    I'm from Staten Island N.Y.
    I grew up in an Italian American household and was loosely indoctrinated in the Catholic church.
    Over time I became a Born Again Christian. My journey is a bit unusual, but the fact is that I became a student of the Bible and now the only people that I strongly identify with are those who aren't part of a church, and a couple in Norway 🇳🇴 who are Lutheran. The wife is a muslim convert and the husband is an Elder at his church AND a Christian educator at a Lutheran college where he is both Principal and Professor.
    They're married 40 years.
    Ironically, the ex-muslim Iranian Royalty wife is who I am closer too. She is a martyr for Christ, and a zealous evangelist who understands doctrine very well, and the difference between men and women in the church. We've become dear brother and sister in-Christ over the past year. Our communication has been since 1 year ago. We actually began speaking in September of 2020.
    Now, given this sketchy backdrop, here's my statement and question: Back in 2004, I once had a co-worker and friend named Teddy who was from Eritrea 🇪🇷. His country was at war with Ethiopia 🇪🇹, and he was a soldier who fought in the war against Ethiopia for 6 years. He married his best friends sister and had 4 daughters (princesses). I learned a lot from Teddy about being Christian.
    Since then, I've matured in the faith I've had a strong interest in the book of Enoch; And this has lead a DEEP curiosity about the Eritrean Orthodox church AND the Ethiopian Orthodox church as well. Can you do an intelligent satirical skit pertaining to any or all of these? Whether for or against I won't mind. Your handle of hard topics is unique and very likeable.
    Great humor with serious overtones. Thank you. I'll continue to enjoy your work, and pass it on. God bless you ALL.

      joecoolmccall What contradictions has not Luther’s reformation produced! I should never end if I would put them all on this paper. […]
      You have not one same canon of the Scriptures: Luther will not have the Epistle of St. James, which you receive. Calvin holds it to be contrary to the Scripture that there is a head in the Church; the English hold the reverse: the French Huguenots hold that according to the Word of God priests are not less than bishops; the English have bishops who govern priests, and amongst them two archbishops, one of whom is called primate, a name which Calvin so greatly detests: the Puritans in England hold as an article of faith that it is not lawful to preach, baptize, pray, in the Churches which were formerly Catholic, but they are not so squeamish in these parts. And note my saying that they make it an article of faith, for they suffer both prison and banishment rather than give it up.
      Is it not well known that at Geneva they consider it a superstition to keep any saint’s day? - yet in Switzerland some are kept; and you keep one of Our Lady. The point is not that some keep them and others do not, for this would be no contradiction in religious belief, but that what you and some of the Swiss observe the others condemn as contrary to the purity of religion. Are you not aware that one of your greatest ministers teaches that the body of our Lord is as far from the Lord’s Supper as heaven is from earth, and are you not likewise aware that this is held to be false by many others?
      Has not one of your ministers lately confessed the reality of Christ’s body in the Supper, and do not the rest deny it? Can you deny me that as regards Justification you are as much divided against one another as you are against us: - witness that anonymous controversialist. In a word, each man has his own language, and out of as many Huguenots as I have spoken to I have never found two of the same belief.
      -Saint Francis de Sales, apostle to the Calvinists
      Christ established “One, Holy, Catholic and Apostolic Church (Nicene Creed).” Tell me how can the thousands of quibbling sects established by disease and guilt ridden Germans and Frenchman claim to the the one Church founded by Christ?

      You see that a person is considered righteous by what they do and not by faith alone. (James 2:24)
      I have a challenge for you, name me a single Church or Apostolic Father from the first three centuries of the Catholic Church to defend either sola scriptura, sola fedei, any of the five points of Calvinism, or disavow the true presence of the Eucharist, or the binding authority of tradition and I will leave the traditional Catholic Church and become a protestant heretic. If you can not do this, accept that to go deep into history is to cease to be protestant.

    Showing a goose instead of a duck may have been deliberate, a subtle tribute to Jan Hus, whose last name means "goose". And who made some sort of prophecy that his enemies may have roasted THIS goose--Hus--but another goose would come along that they would not be able to destroy (paraphrasing). That person did come along--Martin Luther.

    As condescending as the lyrics are to "Do They Know It's Christmas", at least they acknowledge the existence of these poor, starving people in Africa we're raising money for, unlike "We Are the World", which is composed of probably the most self-indulgent lyrics every to come out of Hollywood.

      Almost everyone is a rather general term. Scratch that, it is absolutely general. Please refrain from saying things you do not mean. And pointing out the pagan ceremonies does not negate Christmas' intended meaning. Unless you would like to say with certainty that Christmas has nothing to do with Jesus.

    The Italians say, "Buon Natale." The Spanish say, "Felice Navidad." Perhaps English speakers should say, "Happy Nativity" instead of Merry Christmas (Christ Mass). Isn't Christ the center of every mass?

    • @jacobcarpenter3744
      @jacobcarpenter3744 8 років тому

      It would be after. Were Simeon castrated before puberty, he would have had a fairer complexion; unusually long, think limbs; no body hair; abundant locks; uneven fat deposits; a wide rib cage with incredible lung capacity; the clearly highvoide; a feminine face and overall build. I am a soprano falsettist, so the repertoire left behind is what us countertenors sing.

      Jacob Carpenter Simeon would like all òf you to quit speculating on the manner and timing of his castration. It's awkward. You don't hear Simeon engaging you in detailed specifics of your circumcision. And if you think that's being squeamish, we gals will start in with our birthing stories..

    • @jacobcarpenter3744
      @jacobcarpenter3744 8 років тому

      The subject is never a humorous joke to begin with, madam. Historically, it applies to the field of male development and music. One learns about that connection in any Music Appreciation university course. Having sung as a male soprano since my treble voice broke is more awkward a topic for me than any women' medical procedures, Ms Thompson. I must agree to disagree.
