Fucking imprison all people with anime pfp

Don't curse

Worse individuals on this server

Stop

@Asdrubal They are an easy target if they are illegals, this will cause them to feel they have a backing and a place. The only part that is strange about it is that usually they are known for being quite Christian in their beliefs.

@mamajean5 They’re Christian-in-name only.

>talk about and cite religious philosophies
>lie, cheat, and steal the whole way through

Their actions more-or-less outweigh their incumbent beliefs.

@Asdrubal 👺

No blasphemy of this server here!

@Deleted User Yes actions are important, I'm just referring to the main belief system in their country, not saying they are all good Christian folk.

Oh I'm aware.

A lot of Hispanics are great Christians, I really admire them for it

By Hispanics, do you mean Iberians or Latinos?

Both if I remember correctly

I would agree with you on the former.

I'd disagree on Latinos, anyway.

Just in my experience at least

But I live in NY

So I am not the most experienced with that type

But Mexico had the Cristeros war which inspired a lot of Christian movements in Europe

Like the Rexists

Lot of good that did for their contemporary social sphere.

Latinos are strong Christians

@Leto Atreides II NO I DON'T WANNA BE A STRAWBERRY NOOOOOOO

latinos strong christians

Because they sold their souls to Satan. Makes sense there are a bunch of sickos running around in Hollywood, this practice of harming children for Satan has been going on for hundreds of years

lol

lol

satan means truth in sanskrit @mamajean5

@Deleted User Tajik, I wish to ask a question.

hey @Deleted User

Are there any Orthodox communities remaining there.

Yes. @Deleted User

Good, good.

Russian and native mix, some just Russian migrants.

You guys gotta protect them.

There's actually special laws just for them.

And there's no barriers against them when it comes to building churches and what not.

Great.

Good to hear.

Sadly the evil Protestant Baptist types have been flooding central asia and the east in general, with their false gospel and cultureless/tradition less ways.

Have any of you heard of Scientology?

@Eoppa ??? ok 1.31 bil gonna die... no sweat of my brow -

Well my point is you have no precedent sir

How you gonna feel when we pull out the Catholic death squads

@Eoppa get a job

Done

get a job

Price clerk gang rise up

Are you trying to pretend I'm some NEET anti social neckbeard larping or something?

Imagine being paid to be a clerk and not devoting yourself to almighty God 27/4.

smhsmhsmh

Tru

you're a catholic

you don't believe in god

Imagine being a GAY and PEDO Catholic and not a CHAD Orthodox.

yeah

unironically yes

Cringe

DURRR CRINGE DURRRRR CRRINGE!!

Truly sinners will use non arguments

Lies to justify rejecting Christ

Being Catholic is better than being Atheist

At least most Catholics reject the Vatican

Catholicism is cring, embrace the C of E high church

You can't reject the Vatican if you're an honest catholic

I've never met a Catholic that follows the vat

based anglican

catholics worship the pope as god

all catholics are heretics

do they

Sorry to tell you, vicar of Christ doesn't mean pope is christ

That's literally what the word apostle means anyways, representative of Christ

why shouldn't i be a gnostic @Eoppa

Because it's heresy

I think Christ would happily grab a hammer and cave the pope's head in.... not even an opinion at this point.

why is it heresy @Eoppa

First of all because Salvation through knowledge is anti biblical

Second, declaring the material evil is anti biblical

Third, it's against the apostolic church

Why is Salvation through knowledge anti-biblical

Because salvation is through grace

Even if you said something like, "but we gain salvation through knowing God" (not even gnostic), I would respond that the bible shows us that even demons know God.

So salvation is the Christian concept of saving non-christians from being a stray from God yes?

How do you save non Christians without them knowing what God is or if God exists?

How do you save non christians without them existing to begin with
Therefore, people existing is what saves them

This is literally the same argument lol

You lost me

I'm just asking what the difference between knowledge as salvation and grace as salvation

What I mean is knowledge of some spiritual principle or such itself can get you to heaven

Rather than God granting grace

That's a dangerous concept

lol

What's so dangerous about God granting grace

He can do whatever he wants

God isn't what you choose god to be

Or your church

God is God

Stop attributing what you can't prove to God

How is that a dangerous concept?

Knowledge of a spiritual principle or practice is part of worship is it not?

it alone cannot get you into heaven

mortal sins exist

hello?

demons know spiritual principles and so does satan

What does demons and Satan knowing that have to do with anything

They stood against God did they not

If I commit a mortal sin is there no redemption I can attain through worship and changing my actions?

@Deleted User I'm not saying granting grace is dangerous

That's the opposite of what I said

@Doktor Goon you have no grace at all, that's the point. Without grace you will not enter heaven no matter how well you think you act. All without faith is sin.

So once I've committed a sin I might as well not bother no matter how much I want to redeem myself in the eyes of God?

You shouldn't bother trying to live a pious life by yourself without God, that's just prideful, you can't do it

God offers grace to all

But gnostics believe in God don't they

So do demons

And?

That doesn't grant salvation

it does have to do with everything since ur saying that the mere knowledge of the principles constitutes grace

Gnostics believed in reaching some sort of spiritual enlightenment, reminiscent of eastern stuff

Is spiritual enlightment a bad thing?

No

They believed that constituted salvation

That's the main reason why it's heretical

By itself it could stand as it's own religion, but it tries to hold a claim to the bible and such

They were the first Christians were they not?

No

That would be the Apostles

You know what I mean

I do

And its incorrect

They were an early heretical sect

What I'm saying is the Apostolic church was first, it's the church Christ founded and it carries infallible authority down the line of succession from the Apostles

What's your sect if you don't mind me asking?

he likes touching kids

so catholic

I figured as much

Eoppa do you acknowledge that the Church has been corrupted?

One could argue for sedevacantism

But the church itself no

But the orthobros can't argue against what I'm saying

This is when we were not in schism

I don't get why orthodox peeps are so obsessed with accusing me of sexual degeneracy

I follow the teachings of St John Chrisostym when it comes to sex

You guys love him, I know that

"For you will be expelled from the synagogues, and the time is coming when those who kill you will think they are doing a holy service for God."
Isn't this how evil operates? Pretend as if its good? Isn't the most adequate way satan can get people away from god is to make them think they're not worshiping him, but god himself?

Sure? This doesn't apply though

it does

the catholic church is literally the anti christ

The pope is not God

Never claimed so

That's heresy

yes but they think that the pope and the church is the best representation of the whole religion

so practically its the same thing

Yes, but also not at all

?

The pope may hold authority, but there have been very few ex cathedra statements by a pope. That's even if he's a valid pope.

Eoppa

You aren't required to follow everything the pope says

That's just not Catholic doctrine at all

You do realize that majority of catholics aren't AS educated on theology as scolars and theologians are? Most people do think that majority of stastements and things put out by the catholic church is in correspondence with the bible and the whole religion

I can say the same about orthodoxy

What's your point

The church still holds infallible authority

My point is that the catholic church is the anti christ

Its been corrupted by satan

It has not

The Vatican yes, but not all Catholics.

This has been prophecized in the bible

Its been predicted and its come true when it comes to the catholics

Its not, this is prot tier stuff

Catholics for the most part are extremely traditional. It’s just the Vatican that gets all the attention

Have you read the verses about the last days on earth? Have you read what the bible says about the anti christ

its literally identical to the catholic church and its actions

It's not, this has been repeatedly debunked

While i agree that Orthodoxy is the superior church i will say that the Catholic church is not all horrid

how

If anything it would be an antipope

You have to present an argument for me to debunk specifically sir

you said that the idea of the catholic church being the anti christ has been debunked so im asking how

The Pope is a bitch

Fuck the pope

All my niggas hate the pope

(modern pope)

Pope Urban II was alright

It's something addressed many times

I'm trying to ask what argument you want debunked

Typically it comes from people saying the pope claims to be God

That's wrong

Which argument

@Eoppa Does the pope claim to be a mediator between God and Man?

Or a representitive?

In a way, but not in the sense of the verse you mean

Because mediators obviously exist, just not for grace

lmao no

I think the Pope is more just to give order to the Church and make sure subordinates do not preach heresy

The word apostle literally means a mediator of Gods message

@Eoppa Would i be correct?

The pope holds infallible authority

But that's also a duty

apostle

n.
One of a group made up especially of the 12 disciples chosen by Jesus to preach the gospel.

Wikipedia got me like

Yes Doctor?

Exactly

Preachers are not mediators

Theyre just (generally) more knowledgeable

Jesus gave them infallible authority in that, whatever they say, he says

They mediate his words

That's what I mean, the Pope is a mediator in the same sense any Apostle or church function you may name is

That verse was in the context of grace

But I'm going to take a shower

So have fun

Yea im never going to accept that train of logic

But as long as you follow Christ and try to be the best christian you can, i will respect you regardless of denomination

inb4 catholic egoists come screeching in "muh protestants go to hell"

Epic

African Christians on some shit

"who became popular in 2010 for having a phone call with Jesus Christ"

Im sorry what

Oh dude African pastors are outrageous

There was one I read about who was claiming he could save women by fingering them and shit I think

lmao

Or it was blowjob related I can't remember but it was one of the two

It is considered good luck and strength in Liberia to carry a woman’s severed genitals in your wallet.

We should trust the people who were Kings.

I'd say you gotta be a lucky and strong nigga to aquire such an item in the first place

The entire county is in civil war.

What else is new?

South Sudan.

Yeah you right

question: is there any value for an agnostic to read the bible?

No

Read the Quran instead

Is there any value for an agnostic to read ancient mesopotamian religious texts?

I'd argue yes

@sabrinaisheresometime ss yes

Quran is theologically shitty

They have no prophecies so they have to resort to saying that "People will get together" <- this prophecised phones and social media lmao

The bible is not comparable to some random ancient mesapotamian text, even if you don't believe in the bible, it has much more significance and value

Ok

Both of my parents read it and I kind of want to get a better idea of it
