    Memorized prayer is very important for any person in recovery of alcohol, drugs, cancer or any disease.

    Saying the Rosary has saved millions of lives for this reason. Memorized prayer only serves as one aspect of Faith friend. Do not judge me or any another God fearing Christian or Catholic... or any person for that matter friend.

    We have enough atheists in this world to concentrate our efforts on other than infighting.

    One God. One Lord. One Jesus and ONE AMAZING MOTHER OF GOD MARY.

    Peace friend and I'm sorry if I offended as I have a long way to go on my journey. Forgive me.

    Ideology

    n. The science of ideas or of mind; a name applied by the later disciples of the French philosopher Condillac to the history and evolution of human ideas, considered as so many successive forms or modes of certain original or transformed sensations; that system of mental philosophy which derives knowledge exclusively from sensation.

    Christians who hold fast to the Scripture as their Authority (1 Tim. 3:16-17) are hardly those who cling to "ideology". Faith is not a philosophy. But Pope Francis is guilty of the very thing he is accusing Bible believing Christians to be.

    The TRUTH:

    "But when ye pray, use not vain repetitions, as the heathen do: for they think that they shall be heard for their much speaking." Mt. 6:7

    The Lord's Prayer was an outline of how to pray, not a verbatim rote to memorize.

    The Hail Mary, Glory Be to the Father....all vain repetitons. Thank God He delivered me from that and gave me a personal relationship with Him

    As for the "ideology" accusation....we have just learned that it means "philosophy".

    The TRUTH:

    "Beware lest any man spoil you through philosophy and vain deceit, after the tradition of men, after the rudiments of the world, and not after Christ." Col. 2:8

    Actually it was Martin Luther who made it possible for the Common People to read, and have a personal relationship with Jesus Christ the Savior and breaking the money motivated strangle hold the Catholic Church had at the time.

    A number of People were killed across Europe for that to be settled.

    As far as the future of Christianity would look no further than the current invasion by those who are Islam who seek to get into the rocks like water does to break apart a People who have not yet understood the need to stand and defend themselves to save the Nation.
    I have decided the Tree is now infested with Trolls intent on destroying anyone who dares talk openly on these forums.

    I will no longer be posting or logging on to the tree. My time is over here.

    Some of you will celebrate. I will not be around to hear of it.

    Good day.

    Cool

    So is the Lords Prayer an evil memorized prayer?

    If so, I guess I'm going to wherever memorized prayer sayer's go.
    'You have been warned of what they will do, you have a choice.
    Sit quiet and do nothing, wait until your hands are bound behind your back,
    and you are on your knees in a ditch, begging for your life!
    Or as an American, you had the privilege to be born free,
    If you wish to die free you better get up off your ass and make it happen.
    Stand and fight damn-it, if not these just might be the last words your hear,
    ‘AllahuAkbar! AllahuAkbar! AllahuAkbar!'

    I have a few memorized prayers I say. They're not my only means of prayer, but they help me get into the frame of mind. I'm not even sure some people would recognize them as prayer.

    "But Pope Francis is guilty of the very thing he is accusing Bible believing Christians to be."

    Did Pope Francis say "I accuse Christians"? Is this being inferred? Please tell me he didn't.

    Is there such thing as Islamic Ideology? Did the Pope mean that? If there is one common thread saving this Nation from ruin it's the Christian Nation of the Midwest IMHO.

    Nothing else.

    I hope the Leader of 1 billion believers would never ostracize anybody... ever.

    The Catholic church's agenda? To bring all of Christianity under it's umbrella.

    Was Mary conceived "Immaculate"?

    "And Mary said, My soul doth magnify the Lord,
    And my spirit hath rejoiced in God my Savior." Lu. 1:46-47

    The Biblical Mary was a sinner just as much as you or I, and in her words, calls God her Savior.

    Was she a perpetual virgin as the Catholic church teaches?

    No, Scripture says that she went on to have other children.

    "Is not this the carpenter's son? is not his mother called Mary? and his brethren, James, and Joses, and Simon, and Judas?
    And his sisters, are they not all with us? " Mt. 13:55-56

    And I never said that praying the Lord's Prayer is evil. I said it was meant to be a guideline for us on how to pray.

    My prayers every night start with a memorized Hail Mary to show respect and then I can talk to God at ease if you will.

    I love one very important memorized prayer that is only for special occasions and that is the Serenity Prayer.

    God, grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change...

    The courage to change the things I can, and...

    The Wisdom to know the difference.

    "Wisdom", the "gray hairs of wisdom", amazing.
