Questions/Doubts/Wrong Practices to the Catholic Church--Analysis and Opinion

[JcBoY]

Since ang Katoliko ni believe sa holy tradition ug bible, kining mga pangalana gikan ni sa daghang sources mao ng recorded sa history like syrians which has a different name and from east asia.

source: CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Magi

The names of the Magi are as uncertain as is their number. Among the Latins, from the seventh century, we find slight variants of the names, Gaspar, Melchior, and Balthasar; the Martyrology mentions St. Gaspar, on the first, St. Melchior, on the sixth, and St. Balthasar, on the eleventh of January (Acta SS., I, 8, 323, 664). TheSyrians have Larvandad, Hormisdas, Gushnasaph, etc.; the Armenians, Kagba, Badadilma, etc. (Cf. Acta Sanctorum, May, I, 1780). Passing over the purely legendary notion that they represented the three families which are descended from Noah, it appears they all came from "the east" (Matthew 2:1, 2, 9). East of Palestine, only ancient Media, Persia, Assyria, and Babylonia had a <!--3ref=u44=xxyyyk.htm">Magian priesthood at the time of the birth of Christ. From some such part of the Parthian Empire the Magi came. They probably crossed the Syrian Desert, lying between the Euphrates and Syria, reached either Haleb (Aleppo) or Tudmor (Palmyra), and journeyed on to Damascus and southward, by what is now the great Mecca route (darb elhaj, "the pilgrim's way"), keeping the Sea of Galilee and the Jordan to their west till they crossed the ford near Jericho. We have no tradition of the precise land meant by "the east". It is Babylon, according to St. Maximus (Homil. xviii in Epiphan.); and Theodotus of Ancyra (Homil. de Nativitate, I, x); Persia, according to Clement of Alexandria (Stromata I.15) and St. Cyril of Alexandria (In Is., xlix, 12); Aribia, according to St. Justin (Cont. Tryphon., lxxvii), Tertullian (Adv. Jud., ix), and St. Epiphanius (Expos. fidei, viii).

Now wala ni sa bible sama sad sa real name ni God nga lisod i conclude ang tinood name sa hebrew origin kay nagtoo sila sa una nga kung mo sulti ka ani "yhwh" magabaan ka kay pina ka holy ni nga name. wala pa nahibaw-i ang iya vowel ani mao ni gitawag ug tetra-grammaton. NOw kung moingon ta dili makit-an sa bible ang name sa tulo ka magi sama sad nga ang bible dili accurate ang name ni God. Pero karon gibutangan na nila ug vowel mao ng Yahweh. para lang mabasa.

Salamat brod! karon akong sunod pangutana kanang gisinggit ni Jesus nga mga pulong:

"ELOI, ELOI, LAMA SABACHTHANI? which is, being interpreted, My God, My God, why hast thou forsaken me?" (Mark 15:34).

ELI, ELI, LAMA SABACHTHANI? that is to say, My God, My God, why hast thou forsaken me'? (Matthew 27:46).

Kinsa man gyud diay ang Ginoo nga gitawag ni Jesus ini kay klaro man gyud nga naa siyay gitawag? Di ba husayonon pa ni kay duna man gyud relihiyon nga ang ilang Ginoo sama ug pangalan sa gitawag ni Jesus?

Mao. Dili man ang pari ato gsimba kundili ang Ginoo dba? pero dli malikayan na samot ang pari dili mag.usab.
Mag-gara2.. Makasala ko Ginoo.

Makaingon ko naay yawa sulod sa simbahan.

kanang atong mga kaparian susama kanato TAO ra usab cla nga dli perpekto

and about RH bill

yah ilang (the church) gi tanaw ang negative and wala nila tanawa ang benifits
kay for now even the church has trouble (but what else is new) eversince to advice its congregation
or in this case the majority here sa pinas to refrain from having too much childbirth, to many mouths to feed than the resource, too much to many to handle in terms of schooling them resulting to delinquencies which the mother to most criminals.

para nako if they preach and advice strongly to the people not to have too many kids nga kaya pakan-on or paeskwelaon....and still the population is rising and daghan mga bata tawn sa kalsada....then I guess
I will say they failed to to do and time for other measures.

Meaning just to save face in the sense of morality lets just throw away something that could actually work and address the problem, and let our society go from bad to worst basta lang "moral" tah?

naa pa gyud ni HIV or mga STDs

Ani lang bro..
Kasabot baya ko sa situation ana, nga lisud jud.

Ang Catholic Church worldwide, ni-condem man jud ug ing-ana nga mga bills. There's no way the Church will say "yes".

However, kusgan man gud ang simbahan diri sa Philippines.
Unlike sa America, even if the Church in US says "no", however, their gov't is more powerful. Mao nang walay mahimo ang Church.

If dili pa ing-ana ka-kusgan ang Church diri sa Philippines, then dugay na na-pasa nga Law. But still, if mapasa na nga Law, dili gihapon mo-recommend ang Church ana nga bill.

Sa ako lang ha, i think education jud ang main problem.
Though RH bill is a good plan, but without proper education, ma-misunderstood ra gihapon na.

By the way, these are the same issue with abortion, capital punishment, euthanasia, legal prostitution, divorce, etc.. where the Law of the State and Church is divided.

mao na giingon theyre choosing that road which also include total celibacy
and are they being realistic with regard to that attainment?
then its always easy or convenient for them to quip "we are also humans and susceptible to flaws and sins"
are they aware of that in the first place and still chose to go there?

this is precisely why the church now is riddled with cover-ups, putting it more bluntly---LIES just to protect
their names rather than the truth!

have you heard of spiritual or religious vanity?

[SioDenz]

I'm not trying to defend my religion. I even have my own questions about our own practices. I'm just reminding people to think about their motives for questioning the Catholic church. Are they really concerned? Or do they simply want to be right? Some people "attack" another religion just to be right. If you're using your religion to be right, then you're serving only yourself, not the God you claim to believe in. You're simply using your religion to hover above others.

This thread is all about people ASKING questions about catholic doctrines, its either your a catholic that will defend you religion/doctrines or one of the people who have some questions about Catholic Doctrines.

Why mention about the Motives? Some people here are Just asking questions, right? Unless they say that Catholic doctrines are wrong.
Why just answer the questions being asked?

This thread is all about Answering questions on Catholic doctrines, Not questions on someones FAITH.

[SioDenz]

The Catholic Church has its own flaws too, and that is a fact kay as human as we are, we are inclined to fail. But what makes us whole is the fact that we believe in one God who dominated all over things. Bisan tingali uban religion has its own failures but, we do not dwell on it.

People who intend to attack the church with their self righteous beliefs are plainly looking on the people that have maligned to the true intention of its foundations.

Unsay naay flaws bro, ang Church or the Doctrines of the Church, klaruha daw bro.

[SioDenz]

Unsay purpose ani? nahimo naman ni nga thread for attacking catholics... unsay gusto ninyo? mamalhin mi? hahahaha...

having questions/clarifications is Not attacking, Its the same as questioning Asa man padulong akong tax nga gibayad? "Attacking" the government na diay tawag nimu ana?

Gi unsa nimu pag kwenta akong grado sir? Attacking na diay na sa maestro?

Nganu No parking man ni diri? Attacking the CITOM na diay na.

wala man cguro nag advertise ug lain religion diri bro? naay ni PM nimu nga nag advertise sa iyang religion?
