| This is reaaaally late, but I wanted to answer some questions that have been raised earlier in the topic. These are the Catholic views... and most likely the views of most Protestant religions as well.
"Saint" is a word that refers to any soul that is in Heaven. Canonized saints are people that the Church has recognized as being in Heaven because of the good they did on earth. But, anyone that you know that has died could be a saint.
Also, about free will... God gave each person free will. Everyone is plagued by temptation because of Satan, and everyone has the choice of right and wrong. The choices that we make define our character, which will be judged when we die. Quite simply, these choices dictate whether we go to Heaven or Hell.
And, Jesus and Mary were both sinless. Jesus was baptized by John the Baptist as an example to others, and as a start to his ministry.
Any other questions about Catholicism, feel free to ask. After 14 years of Catholic school, I can probably help you out! | | 0 @ 22-07-2007 06:27 deej462 | 17 posts

| has anyone mentioned Sanskrit yet? Its far more practical and logical than an western idea of religion...
Get this, a religion that is actually based on fact...and can perform REAL "miracles".....ever wanted to cure yourself of heart disease? Its entirely possible, and you dont even have to pray or anything condescending like that. | | 0 @ 29-07-2007 01:14 HeywoodJablowme | 45 posts
