Why on earth should this be an issue? One can just pick and choose which
part of Christian teachings it will follow?
In a homily, the priest made a comment about this issue. He started
with the 10 c0mmandments. Ok- thou shalt not steal, Amen to this.
God has many names today- The Source, The Infinite Power, etc.
Then comes the kicker: Thou shalt not covet thy neighbor's wife.
Hey, Padre, stay out of this, definitely. This is a very human issue.
OK- we need a leap of faith to believe that there is God and subscribe
to the teachings of the church.
We believe in the wind, no one has ever seen what the wind looks like.
So why can we not believe in God? There are many who do call on him
only in moments of distress, extreme distress.
I've known moments of extreme stress, I survived it without any serious
damage to my health , well-being and my Christian upbringing. During those
trying times, I now know that it was my faith and my prayers that helped
me keep my sanity.
