    First of all, you simply cannot prove coronary artery disease with any non-invasive test like labwork or even a stress test and yes cad may start when you are a teenager which I already mentioned in a previous post. I recommend looking up some nutrrition information because the foods you...

    The Cholesterol and Fat Scam

    Actually the first sign of heart disease in 50% of cases is a heart attack and half of those result in death. My profession is primary and secondary prevention of heart disease and I could give you thousands of case studies, don't have the time for that right now. All the new research...

    The Cholesterol and Fat Scam

    The life expentancy of the Inuit people is 66.7 years. Their rate of heart disease is less because they are already dead when most people have their first evidence of heart disease. BTW the diet that you eat is considered low in saturated fat and heart healthy.

    All loving or morally reprehensible?

    Jesus is God, the second person of the trinity. He freely chose to lay down his life as a man for our salvation. He created us, gave us free will, wills are continued existance, redeemed us when we sinned and only asks us to love God and neighbor. Not for Himself, but for us. Suffering is a...

    All loving or morally reprehensible?

    Catholics should not be crucifying themselves - self mutilation is considered a sin. Euthenasia is wrong because it is a sin to kill or committ suicide. Remember I said the goal was unite your will to His Will, not run away from suffering and choose sin.

    All loving or morally reprehensible?

    Yes. I believe your quotes "because you'll never understand and I'm superior to you" is the answer. It sounds arrogant and egotistical because we imagine a man saying it. If it is true, it is not egotistical.

    All loving or morally reprehensible?

    We don't love suffering. The faith teaches that our will united to His Will should dictate our actions not avoiding suffering. However this is easier to say than to do.

    All loving or morally reprehensible?

    Suffering is not always evil. Separation from God is the definition of Hell. Suffering is an opportunity to bring Gods love and bring his kingdom to earth.

    They are the same. The old testament should be looked at in the light of the new. We have three readings at Mass every day and one is always from the old testament.

    All loving or morally reprehensible?

    It is a mystery. The book of Job attempts to answer the question of human suffering. The ressurection would not be possible without the cross. I do not think that this question can be answered completely without seeing the fullness of time or truth which our finite minds are incapable of. I...

    All loving or morally reprehensible?

    He has allowed suffering for awhile, but He is not done yet. Jesus showed us that you can accept suffering and give back love. I do not see eternity. I do not have all the answers and I do not judge God. I am not even in a position to judge my neighbor because I have not walked in their shoes...

    All loving or morally reprehensible?

    Since I am christian, my answer is obvious- God is all loving and perfect. I am not sure of your perspective. 1. If you believe that the christian God exists why do you think you are in a position to judge him? You are not God the creator of heaven and earth. He is however in a position to...

    The Cholesterol and Fat Scam

    As I mentioned in a previous post eating dietary cholesterol suppresses your liver's production of cholesterol, so really saturated fat is the bigger enemy. Most foods that are high in saturated fat are also high in cholesterol with a few exceptions like eggs and shrimp are high in cholesterol...

    The Cholesterol and Fat Scam

    Yes the damage may be caused by a combination of high BP, stress, genetics, smoking. The chol. is still the bulding material. The more you have, the faster the rate of oxidation and build-up of plaque in the wall of the artery. If you look at the entire body of research, there is really no...
