practical garment, protecting the habit during work, and was in time invested with spiritual significance, consecration or dedication to God.

By analogy to the scapulars of religious, there are small scapulars that are derived from them which represent a particular devotion or spirituality, usually associated... ]]> feeds@yuku.com (Praying for Patience) http://catholicpillarandfoundation.yuku.com/topic/1312 Tue, 06 Sep 2005 17:20:48 GMT <![CDATA[ Is the Mass a True Sacrifice? ]]> http://catholicpillarandfoundation.yuku.com/topic/1313/t/Is-the-Mass-a-True-Sacrifice-.html By Kenneth J.

OBJECTOR: Doesnt the Catholic Church teach that the Mass is a true sacrifice to God?

CATHOLIC: Yes. The Church has believed and taught this truth from the earliest of times, as the early Church Fathers testify, and the Council of Trent affirmed it absolutely.
