[Where is the Messiah]

As far as I have learned, the tomato juice thing is a myth. As for the spray, the scent glands under the tail of the skunk produces an oil that is so powerful it can be detected a couple kilometers away!

You're talking about where it defecates, right? This would make sense as to why it smells so bad. I can smell those things from miles away! (not sure about kilometers) I thought the tomato thing might be a myth, i've heard this before. Im sure they got a spray or something that works against it.

Speaking of crap, this should hopefully clear up what's been dropped here today:

No--it is a pouch under the tail near the anus, but it isn't the same opening. It's the same as in a ferret.

Also, ideally if you want to discuss Catholicism, I recommend starting a conversation with me only because it's easier as a one-on-one discussion.

Sure. I would like to.

One last thing - and I address this to Patricia - Euphemia is wrong about intercessory prayer being unbiblical. It is found in the book of James. James 5:16 to be precise.

Hmm. But, she was talking about praying to other saints. Which is clearly wrong.

Nope. Asking a saint to pray for you is also intercessory prayer. And there is nothing wrong with it.

What the heck are we talking about now? And why?

I agree asking a saint for prayer isn't wrong. But, I said praying to saints is. You believe in praying to Mary and Michael the angel? That's wrong.

Of course it's wrong, but that isn't what's going on. The prayer isn't TO Mary or the saints, it is to God. You ask the saint to pray on your behalf. It's more like you're praying THROUGH the saints.

What? Okay so y'all ask Mary and the angel Michael to pray for y'all? I'm lost. More research for me.

That is precisely correct. Lysander can confirm I'm sure.

 

[ASUK]

Where is the Messiah should change his name to Where is my Medicine.

 

[Heart_for_Christ]

You're joking right, ASUK?

We're talking about Catholic beliefs and Madam 200 is tearing them apart.

You have to be praying to a dead saint in order to do that.

What? The saints are alive in heaven. And if you don't believe that, what hope is there for the rest of us?

They aren't alive to you. Intercession is our job here.

As usual, I think your understanding is confused.

Not on your life, Mr. Family Values.
