Funny I think Catholics are schismatics who are trying to get the Bishop of Rome more power than he actually has. You have basically made the doctrine useless. Who decides if a statement from the Pope is infallible or not? You? You get to decide whether something is ex cathedra? You are...

And who are you that you have the authority to declare anyone a heretic let alone the leader of your faith? What happens if the pope is sitting on Saint peters throne says he is speaking ex cathedra about morals and faith then says “praying to demons is morally acceptable.” What happens then I...

Muh social costs. Prove it, you say large trade cities of antiquity were more crime ridden prove it. Prove that Constantinople had more crime than London because of "diversity" instead of being larger, or that the other trade cities like Venice, or Florence had more crime than large Chinese...

They aren't taking bread from you, because your social services aren't breaking from that. Your nations are rich and wealthy, taking bread means that now you can't afford, food shelter, medicine. Hell I'll even be generous and say it also means you can't spend it on luxuries. Tell me what would...

Are you unable to read? Care for the stranger who comes to you, Jesus Christ himself was a refugee to Egypt for a while when leaving Judea. If you are being greedy you are sinning. The refugees are not taking bread from you or your children's mouth if they are then there is a Christian argument...

Regarding number 3 and 4. Umm you are confusing me with that morphic tide guy. I did not say Christian intolerance is responsible for all ills after the 20th century.

You are making Christians look bad, and Muslims look good. Letting satanists be out in public is not a good thing. Yeah you are leaving out a few things out there bud. You are wrong about the Buddhists. SOME Buddhist monastics think getting too involved in doing good is bad for you because it...

No without religion then all there is, is nihlism. Why should I care about first principles if there is no hereafter no judgment after death? Just do what thou wilt do what makes you feel good and try to avoid getting hurt yourself. Because at the end of the day why should I care about your...

@KilroywasNOTHere Ahh ok, sorry it's hard to keep track of who said what when you are dealing with 3 separate people. This all started with mrtoo saying collectivism was communism or something. I can understand not liking aspects of society that are collectivist or thinking something is too...

You are not understanding what I'm saying! I'm not saying something is good or bad. I'm saying that it is not communism.

Yes what is wrong with that?

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Original_sin#Denominational_views https://christianityfaq.com/baptists-original-sin/ Umm most every Baptist believes in original sin I mean even Jehova's Witnesses believe in it, I mean the Mormons don't but yeah. I mean otherwise why did Jesus die? Also I am...

Wait you realize Catholics aren't the only ones who believe in original sin right? Like most Christians have it, even protestants like Lutherans, Baptists, even Evangelicals. I can't think of any Christian group that does not. As for communism yes it is one of the ideas that killed more people...

That Bible passage is extremely collectivist. It's basically saying everyone has their place and all places are important but all of the body parts need to work together towards a common goal. An individualist would support the eye going "I don't need you!" if the eye wanted to leave and go make...

Yes I don't want you to think I just talk out of my butt. Basically I watch non Christians explain their religion and can see how they act and what they believe. I have watched some interesting Jews and Muslims explain their theology I can recommend you some if you want. But why I think...

Ok that makes a bit more sense and while I don’t think it’s impossible to be Christian and a politician I will agree it’s very hard as politicians in democratic societies are basically glorified prostitutes. Though the original example Bacle gave was Supreme Court justices on a case so can I...

I know I’m not originalist ideologically. I support originalism most of the time for practical purposes most of the constitution is a good document it has some good ideas, and if it ain’t broke don’t fix it, but my religion and my holy document that defines my morals is the Bible not the...

That’s why I recommend Orthodoxy as we knew the concept of papal infallibility was a bad idea. The Borgias should have been all the proof needed.

I actually have to disagree a Christians primary loyalty has to be to God and what he considers Just. Now we don’t have to go and try to impose the Bible on others, but if there is a conflict between Americas constitution and for example our faith. We should go for our faith, after all a...

A Catholic not trusting the pope that’s pretty ironic shouldn’t they become Orthodox or Protestant then since the Pope is supposed to be infallible?
