Today's July 15th Saint: St. Bonaventura

QUOTE
Bonaventure, however, is not merely a meditative thinker, whose works may form good manuals of devotion; he is a dogmatic theologian of high rank, and on all the disputed questions of scholastic thought, such as universals, matter, the principle of individualism, or the intellectus agens, he gives weighty and well-reasoned decisions. He agrees with Saint Albert the Great in regarding theology as a practical science; its truths, according to his view, are peculiarly adapted to influence the affections. He discusses very carefully the nature and meaning of the divine attributes; considers universals to be the ideal forms pre-existing in the divine mind according to which things were shaped; holds matter to be pure potentiality which receives individual being and determinateness from the formative power of God, acting according to the ideas; and finally maintains that the intellectus agens has no separate existence. On these and on many other points of scholastic philosophy the "Seraphic Doctor" exhibits a combination of subtlety and moderation, which makes his works particularly valuable.

Islam can not live side by side with other religions.

They make trouble anywhere they live with other religions.

They even have no regard for their own kind....and their own lives. Blasting themselves to pieces killing their fellow Muslims in the name of Allah....then they say Islam means peace. embarassedlaugh.gif

^not all Muslims are like that. but yeah some Muslims tend to get a little more 'ruh tard' than some Christians. majority of Christians stopped martyring themselves in the Medieval times. But there are a lot of Christian 'ruh tard's as well.

Well as the saying goes: "NOT all Muslims are terrorists, but most terrorists are Muslims."

I'm sorry to hurt your feelings. I have blood relatives who are Muslims and I criticize them right before their faces.

And they tell me, It's ok for you to do that to us, but please don't do that to other Muslims since they might hurt you.

I know they care about me even though I'm a Christian. It's blood. We're relatives.

Why I criticize them and other Muslims? A whole lot of reasons.

One example: I was wondering one day why there are a lot of Maranao Muslims on my uncle's Sari-sari store. There were about 2 dozens of them. They were not
buying anything. They occupied all the seats outside. Some are standing. Some are kids. Men, women, elderly. They talk loud like they're arguing.

I left, then came back two hours later, they were still there. Then I left again, then came back about an hour, they're gone.

Why were they there?

They were waiting to ambush a 14 year old boy who had a fight with their son. They were classmates. They waited for the boy to pass by on his way home from school. The school is about 8 minute walk from the ambush site.

Thanks samesame.
I disagree with the links, of course, but there is nothing wrong with gentle evangelism. You want to point people towards what you perceive to be the Truth - and that is the right thing to do.

I'd be remiss not to ask you to consider Jesus in the manner described by CS Lewis. Is HE Liar, Lunatic, or LORD?

There really is no middle ground (e.g., 'He was a prophet and good man, but not GOD...'). HE testified that HE was God by HIS actions and words:

* Calmed the raging winds and the waters by the simple words: 'Peace be still';
* Said that HE was the Way, the Truth, and the Life, and that no man could come onto the Father except through HIM.
* Never dissuaded any one from worship of Himself (IF HE was not God this would be blasphemy).
* And 'when the chief priests and scribes asked HIM if HE was the Son of God (making Himself equal to God) HE said, "Ye say that I AM" (i.e., 'ye say right', or 'it is the very truth') '

HE rose from the dead (HE alone of the various religious 'leaders' is not moldering in a grave), and is seated at the right hand of God the Father.

Liar, Lunatic, or LORD?
The question put to everyone and the one answer in our lives which we must get correct. Reason and consider and weigh the evidences.


Philippians 2:6-12 Who, being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God: But made himself of no reputation, and took upon him the form of a servant, and was made in the likeness of men: And being found in fashion as a man, he humbled himself, and became obedient unto death, even the death of the cross. Wherefore God also hath highly exalted him, and given him a name which is above every name: That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth; And that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father. Wherefore, my beloved, as ye have always obeyed, not as in my presence only, but now much more in my absence, work out your own salvation with fear and trembling.
