Reason: copypaste from encyclopedia or similar publications where info is served in that bored style that makes it sound scientific and objective.<br /><br />I see you have been thinking on your own a great deal.

The Catechism of the Catho...Dear Fouquette Racing,<br /><br />The Catechism of the Catholic Church states, "All forms of divination are to be rejected: recourse to Satan or demons, conjuring up the dead or other practices falsely supposed to ‘unveil’ the future. Consulting horoscopes, astrology, palm reading, interpretation of omens and lots, the phenomena of clairvoyance, and recourse to mediums all conceal a desire for power over time, history, and, in the last analysis, other human beings, as well as a wish to conciliate hidden powers. They contradict the honor, respect, and loving fear that we owe to God alone" (CCC 2116). <br /><br />"Roma Locuta Est, Causa Finita Est."Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30512717.post-56992537558077324482007-01-05T05:05:00.000-08:002007-01-05T05:05:00.000-08:00Astrology is a sin??

Not as if I want to get too literal or anything. ;>)<br /><br />Personally? I *like* the Passion Play theory. Squares with what we know about the early Church and actors. :>)cattiekithttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14812680786463090032noreply@blogger.com
