How much money does the haram in Mashhad get?
How much money does the Emam Reza shrine in Mashhad get a year? I'm talking about like in donations or rent, or however they get money. Is it true it's the wealthiest religious establishment after the Vatican City? With all its money, what does it do? Does it just fund Hezbollah and that's it? Do they do any charity work?

LOL! You could write to the Vatican, but I would be very surprized if they would even acknowledge your letter. MP: Have Him over for dinner & give Him a place to sleep. Then ask Him to settle, once & for all, what is the real deal about how people should treat gays.

If you received a kidney donation from someone who was later made a saint
If you received a kidney donation from someone who was later made a saint?
How would that work vis-a-vis the whole "relic" thing? Would the Vatican expect you to give the kidney back? Would you get joint custody? Visitation rights? Thanks in advance.

Hate to be Mr. Buzzkill but you'd be dead long before they became a saint. You get a star anyways though for the lulz

I am sure that second hand kidneys are specifically excluded by the canonization book of rules.
4 :
I don't believe your body would also be considered a relic, since you merely were the donor of an organ, nor would the Vatican ask for your kidney back. Why would they want you to die? A saint is not made a saint because of his physical body, but because of his belief, his trust in God (or all of the above) and devotion. For example: If I eat chocolate doesn't mean that I also know how to make it. If I went to church doesn't mean I'm a priest. If I watch television, it doesn't make me a TV executive. It ultimately comes down to you as an individual whether you are worthy of becoming a saint.

Why did protestant power and influence decrease ever since creation of USA
Why did protestant power and influence decrease ever since creation of USA?
It's Freemason's-jesuit--vatican axis working to destroy all non-catholics.At the time of founding USA was 99% protestant,today it has decreased to 50%.Number of catholics has increased from less than 1% to 25%.This is despite the fact that there are more Christian preachers in the US than in any other country. Same is the case with other protestant nations like UK,Germany,Holland etc. to?...epic fail!!! neet undiluted "catholicism"!!!.Yes everybody knows how pure it's! To mary contrary...Protestant revolution was not the origin of protestantism.The first protestant church was the apostolic church. (the church depicted in new testament do not pray to "saints" or use statues\images in prayer worship.) Thus it was protestant in essence. Later in 4th century constantine the roman emperor made christianity the official religion of roman empire.But majority in his empire was still pagan and they found it hard to forgo of their old idolatrous practices. So they changed the names of their old idols to "christian" ones and started praying to them . This came to be known as "intercession to saints" and is still practiced by catholic and orthodox "christians". Iconoclastic movement of 7th century was against this practice, later protestant revolution (15-16th century) was waged mainly against this practice. Thus when constantine made christianity the state religion ,idolatry also entered along with it in the unsuspecting name of "intercession to saints" This soon spread to most of the church,because such was the influence of roman empire at that time.But few like followers of mani ~ Manichean's (mani was a 2nd century apostle of jesus whose followers spread from persia to balkans in the west and to china in the east,before falling into oblivion probably because of islamic conquest) remained true to the gospel of christ. Later they spread to turkey and balkans where they were called paulicians and bogomils respectively.They were behind the iconoclastic movement hich i have mentioned above.Both these groups came under heavy persecution from catholics because they dared to expose the truth of christ to them.Finally they were wiped out by catholic crusaders in 12th century . But almost simultaneously spirit of god started 2 new christian movem ents in heart of catholicism itself~in italy and france . In italy they were called waldensians and in france they were called cathars . Cathars were wiped out in the 12th centutry by catholic crusaders~a mass murder popularly called as cathar/albinesian crusade (catholic church still take great pride in these crusades) .But italian waldensians continued inspite of severe catholic persecution and they remain to this day . By 15th century printing was invented and bible became available to masses . They came to know about truth that catholic church was doing idolatry in the name of god . They revolted and it came to be known as protestant revolution and were led by many great leaders like jan hus,jan zizka,martin luther,ulrich zwigli,john calvin,john knox,john wesley and many others .Today protestants number more than 800 million . In future (after the soon coming WW3) they will unite as single god's church and all people living on earth will be it's members.This will remain till coming of christ ( rapture) .In rapture believers will be taken and hypocrites left behind to face great tribulation In rapture believers will be taken and hypocrites left behind to face great tribulation(such as never happened before or never will in the future) which will last for 7 years.In the half of this 7 year period antichrist will break his agreement with jews and put up the awful horror inthe holy temple.He will require all to have number 666 imprinted on them to buy or sell.Those who get this mark of 666 are damned for eternal hell.So anybody who happens to be in tribulation period,want salvation he/she has to die as martyrs or get the mark of christ(144,000) people. I understand catholics will be angered by this, but their anger is in vain because this is the truth and truth will triumph.Also note that throughout the centuries catholics branded(and still branding) all these groups as dualistic pagans heretics who need to be wiped out from face of earth... such brandings were less effective against prots probably because of their greater number and influence. Now mary contrary please think is catholicism treally the nice,neat religion it seems on the exterior???....
