How much will an average pack of baseball cards appreciate over ten years?
If I buy a $5.00 pack of TOPPS baseball cards right now(2010), how much would that same pack be worth in ten years if I didn't open it? Assuming no inflation or deflation over the next ten years.
Answer 1:
Pure speculation and guesses.You may do better putting the $5.00 in a 1% interest bearing savings account.
Answer 2:
Well lately cards have declined after the first year of issue, because they are last years, and the hot rookie prospect from last year is just another all-star at best the next.So I would say it would loose 50% of its value after the first year and then gain 10% every 10 years thereafter.

How do rock climbers rappel down a single rope and recover their rope afterwards?
I understand the double over technique and the two rope technique where you pull through the rap ring, but I have heard of people rappelling on a single and recovering at the bottom. I just dont understand how. Is it a special knot or what?
Answer 1:
It doesnt seem like this could be safely done. Probably just hearsay...How do catholic epistles differ from the other books included in the New Testament?
What are the Catholic epistles? How do they differ from the other books included in the New Testament? How are they regarded?
Answer 1:
They are all accepted as Sacred Scripture and included in the New Testament.The Catholic bible is the complete bible with all 73 books. The Protestant bible only has 66 because Martin Luther removed 7 of them.
The books Protestants will call the Apocrypha are actually called deuterocanonical books. The Catholic bible also include chapters in the books of Esther and Daniel not found in the Protestant Bibles. They will say Catholics added them but they have always been in the Bible.
They can be found in the Greek Septuagint bible used by Jesus and the Apostles and the Codex Sinaiticus bible, the oldest surviving bible. http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/technology/47…
They are also found in the dead sea scrolls. Kind of hard to say Catholics add them when the dead sea scrolls are from the 2nd century B.C.
The only record of Hanukkah is in the deuterocanonical books of 1 and 2 Maccabees.

Answer 2:
There is no difference in the New Testament epistles. They are regarded as the Word of God.In first century Jerusalem there were at least four OT Canons in use by different Jewish Groups. There was the Canon of the Pharisees, the Sadducees, the Ethiopian Jews and the Diaspora/Essene Jews. Jesus and the disciples used the Septuagint which was the Canon of the Diaspora/Essenes. We know this because it is quoted in the New Testament. This Canon continued to be the Canon of Christians until after the Reformation and, in fact until about 200 years ago when the Protestants adopted a condensed version of the Canon eliminating the Deuterocanonicals from their Bibles. Even the AKJ originally contained the complete Christian Canon. It has been said by critics of Christ's Church that the Deuterocanonicals were never believed to be inspired and just the opposite is true. The decision by Christians as to which books are inspired and useful for teaching was decided at the African Synods in the late fourth and early fifth century. There was never a question about their inspiration.
The OT Canon chosen by the Protestants is actually a Jewish Canon not chosen by the Jews until after the establishment of Christianity as a result of the spread of Christianity to slow the growth of the new group in Jerusalem after the fall of the Temple in 70AD. Until then as I said previously there were many Canons in use. The adoption of the Canon missing the Deuterocanonicals united the Jews against the Christians was decided in the Jewish Council of Jamnia because the Deuterocanonicals referred too strongly to the Messiah fulfilled in Christ.
Some Protestants will claim that only the Jews have the authority to choose Canon but the Church deferred that decision to Christ and the disciples and it is clear through biblical research, that the Septuagint is the Bible used by the first century Church and quoted in the NT Scriptures. The fact that Protestants choose to adopt the Canon that was approved by the same Jews that accused our Lord that resulted in His crucifixion suggests the source of this confusion as from the father of lies who led the Pharisees to accuse Christ and petition for His punishment. It is another way that Satan divides the body of Christ and separates the faithful denying Christ's prayer that we all be one in Christ through His Church. The Christian Church has always used the Septuagint as Canon and never the truncated version of modernist Protestants.
Some Protestants erroneously believe that Catholics added to the Bible with the Deuterocanonicals but this shows an ignorance of their own history and the history of Christianity as witnessed by Christ's Church. The facts are that the Protestants removed the Deuterocanonicals and even considered strongly to remove some of the NT books currently in use by Protestants and Catholics. Fr. Martin Luther was in favor of removing the book of James because it conflicted with His heretical man made doctrines of the “Solas”, Sola Scriptura and Sola Fide. The heretic Ulrich Zwingli wanted to remove the Gospel of John because of its teaching of the commandment to Eat Christ's Body and drink His Blood which contradicted his view of a real absence of Christ instead of a real presence in the Eucharist. Even Fr. Martin Luther could not endorse such a departure from Scriptures and deny that Christ is truly and really present in the Eucharist in Body, Blood, Soul and Divinity.

Note:
The Council of Trent did not add books but confirmed the 73 books in the Christian Bible. Luther wanted to also remove books from the New Testament as well as the Deuterocanonical books.
Answer 3:
The second answer below is completely correct. The Catholic Bible is the original with all the books. The Protestants dropped out a few because they did not jive with some of their interpretations.So this question is like, how many Mustangs are made by Ford? They all are.
Hope this helps. Peace to you!!!!!!!!
Answer 4:
Pastor Art is correct except that the Catholic Church did not add books to the Bible. The deuterocanonical books have been part of the Bible since the 4th century.Technically, Martin Luther did not remove books from the Bible. Instead, he adopted the canon of Scripture that had been adopted by the 1st century Jews, which was different from the canon adopted by the Catholic Church. .
Answer 5:
The New Testament is the same in Catholic and Protestant Bibles. 27 books are in the New Testament.The Catholic or Universal or General Epistles, ( Catholic means Universal ), are the Epistles written by someone other than Paul and are written to the Universal Church rather than to the Church at one particular location.
The word "Epistle" means "Letter".
There are 66 books in the complete Bible, 27 books in the New Testament and 39 in the Old Testament.
All churches had 66 books in them prior to 1546.
In 1546, a few months after Martin Luther died, the Roman Catholic Church added 7 additional books to the Bible.
These 7 books were 7 of the 16 books which appeared in the Greek Septuagint which never existed in Hebrew and were rejected by the Jewish religious councils in 50 AD.
You can read the history of this from the Vatican web site at the link below:

It is interesting to note that the author of the above article does NOT accuse Luther of removing and books from the Bible.
The word "deuterocanonical" means, added later to the Canon.
