what is a universe anyway

and started 50,000 different churches

what does that word mean to you

Uni+verse

Ahh, makes sense

A verse from Bible

And what is 'Orthodox?'

Another form of Protestant?

We are all in a book !

the Eastern Orthodox Church

Do Catholics worship Mary? Why do Catholics emphasize Mary so much?

Oh god

Orthodox is just heretics that didn't like the catholic church clamping down on heresy so they split

@GrandxSlam it says mary will be emphasized for generations to come in the bible

Mostly russia and the balkans

Luke 1:46-49

**Luke 1:46-49 - Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition (DRA)**

```Dust


<46> And Mary said: My soul doth magnify the Lord. <47> And my spirit hath rejoiced in God my Saviour. <48> Because he hath regarded the humility of his handmaid; for behold from henceforth all generations shall call me blessed. <49> Because he that is mighty, hath done great things to me; and holy is his name. ```

"for behold from henceforth all generations shall call me blessed"

Vasectomy should be banned

"My Protestant friends say that their church goes by the Bible Alone, but that the Catholic Church has added a lot of man-made traditions to the Word of God…Is that true?"

this question is from a catholic website

Look above

@EzraOldenstein

@GrandxSlam the bible never says to go by the bible alone in the sense they are saying that

Romans 10:14-15

**Romans 10:14-15 - Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition (DRA)**

```Dust


<14> How then shall they call on him, in whom they have not believed? Or how shall they believe him, of whom they have not heard? And how shall they hear, without a preacher? <15> And how shall they preach unless they be sent, as it is written: How beautiful are the feet of them that preach the gospel of peace, of them that bring glad tidings of good things! ```

If you want any “rights” you should use your rights

Or quit fighting for them

"and how shall they preach unless they be sent"

All these self appointed protestant preachers you see are false

Revelation 14:13

**Revelation 14:13 - Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition (DRA)**

```Dust


<13> And I heard a voice from heaven, saying to me: Write: Blessed are the dead, who die in the Lord. From henceforth now, saith the Spirit, that they may rest from their labours; for their works follow them. ```

If works don't matter, why do works follow the dead?

hmm

ban women

Does the Catholic church believe in purgatory?

@GrandxSlam Do you want to exercise privileges to smoke cannabis?

smoking cannabis should be legalized

Well answer my question

Do you want to smoke it?

i'll try it

Yeah purgatory is in the bible

Yeah, you will

Enjoy being senile by 50 years of age

the protestants didn't believe in purgatory because it goes against prot doctrine, so they got rid of books of the bible that talk about it @GrandxSlam

i sure will

oof

sounds demonic

Erasing the word of God

Why do Catholics confess their sins to a priest rather than going directly to God?

Would love to hear a Prot defend that

confession is in the bible man

2 Corinthians 5:18

**2 Corinthians 5:18 - Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition (DRA)**

```Dust


<18> But all things are of God, who hath reconciled us to himself by Christ; and hath given to us the ministry of reconciliation. ```

How do modern Protestants justify erasing parts of the word of God?

John 20:23

**John 20:23 - Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition (DRA)**

```Dust


<23> Whose sins you shall forgive, they are forgiven them; and whose sins you shall retain, they are retained. ```

It doesn't

hmm

how can the bible change all the time when you have the original texts

What

Old testament is part of the bible

it doesn't change

Translations? <@496999757282279434>

why do so many shitlibs sleep at 2pm

What if you were baptized as an infant but later is irreligious?

The article is 3 paragraphs long?

Yeah

And provides no evidence whatsoever

Cmon man

"But many people don't realize that over the past 2,000 years, this sacred text has changed a great deal. No "first edition" exists. What we have are copies, the first of which were made hundreds of years after the events supposedly took place."

@GrandxSlam You will likely do bad stuff

we have the original scrolls

and the copies aren't even hundreds of years after the events took place

lol

yeah, but in english

I have a question, why is the bible not on-going?

wasn't the bible written in many generations right?

?

If He wants to give us more guidance, He can

it's been a while though lol

No it says in the book of revelations that it's the end
