I am a scripting language connoisseur, regular expression aficionado, network geek, general lover of Linux and a frequent contributor to open source software. I transitioned to programming from other work because I was too busy automating my own work environment to actually do the other work. I have a hobby interest in cartography. For more see my personal site. Most importantly, my life is defined by the grace of God given to men through Jesus Christ. It is my ambition that everything I do would reflect His glory and point people towards Him.

What is the basis for the solicitation of prayers from dead saints? In that case you may want to forward a definition for intercessory prayer in your question to give it scope. Depending on your tradition "intercessory prayer" it could refer to several very different things. |

John Wesley's influence by ancient fathers Wow I don't know what happened there! The edit system is attributing some changes to me that I did not make -- I only edited the tags. |

What is the basis for the solicitation of prayers from dead saints? You might be able to just drop the bit about dead saints because it is covered in this question: Praying to people outside the Trinity? |

What is the basis for the solicitation of prayers from dead saints? Whoa there ... any chance we could get the "intercessory prayer" in one question and the bit about "praying to dead saints" in another? |

Can Christianity be objectively defined? +1 (I'm glad I saved my last vote for the day!) for a very fine job wording a very difficult question. People have already referenced the discussions on meta about this but I think this question has a place here distinct from the definition used for the scope of this site. It might take some time to work up good answers to this, but it would be interesting to have some that explain the range of criteria that different groups use to draw this boundary. |

Can Christianity be objectively defined? @Flimzy: There are two different things going on here. Defining Christianity in general is very different than defining it for this sites on/off topic scope. I don't think those meta questions are fully relevant here. |

Can Christianity be objectively defined? @Jeff: I think we can probably use this as a base to close other questions as a duplicate of. |

Why did Luther curse those who oppose indulgences? Thanks for your input here. Could we bother you to expand on this reading by explaining how some of the other theses fit into this picture? I don't find them to be contradictory so much as very selective about what they come down hard on and what they support. I am reading that he supports the idea of apostolic pardons, just not the selling of them. This seems to be consistent with many of the other thesis (#41, #42, $67, #68, #73, #91, etc), but this would be inconsistent with your interpretation. If I am wrong, how do those other thesis fit into the equation? |
