some people make the sign of the cross while passing by a church to show reverence to the holy place.
la may problema if you make the sign of the cross or not. Dapat sincere lang jud ka and the gesture has a meaning for you and ur not doing it just because you were told to do it.
ang uban pangutan on ngano nanguros, "basta lang", or "mao may gibuhat sa uban", pointless man if u do it w/o meaning it or knowing what it means.

Thats why i do it. Even if im outside, nagka gidlay kos akong mga butang, naa kos jeep, manguros ko to pay respect sa atong Creator. Simple as that but meaningful.

well if ur really interested, lemme explain why---all people are naturally born Muslim, by accepting Islam, one is "returning" or "reverting" to that initial Muslim state.

thats how we see it.

things that are handed down to us are really practices...

like one priest that i know... he said, mass should only be the breaking and sharing of the "bread"... karon, naa'y mga parts na ang misa... kasagaran simbahan, nanay 2nd collection...
ang simpleng panga-on nila ni jesus sauna, karon, taas na ayo...

naa pa.... ang 3 ka mysteries sa rosaryo, karon, 4 na... i won't be surprised after my lifetime, 6 na...

u dont need to be sarcastic.
i was a devout catholic too and i dont have anything against it. i respect that religion coz thats what my parents taught me and wish me to be.
being a muslim is a personal choice.
i esp put "thats how we see it", if ur not a muslim shut up, ur opinion is not necessary.

"There is no God but Allah!"

is it found in the THEOSOPHY that jesuschrist told us to make the sign of the cross or did even lord God told us to ado sign of a cross?coz i didnt see or even hear it from the bible that we should make a sign of a cross. .for me making sign of a cross is another practice selfmade by priest AD of christ. .

GODBLESS

NO it is not found in THEOSOPHY to make a sign of the cross but the CROSS is the UNIVERSAL SYMBOL of MAN and in some religions!
