re: Back in March Rabi Schmuley met with Vatican officials to persuade the Catholic Church.

So when it says “We were once enemies of God but were reconciled by His death” who is we? Only Christians, only Protestants…?
Also Corinthians is referring to sin and death as His enemies, not everyone who isn’t His disciple.

My point is it says “were”. Jesus’ death “reconciled” it. Nothing you’ve put says all non-Christians are Jesus’ enemies.

The tests conducted at Forensics Analytical in 1999 are consistent with rotting bread and inconsistent with heart tissue. In particular: The ortho-tolidine test was negative, indicating that the tissue did not contain myoglobin, and thus is not muscle of any kind

No, there aren't. None with any rigor and multiple objective opinions.

quote:Again, this is just not true. The study you first sent me from Imright.com was showing bacteria can form on a host when placed in water after awhile. There are instances of eucharistic miracles in which they tested and concluded it was not bacteria. I'm not saying your study is wrong, it just doesn't disprove the instances in question. Funny enough, that study was also done by a Catholic. You don't mind Catholic scientists when you think their work helps your argument. Curious.
Again, these results can be reproduced by placing an unconsecrated host in water for a week or so in 15% of cases.

Catholics don't need Eucharistic miracles to prove anything. Despite the surrounding controversy, they stuck by their objective findings.
Shoddy research by those who are biased to believe

Writeup about the one in Poland
quote:
Another very interesting
event observed consists in that the substance found on
the corporal, although slightly changed after being
removed from the water (it had simply dried) a couple
of years ago, it did not change its appearance despite
having been neither stabilized nor preserved at a
particular temperature. “This signifies that if the miracle were due to a bacterium, the material would have
disintegrated, crumbled and would have changed
appearance. Any microbial culture, even placed on the
cleanest possible material, after a single week appears
completely different” added Professor Sulkowski.
quote:
And yet, several people, who not only have
never analyzed the material but they had
neither seen it with their own eyes, have
affirmed that the red color of the Host is due
to prodigiosin, a red pigment produced by the bacterium Serratia marcescens. “Obviously, this is absurd”
affirmed the specialists of Bialystok, also because the
material observed corresponds to cardiac muscle and
not to a bacterium.

Such a great movie but pisses me off to no end knowing years later Joe Biden and his admin let the Taliban gain control back of Afghanistan. Biden should have been impeached for that and the only person who was fired was someone who criticized the decisions of the admin. Such a shameful bunch that Biden admin was. Sorry, rant over.

Whatever is to come for the future of the Jews and their conversion to Christ, right now they are His enemies. We should pray for their conversion like we should for that of all nations and peoples, but they are not friends of Christ at this time.

That doesn't explain the confirmed miracles. Those were not proven to be bacteria. Your example is like disproving me saying my marble is green by showing me that you have a blue marble. My claim isn't that your marble is green, it's that mine is. How did a piece of bread develop heart tissue?
