exactly. see my reply to his comment. Plato was dead wrong in his speculations, we don't shed the body like a snake skin in order to enter some idealistic ethereal realm. The physical and spiritual will go together in a glorified, redeemed eschaton. This was the main point of contention between Hellenistic Greeks and the Christian movement in the first century.
The purified body of Christ's holy church (the people) will be reunited with the soul (Jesus) of the holy church. I've heard this interpretation as well.
I'm a non-believer mate, so take what I say with a grain of salt because let's face it you probably know more about religion than I do.
That always cracks me up, ya know? A plumber didn't generally know more about teeth than a dentist, so why would an atheist know more about a specific faith than a person of that faith?
Now if you want to learn about non-believers, I'm your guy. But I don't put believers down, any more than plumber insults his dentist for knowing what kind of bond to use on teeth but not on a pipe. There's a lot of ass hole non-believers (and there's ass hole believers tool). I think the best outcome is when we all work together, because let's face it: people need dentists and plumbers.
When I find I need spirituality, or need to understand something religious that I don't understand, you've all been very kind and helpful. You're my divine endontists, and sometimes I need a good holy root canal.
Jews are supposed to be a Shanda for the goyim and the world they want to come is one ruled by Noahide Laws. 7th gen Jew knows exactly what I'm talking about.
universal morality
As defined by who? The Jews? Or Catholics? They have two different views of objective morality.
But Jesus said Noone come to the father except through Jesus Christ. It is important to be a believer of Christ. After the Jews crucified Jesus, shouldn't they become Christians now because of the realization that Jesus is the son of God, therefore we all have to repent and give our lives to Jesus Christ. Any human ego about who's right or who's wrong and all that becomes petty stuff. Everyone will always be enslaved by someone as long as evil exist but I disagree that we shouldn't feel bad about being a non-believer. I don't know.. I just cannot imagine my life without Christ.. I don't think I'd be able to live like a non-believer after knowing Jesus died for all our sins everyday.

Porcelain or gold crowns? What do you recommend?
Much appreciated.
Catholicism is the one true religion.
