How are you saying saints are blasphemy? Also aren’t you a pagan? Why are you “defending the honor” of Protestants?I feel like saints are blasphemous, and that perhaps the Islamic world within Iran hates ALL Christians not just one section or another
I'm talking about the literal definition of Christian which is a Follower of Christ. Obviously Catholics would not agree but they are biased here and don't get to determine who is and isn't.What are you talking about? No jehovas witnesses are not considered Christian by Orthodox by Catholics, by Lutheran, by reformed; by baptists.
Actually yes they do, I didn't invent the term Pauline christianity Pauline Christianity - WikipediaPeople don’t differentiate between Pauline Christianity and non Paul. The non Paul non trinitarians are not Christian.
Yes I can, since that is the literal definition from a time before there was even a truly organized movement. That is what christian means in its first uses.You can’t just use the definition of “a follower of Christ” because that leads to crazy stuff like Mormons. If we call Mormons Christians why not Muslims?
Cringe bad faith take, Muslims specifically do not follow Jesus but consider him one of many prophetsHey I guess Iran is a Christian theocracy now since Muslims follow Jesus.
Nope this is Pauline ChristianityActually no God put authorities over man one of those is the church. Another one is the government a Christian in America must obey the US government as long as the government is not ordering you to do a sin.
Because one can speak foe a religion they once followed. And being pagan doesn't mean I can't defend any religion from another.How are you saying saints are blasphemy? Also aren’t you a pagan? Why are you “defending the honor” of Protestants?
See, this is what I like.I'm talking about the literal definition of Christian which is a Follower of Christ. Obviously Catholics would not agree but they are biased here and don't get to determine who is and isn't.

Either option you use, there ends up being more Protestants anyway, or just more Anglicans specifically.So if Protestants have shared characteristics and you group them together.
Why are you not grouping orthodox together when they have even more shared characteristics?
And here we see a perfect reason why the Middile East will never have peace, even under complete Christian rule from Kyber Pass to the Bosphorus and Suez: Christian inter/intra-denominational conflicts will just be the new/old reason people will keep fighting.
Yep, just like how Europe will never manage to find peace due to the schismatic nature of Christianity.And here we see a perfect reason why the Middile East will never have peace, even under complete Christian rule from Kyber Pass to the Bosphorus and Suez: Christian inter/intra-denominational conflicts will just be the new/old reason people will keep fighting.
No, that would be 'human nature,' not 'the schismatic nature of Christianity.'Yep, just like how Europe will never manage to find peace due to the schismatic nature of Christianity.
I was being facetious, Europe has definitely gotten past fighting over religion with one another.No, that would be 'human nature,' not 'the schismatic nature of Christianity.'
The Balkans are Europe, and I seem to remember so serious ethnic tension there with relation to religion and sectarian violence.I was being facetious, Europe has definitely gotten past fighting over religion with one another.
If these were the only problems the middle east had it would be a huge step upThe Balkans are Europe, and I seem to remember so serious ethnic tension there with relation to religion and sectarian violence.
Oh, and the Irish Catholic vs Protestant issues are still around, as evidenced by Northern Ireland's continued existence.
Guess the Ayatollah decided to make it official. Guess we'll see what happens now that it's no longer even 'pretend Iran doesn't have functional capacity' option is no longer being humored by the leadership.
The fucking Iran Nuke Deal was such a dumb decision.

By the fact that Iran was left with its nuclear infrastructure not bombed, Iran was fated to get nuclear weapons eventually because it wanted them and it would not be stopped. The "deal" just meant they would have to be a bit more quieter about it (and only a bit as there wasn't a strict inspection regime included), which is why it was terminated, as that obviously sounds like a shitty deal.I remember an International Relations guy saying that, when Trump scrapped the Obama deal, Iran was fated to get nuclear weapons(implying it was due to Trump making Iran feel threatened). I wonder what he thinks of it right now... lie, I know what he thinks of it. He still thinks it was Trump's fault.
Since when they are christians ? you need to follow bishops who follow Apostols lineage to be one,others are just dudes who created their own sects to become important.So by your logic most Christians also are wrong about it, and in turn your fringe opinion on this is irrelevant.
They have death penalty for being christian,tor protestant.And they certainly are not danger.So why does North Korea get so pissed off about propaganda? Could just let people have western movies without death penalty for it if that is not a threat to the regime.
Just like said - socialists.They always end in mass graves after succesfull commie revolutions,in which they helped.Yet wanted to be their useful idiots regardless, that says something.
Yet we should fight those more dangerous.Which mean turks.If nothing change,in 2040 we would have Berlin sultanate.Because some savages are more savage than others.
This is not court,but RL.Where everybody could say that white is white.Yet that's how it works in law, you don't get to interpret the law for the supreme court, but the opposite holds true.
They do not choose who is real christian,they kill those who convert muslims.Like any other muslim country.Not anymore, and Iran's Shia theocrats don't get to play pope on who is real Christian, only a clown would allow that.
They have better economy ten most european states.No with that economy they could not.
Are they? becouse it seems,that their actions serve China well.What good is property that is disobedient.
They have the same or similar language - but so have ukrainians and belarussians and soviets.Yet ukrainian and belarussian are nations,becouse they belive so.No i didn't, and you never could explain what are the cultural differences between Arabs and Palestinians even though i asked many times. If they aren't different from Arabs, how can they be a separate people, they are just Arabs.
And they built monuments for soviet genociders.Current ambassador in Poland was born in Moscov,and his father betrayed Poland in 1939 and served soviets.Neither. Israel has a lot of immigrants from Russia who are soveks.
My dreams built monuments in Izrael? or,they are part of Izrael goverment?In your delusional dreams.
Yes,secular party in Iraq is gone,and replaced by islamist.Great replacment,as great as Izrael did when they replaced Fatah with Hamas in Gaza.Where is the Ba'ath party in Iraq? At least that's gone.
Iraq is not Afghanistan, and Iran is not Iraq, those are individual places, and yet again, i don't have your crystal ball, only my educated guesses, which i think are better.
Iran has Shia jihadis in charge now, if those are scattered to the four winds, they won't join Sunni one because they aren't sunnis, so there's a good chance for some sort of secular government.
