March 27, 2024, 12:55:24 pm Mark says: Shocked Shocked Shocked Shocked  When Hamas spokesman Abu Ubaida began a speech marking the 100th day of the war in Gaza, one confounding yet eye-opening proclamation escaped the headlines. Listing the motives for the Palestinian militant group's Oct. 7 massacre in Israel, he accused Jews of "bringing red cows" to the Holy Land.

September 24, 2017, 10:45:16 pm Psalm 51:17 says: The specific rule pertaining to the national anthem is found on pages A62-63 of the league rulebook. It states: “The National Anthem must be played prior to every NFL game, and all players must be on the sideline for the National Anthem. “During the National Anthem, players on the field and bench area should stand at attention, face the flag, hold helmets in their left hand, and refrain from talking. The home team should ensure that the American flag is in good condition. It should be pointed out to players and coaches that we continue to be judged by the public in this area of respect for the flag and our country. Failure to be on the field by the start of the National Anthem may result in discipline, such as fines, suspensions, and/or the forfeiture of draft choice(s) for violations of the above, including first offenses.”
September 20, 2017, 04:32:32 am Christian40 says: "The most popular Hepatitis B vaccine is nothing short of a witch’s brew including aluminum, formaldehyde, yeast, amino acids, and soy. Aluminum is a known neurotoxin that destroys cellular metabolism and function. Hundreds of studies link to the ravaging effects of aluminum. The other proteins and formaldehyde serve to activate the immune system and open up the blood-brain barrier. This is NOT a good thing."

Yes, ecumenical was coined right out of the Roman Catholic Church.

These 2 sources are straight from the RCC.

Don't get me wrong, I believe the Creation account is CRUCIAL to the gospel - but by and large, a lot of these Creation Science ministries are leavened very badly, some being runned by false converts. A lot of this is due to them focusing largely on Creation Science, and pretty much ignoring preaching the whole council of God.

Here's the thing though: the word ecumenical was first used in 1587, and it is derived from two Greek words that predate the RCC. It couldn't have been coined by the RCC. The Protestants actually used the word to describe a movement before the Roman Catholics did, in 1910. The first link you provided also says that.

I think what we need to realize is that people can be wrong about things. Getting saved doesn't mean you're doctrinally perfect anymore than it means you're morally perfect. I know a lot of people who baptize infants that I believe are actually born again and a lot of people who don't that I don't. Ecumenical, in it's truest definition, means "representing a number of different Christian churches". Again, creation science crosses denominational lines.
