Of course if 10 people ask me 10 different questions on 10 different threads, I being only one person, will take some time to answer. But I'll get there. As for your question, I already answered it: since you are an adult, by believing and being baptized in Christ, and receiving Holy Communion, you can receive a far greater degree of glory and higher measure of happiness in Heaven by Good Works of Love. Infant Children who died shortly after Baptism, and thus went to Heaven, or shortly before, and thus would be in Limbo, awaiting the Prayers of their Parents and the Church, have a lower degree of happiness. Since happiness is good and you should seek to obtain it, your objection fails.
If you say you don't believe, the evidence of Eucharistic Miracles should be enough to bring you to faith: See this at Lanciano: http://www.therealpresence.org/eucharst/...ciano.html It is a scientifically documented Eucharistic Miracle.
But it's not is it ? Is this the sort of banker you are ? Ignoring evidence right in front of your face ?
Quote:
Dear Christian, let us reflect upon this for a moment… St. Thomas tells us that the lowest degree of Sanctifying Grace is worth more than all the riches of the world. Think, then, of all the riches of this world! The mines of gold, of precious stones, the forests of costly wood, and all the hidden stores of wealth, for the least of which treasures the children of this world are willing to toil and struggle and sin for a whole lifetime. Again, consider that the lowest grace which a humble Catholic Christian receives at the rails of the sanctuary at dawn of day, before the great world is astir, outweighs all those riches.
But why do I draw my comparison from the things of this world?
St. Teresa, after her death, appeared to one of her sisters in religion and told her that all the Saints in Heaven, without exception, would be willing to come back to this world and to remain here till the End of Time, suffering all the miseries to which our mortal state is subject, only to gain one more degree of Sanctifying Grace and the eternal glory corresponding to it.(!)
Don't delude yourself.
You have been proven a fake and a liar.
No one really cares what you answer.
Most of the questions are rhetorical and sarcastic.
You have nothing to offer here.
The eucharist is total nonsense.
The church says the cracker is actually changed into the SUBSTANCE (an old old Greek notion which is in 2023, totally meaningless).
There is in reality nothing which can be called a "substance". There are quantum realities, atomic level realities, molecular things, cellular things.
There is no such thing as a substance. The church's theology is meaningless.
It's also a made up thing in Roman theology. Jesus (if he existed) was a Jew. The Last Supper could not possibly be true.
Any Jew who actually thought they were drinking blood, or eating human flesh would have gagged and vomited, and refused.
Any contact with blood was forbidden.
Much later Christians made up the eucharist when they were safe from the memories and culture of Jews.
If what you claim to believe is true, you're practicing cannibalism.
Every religion is true one way or another. It is true when understood metaphorically. But when it gets stuck in its own metaphors, interpreting them as facts, then you are in trouble. - Joseph Campbell

Who opened these threads? Who chose the shotgun approach, instead on focusing on crucial issues, and address ALL concerns and criticism...mhm?
Who started with a wall of text in each of these threads, making countless claims (which already have been demonstrated to be not true), most probably intentionally..mhm?

Joins the board, at least putatively, to convince souls of christ. Then proceeds to ensure that absolutely no one will be convinced of christ, by it's own completely self selected means, methods, and style.
Stellar work, really.

Bucky, you should re-read the link, especially this part: "In 1970-'71 and taken up again partly in 1981 there took place a scientific investigation by the most illustrious scientist Prof. Odoardo Linoli, eminent Professor in Anatomy and Pathological Histology and in Chemistry and Clinical Microscopy.

I don't actually believe your silly banking story, but even if it were true, it's pretty clear that the Militant Atheists know more about your own religion, the history of your church, and it's present status, than you do.
Me, I'm actually not interested in any of that shit in the present moment...to be honest. I'm more interested in why you thought "banker" would be a good introductory lie? Is this one of your values, or one of the values you think would make your pitch more compelling to it's assumed audience? Are we looking at a prosperity gospelist in pedophiles clothing, or do you think that people would listen to you more if you pretended to have money? Do you think, for example, if people knew that you were poor and destitute, they wouldn't listen to you?
In the mere reality you live in, aside from whatever thematically appropriate lies you tell..do you check your bank account moment to moment to see if you're right with jesus? If you lost money, would you believe that indicated being wrong with jesus...or is this a purely societal affectation?

I don't care what you believe or don't believe about me. I doubt many people outside the finance world would know these things like CFA and FRM as we Investment Bankers do and why they're so important from a career perspective. Yes, career is important to me, but God is even more important. Work toward your own earthly and heavenly happiness and rewards, that's all I can say. If you want to, you will receive it, by the Grace of God. If you don't want, you wont.

No, you clearly do care, you defended the lie. That suggests you think it's useful, or meaningful, or at least consequential.
Why?

So when it is pointed out how intellectually undeserving you seem to be for the accreditations to which you have laid claim, your response is to claim a few more, instead of attempting to show your intellect is not strictly limited to the level implied by your sad display in this forum so far.
Sad, but could not really expect more from one so confused as to be as fervent a Christian as you. After all Bible is all about piling on more bullshit to disguise bullshit. In the case of the Bible, the bullshit is irredeemably bullshit so there is no other way without admitting the whole thing is a fraud. But in case of you, there is at least the theatrical possibility that you can replace bullshit with substance. But it appears you are determined to show the theory of true redemption, not fraudulent huckster’s promise of redemption, does not apply to you.

Simple projection on your part. Since you lie about God, you think we're lying when we tell you the Truth, either about Christ, or about ourselves. Again, our Christian Code of Ethics forbids us to lie for any reason. You should read the story of Bilquis Sheikh in Pakistan, who became a Christian amidst fiery persecution. She had visions of Christ and experienced Him. When she told even a single white lie, she immediately felt the Glory of Christ decrease in her. We do not bear false witness. We do not want to. We do not need to. We bear witness that Jesus Christ is the Son of God, and Risen, because it's True.
