italo: I dont entirely agree with your 2nd & 3rd paragraph. Your concern was addressed by the fourth paragraph in my post on the matter. |
Re: A Thread For Catholics by woky: 11:14am On Dec 17, 2013 |
1corinthians 7:12-14 To the rest is say (i, not the lord ) that if any brother has a wife who is an unbeliever, and she consents to live with him, he should not divorce her. If any woman has a husband who is an unbeliever, and consents to live with her, she should not divorce him. For unbelieving husband is made holy because of his wife and the unbelieving wife is made holy because of her husband. Otherwise your children would be unclean, but as it is they are holy . My questions are: Do the catholic church acknowledges the fact that an unbeliever can be save?? If YES, can you marry an atheist Dnt 4gt that love is strong when anwering the second question |

woky: 1corinthians 7:12-14 Of course, the Catholic Church teaches that anyone of any religious belief can be saved if he sincerely doesn't know Catholicism to be the fullness of truth. ...And a Catholic is allowed to marry any human being of the opposite sex who is not married to another person. Only, the Catholic Church doesnt encourage inter-faith marriages for obvious reasons. |
Re: A Thread For Catholics by Nobody: 11:27am On Dec 17, 2013 |
italo: Still on the 'mixed-marriage issue.' Hmmm...what are those things you consider "humanly possible"? italo: First question: Who is a faithful Catholic? Second question: How does a Catholic single determine whether an individual will continue being a 'faithful Catholic'? I have seen cases where people who have been 'champions' of the faith lose faith. italo: There have been cases where some Catholic mothers have advised their girl-children to commit abortion and some other acts condemned by the Church. Your concern here is not just perculiar to those who are not Catholics, it cuts across. italo: I still have an ish with your use of "faithful Catholic" for two reasons, as I mentioned before: 1) Who is a Faithful Catholic? 2) How does one tell for sure that the 'faithful Catholic' won't turn out an enemy of the Church later on? I still maintain that the way it should go is by assessing the individual as a person and not give him or her any undue advantage based on Religion or creed. If our focus is on whether the individual is Catholic or not then we might end up making a mistake in our choice of a life partner. I re-iterate, Catholics are expected to cherish their faith for its awesomeness and anyone chosen by the Catholic single should be one that understands and respect this faith which naturally should extend to the kids. If in the cause of this personal evaluation of the candidate, we find out that we cannot accept the individual's beliefs and vise versa, then it is left for us to look elsewhere. It is not worth it to be with someone who cannot respect your beliefs or whose beliefs you cannot respect. |

shizzle11: ^Very true! I do not agree! The incidence of divorce in Catholic homes is a growing threat. We see Catholic ministers who grant divorce under the guise of annulment. Granted, in general the Church condemns this act in the strongest possible terms but still there seem to be a disconnect between what the Church Teaches and what some members (Clergy and Laity) decide to do. |

italo:the catholic church doesnt encourage inter-faith marriages thus doesnt condemn it aswell.. What are their vital reasons for not encouraging inter-faith marriages?? |

woky: the catholic church doesnt encourage inter-faith marriages thus doesnt condemn it aswell.. What are their vital reasons for not encouraging inter-faith marriages?? I believe the major concern for the Church is the loss of faith for both the individual getting married and the kids. |

Re: A Thread For Catholics by Nobody: 1:41pm On Dec 17, 2013 |
aManFromMars: I am ready to continue work on the awards but my fear is that someone may over rule the decisions of the majority. That I won't take and may be forced to respond in a less than gentlemanly manner. |
Re: A Thread For Catholics by woky: 2:49pm On Dec 17, 2013 |
striktlymi:stil on this your "faithful catholic" matter.. Lol tho its said that the church wil always requires the catholic party to be faithful to his or her faith.. as for/to the kids.. He or she wil promise to do all in his or her power to have their children beptized and raised in the catholic faith.. Anyways, i some how agree with you point because reverse could be the case as to what the church requires for the catholic party |

Re: A Thread For Catholics by Ubenedictus(m): 7:16pm On Dec 17, 2013 |
I on fit run na. This is a very delicate topic and both differing opinions may be right depending on perspective. One is attracted to what he is attracted to, there is no way to rationalise that away, and yet ideas and concepts actually rule our lives to a large extent. Permit me to address d topic using myself as d subject. I'll probably date anyone i'm attracted to, bt marriage is so interesting, you need d other half to compliment you not alway pull u down. This puts a non-catholic spouse in an interesting/unfavourable position. I'll probably marry a non-catholic if we can find a way to work out our differences in faith. There are so many variables in dis issue. What i'm sure of is that i can't marry one who despises my faith. U don happy now? |
