Do You Know The Answer?

Ok People! Let's see if you can pass the Traddy's Test of True Catholicism. I have taken some questions from the "Penny Cathechism". Let's see if the nuns did their jobs and thoroughly taught you the faith. Post your answers in the combox!

1. Who made you?


2. Why did God make you?


3. To whose image and likeness did God make you?


4. Is this likeness to God in your body, or in your soul?


5. How is your soul like to God?

All right. I'm in a bad mood at the moment, so I might as well take this, fail, and thus perpetuate my bad mood!



1. Who made you?
God

2. Why did God make you?
Let's see. He knew and loved each of us before we were born, he has a plan for us, and he wants us to be in eternity with him.

3. To whose image and likeness did God make you?
His


4. Is this likeness to God in your body, or in your soul?
Hmm, is this a trick question? I suppose the soul, mostly. But I'm thinking of the quote about making Adam in his image, and I assumed it kinda meant all-around. But since God doesn't really have a physical image, it's gotta be soul.

5. How is your soul like to God?
...Well it's not, considering we're all born tainted and with original sin. But save for that, I guess we have the ability to choose right and wrong, free will, chose love, etc... That's more of why we're close to him versus non-human animals but, am I close? We have the opportunity to spend eternity with God, one with him, etc. I'm pretty sure I'm missing something in this answer, probably something obvious.

Traddy,

Here goes,

1. God, the Creator of Heaven and earth, made me.

2. God made me to know Him, to love Him and to serve Him in this world and to be happy with Him forever in the next (heaven).

3. God made me in His image and likeness.

4. The likeness is in body and soul since I am a creature composed of body and soul and God made me in His image and likeness.

5. God is pure spirit and cannot be seen with bodily eyes. Our souls are the spirit within us that gives life to the body.
