I believe in beforebirth. Man I miss those happy days. I really can´t believe in eternal, as there was beginning. Eternal has a beginning? One-way eternity:mrgreen:

Eternity has neither beginning nor end. It is saimultaneous. Therefore, there can only be one God. If you have no idea what i am talking about, please see the following link.

you are missing the boat. You are arguing as though religion is merely something made up that may or may not be correct that is only there to influence how people act. That is bullshit. Religion, concerning Catholicism, is an instutition installed by God himself that provides an intermediate between God and Man. It is a voice that continuously rejoices in the message given by Christ himself 2 thousand years ago. Man has been reconciled through the blood of the innocent sacrifice.

I'm catholic i believe in most things the church advocates. I believe in the laws of the church. You however only believe in the rules. What is a rule that has no meaning behind it, its a word and words are pointless. You have to believe in the purpose of the rule and not just the rule. God wanted us to have respect for human life so he said thow shall not kill, he didnt say it because he wanted to make a rule he said it for a purpose. If you only followed that rule becuase it was a rule you wouldn't be getting the full effect, to care for you fellow humans.

and in one fell swoop you portray the fact that you missed the point of what i was trying to say. God gave a message. Christ did certain things. However, even aside from the basic message, one can arrive at certain conclusions based on that message. Among them: Aliens do not exist. Unbelievers are condemned to reprobation.

you aren't even makeing a point your just babaling without going anywhere. You didnt even comment on what i said. Also are you a nazi?

I was meaning about eternal life, as promised. I do know eternity means yesterday, this moment and tomorrow simultaneously. And that´s why I don´t believe I have afterlife.

A) If i didn't adress what you said, please rephrase what you want me to respond to

B) yes, yes i am. Sig Heil! Down with jews!

Eternity is undivided being. Time, however, is divided into sequence. Therefore, it is properly called "after life" because it is after the divided time.

The bible sais love your neighbor as yourself how can you be a nazi(who hates Jews) and say you catholic?
 
To me eternity is undivided nothingness. And existence is a limitation, this goes for god too, he did act, created. nothingness=fulness.

As i said earlier, the Word of God, aside from its basic message, has certain consequential inferences. Among them: The jews are condemned. I explained this in another thread, but alas, i shall repeat myself.

Life comes from Christ and from Christ alone. However, the Jews deny Christ. Therefore, as is said in John 6, the bread of life discourse:

53
Jesus said to them, "Amen, amen, I say to you, unless you eat the flesh of the Son of Man and drink his blood, you do not have life within you.

Therefore, the jews have no life within them. They are perpetually guilty, and perpetually condemned. And Christ said "seek and ye shall find" The jews apparently do not seek life, for they deny Christ. Therefore, if not life, what do they seek ,and did they not find what they saught at the hands of mein fuhrer? Concerning unbelievers and heretics: They are nothing but walking corpses. This goes especially for jews. Not only do they deny Christ, but they broke the old covenant through their denial. Not only do they just deny Christ, but broke their promise to God.

Interesting thought, though necessarily wrong. Because time proceeds from eternity, and is founded in eternity, there would be no existence were eternity nothing. Rather, Eternity must be the entirety of all possibilities.
 
Eternal nothingness is full of possibilities. Especially possibility for peace:mrgreen:

that is complete nonsense and you know it. If eternity were nothing, you would not exist.
 
Jesus also said that everyone is your neighbor(everyone not just people who think like you) Besides its not your place to judge whos right or wrong its Gods.
 
Did You know when getting to black hole, after singularity point all these physics laws don´t matter, they don´t work. Maybe eternity is there?

And that goes back to my previous statement. It is not a judgment i am passing, but one that unbelievers and jews have passed upon themselves, as is written in john 3

Whoever believes in him will not be condemned, but whoever does not believe has already been condemned, because he has not believed in the name of the only Son of God.
19

and again in john 5

Do not think that I will accuse you before the Father: the one who will accuse you is Moses, in whom you have placed your hope.
46
For if you had believed Moses, you would have believed me, because he wrote about me.
47
But if you do not believe his writings, how will you believe my words?"

and did you know that if you try to get to the other side of a black hole, you'll be utterly and completely crushed? But no, eternity is not in any one point. Eternity is just that. Eternity is Think no more concerning it.

Scholastic do You believe in big bang theory?

I believe that the almighty may have used any means to bring the universe into being. The big bang theory is possible. But only as guided by the metaphorical hand of God.
 
Scholastic said:
whoooah, lets be clear on something. I don't have to accept anything. I accept Aquinean logic, Catholic Doctrine, and the bible. Anything that goes against that must be declared inherintly wrong. For example, there is no such thing as aliens. John 1:1. God's creation is described as the following: "And what came to be through him was the life, and the life was the light of the human race. The light shines in darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it" Because Humans are described as light in darkness, and darkness is often symbolic for emptiness and void, it must be declared that humans alone have the title of "sentient life" in this universe.
Scholastic how can you be so sure. We now know far more about the universe than the writers of the Bible. 100 billion galaxies with 100 billion stars & you say no other sentient life !
One other thing... are you a Nazi ?
A Christian Nazi perhaps ?
Insanity squared :lol:

The Word of God is infallible.
 
You still haven't answered me about why you can hate Jews and still say your catholic. Don't say well they are blasphemers or that they don't accept Jesus. They are still your neighbors and Jesus said forgive them they no not what they do so you cant say it's becuase of anything they did.

I dont want to hear about some quote from the bible I want you to tell me how you can hate Jews.
