Anybody seen this film? I bought it last night and watched it. It was very touching and beautifully done. I'm curious what others who've seen it may have thought of it.

Has anyone here seen the new TV show "Book of Daniel"? It aired for the first time last night at 9 pm on NBC. It's probably the first show I've seen that centers around an Episcopal priest. It's caused some controversy though and made the news because some NBC affiliate stations are refusing to...

Just out of curiosity how many of you all use a traditional star on top of your tree? Or an angel? Or maybe something else? My husband and I use an angel, my parents-in-law and my parents do as well.

Ok, here's an interesting topic my co-workers and I were discussing at work. Since Pierce Brosnan has given up playing James Bond and the powers that be in the movie industry have recast the role again. Who do you all think should have been chosen or should be as a future incarnation of 007...

Which show of his do you like best? I really like some of his later stuff. Especially "Sunset Boulevard", "Aspects of love" and the largely ignored "The Beautiful Game". Some of his later scores are much more mature and musically complex. But I love some of the early pastiche stuff like...

I was watching a show on EWTN about the doctrine naming Mary as "Advocate, Co-Redemptrix and Mediatrix of all graces". It seems that some Catholics hold this as the 5th Marian doctrine behind the Virgin Birth of Christ, the Perpetual Virginity of Mary, The Immaculate Conception and the...

rant deleted, humbly beg apologies from all. :sorry:

Since this is a Christian board, I thought I try and find out what people's thoughts are on Andrew Lloyd Webber's rock opera treatment of the "greatest story ever told". It portrays Jesus as very human and not very divine. He has a powerfully emotional solo called "Gethsemane", in which he...

I just thought we should do one of these for operas. I'll start. Aida (no, not the Elton John musical!);)

You guys are my spiritual community now...I have had to quit my church. I have written them a letter explaining why I have to leave. Money is very tight--I cannot afford to give anymore. So I have left. I am still going to remain Anglican (I though about giving that up too because the rest of my...

Hypothetically speaking, if you could enter any order and become a religious, what order would you choose and why? I'll go first....I was always attracted to the contemplative life. I'd probably choose the Discalced Carmelites. I find the concept of a small but not too small convent...

Ok, here's my problem. I agreed to be the godmother to my best friend's first born. My friend is die-hard Roman Catholic and her husband is Byzantine Rite Catholic. She called me today and left me a voicemail teling me that her priest needs a letter from my (RC) church stating that I am a Roman...

According to an article I just saw: http://news.scotsman.com/latest.cfm?id=4128739 Sr. Lucia, the last of the children who saw the Virgin Mary at Fatima has died. May God rest her soul and bring her to be with the blessed Lady she witnessed here on earth. Hail Mary, full of grace...pray...

What do you all think of the habit that some people have of immediately leaving church directly after the Eucharist? You know, those people who go up, receive, and then walk back towards their pew, pass it and keep walking right out the door? I once heard someone refer to it as "Judas...

I am an Episcopalian who was born and raised Catholic. I only officially switched churches about 6 months ago. My parents, who are still die-hard Roman Catholics, have accepted my decision. The problem comes with my future visits with them. I told my mother that if they go to church when I am...

Hi everyone, I am new here, just found this site while surfing. I am rediscovering my Christianity after being away from the church for a while. I learned that changing my denomination and the church I go to was the way to come back. I guess I was always Christian at heart, but just not a...
