Hello

There is a problem I would like about.
Is respect needed or not?

Can we make generalizations?
Can we say catholicism is the pit of hell?

Very respectfully, There is a lack of awareness that there is world beyond the borders of this country.

For the sake of the salvation of the humanity, I would encourage people to go and travel. There are countries like Argentina, Ecuador, Peru, Bolivia, Brazil, Colombia, Uruguay, Paraguay, Chile, Venezuela, Mexico, Costa Rica, Republica Dominicana, etc. Below I am posting some statistics.

What do you think life is there?
What do you think people believe there?
What can we do as a Christians for the faith of that people?
SO , people from those countries do not deserve respect?

If people loose faith in Jesus in those countries, where are they going to seek to fulfill their spiritual needs? New age? Buddhism?. There is already a strong movement promoting new age, Hinduism and Buddhism in those countries. Is that want you want?

Can you go there pinting fingers and judging? Do you think people are going to listen in that way?

Do you think God Only cares about American Christians?

I believe respect is very important. If you do not want to respect me, that is fine, actually I am getting used to that. I have faced a lot of disrespect for long time now, in my personal life.

If you are Christian, what do you think is the plan God has for all the population of the world? What is the plan of God for people in catholic countries?

Missioners go to Asia to take the gospel. What do you want to do with south Americans countries?

That is what I am talking about.

Do you think respect is not needed? Do you think that shows love? Maybe that is what Satan wants, bring hate, discrimination and anger all over the world.

But also, I hope pride not take the Christians heart. We need love, understanding. We also need real justice. Crimes against innocent children need to be addressed and punished. That problem has to stop, and the Church has to face it. I do not disagree with that. Those crimes are part of Satan work to destroy faith.

But I am so surprise how people can be so closed mind and judgmental, not seen the larger picture. It is not attacking the believers how the problem is going to be solved. If we make harder to talk about the problem, pointing fingers to everybody with the wrong label, I do not see how sin can be destroy.

Thanks

Zule
