A Church is asexual.  Now you've really amazed me with how dominated you are by your Napoleonic complex.  \n\nIn the fields of psychology and psychoanalysis, Napoleon complex (or Napoleon syndrome) is a colloquial term used to describe a type of inferiority complex suffered by people who are short. The term is also used more generally to describe people who are driven by a perceived handicap to overcompensate in other aspects of their lives.\n\nAlfred Adler pioneered the psychological work on inferiority complexes, and used Napoléon Bonaparte as an example of someone who he thought was driven to extremes by a psychological need to compensate for what he saw as a handicap: his small stature (though in actuality, Napoleon's particular shortness is a myth; he was in fact slightly over 168 cm, or 5 ft 6 in). Typically people with this complex will compensate in many ways, reaching beyond their personal performance. A person with a Napoleon Complex may set pictures in their home to lower levels and make other such accommodations which will enable them to feel taller in their surroundings.\n\nCompensatory behavior exhibited by those with a Napoleon complex may also include being overly aggressive or argumentative and a need to over-achieve, which all serve to give the person a sense of greater self worth.\n\nAn example of somebody with the Napoleon Complex is the character Curley in John Steinbeck's "Of Mice and Men". Curley finds the need to prove himself by fighting larger men, such as Lenny.

I'd kneel down, and pray asking God,"What does this all mean?"

For the same reason people are so critical of the Protestant church, a small minority of us go overboard, and the rest of us pray the price.

Technically, we are asking the saints to intercede with God on our behalf, not praying to them. You are correct, though, most people don't get it and that is a problem. Most people go to church out of habit and just do things without thinking about them--not a good practice at all! There is a fine line between worshiping Saints and asking for intercession!

It's like 86% of our country call themselves christian but dont follow God's word on the poor , the answer should be non-compassionate conservatives. since their so called faith based initiatives have come about there are 40% more people in need since then it obviously isnt working. but just cause you add the word faith doesn't mean it is so.

There are at least three different broad groups struggling for power.  It does look like the ones taking over in the south seem to support Jihad.

Maybe everyone's form of prayer is different. I was brought up catholic and was taught a specific way to pray but I've long abandoned that and simply have a one on one with the man upstairs when I'm in a position to fully appreciate the beauty of the creation before me, like when I'm walking in the park and the sun is setting or when the waters of a lake are so still it seems like someone laid a giant mirror on the ground. I also write on my computer and confide to God all the things I would a very close friend. Prayer doesn't have to be on your knees with your hands folded. It can be as simple as a thought. Possibly even an action. I think many people have forgotten to seek God within ourselves rather than extrovertly.

Perhaps 24% claim to be catholic but in reality only 10% practice (or even know) their religion.

They need one forum for Christians only and one for atheists/agnostics.
