That's why many Jews did not convert because they could not concive how 3 dietys by there comparison could be just 1 man.
But it was easy for Pagan europeans could conceptualize the faith.
Because there faith's had God's becoming flash and blood.
That doesn't mean the trinity is pagan only that it's easier for European's to accept
Mhm, i never said it was Pagan.
I just stated it was easy for Indo-Eroupeans to adopt the faith.
Because in reality it was close to the faith.
Give jesus an AR15 and then we're having a conversation
You made the claim that prots as a whole still follow pagan traditions
I'm still waiting for you to justify that
I'll give one for now.
Only a jew would conceive of a religion where god knocked up his own mom to create himself millennia after creating her
Councils or meetings of the clergy. Was a Catholic tradition which was derived from Pagan practice of the meeting of the tribes.
Which was a Indo-Eroupean practice on selecting the Clergy of there Pagan tribes through election. But it widely differed among the tribes.
Also Localization of Prostantism was also a pagan tradition which helped mold the faith in the national spirit or fabric of the region.
You see this within the lesser Catholic regions of Germany.
These are just so stories
How so?.
Explain your thinking.
You take a thing pagans did and see a parallels to how prots do it know. Show how it came from paganism itself
I don't understand what your saying
Is Shintoism descended from European paganism because they to localize their Faith's
Or spirituality
Protestantism is reformed catholicism which is roman-pagan and jewish-christian syncretism. The most commonly cited examples are things like the religious holidays coinciding with the lunar calendar or whatever, but the deification of people ( saints ) is another example. If you go purely on the basis of whats contained in the bible like Evangelicals then there's no real basis for religious idolatry ( statues, paintings ) or religiously observed holidays.
It's ambiguous whether you're even supposed to have physical church buildings under strictly biblical christianity
That's why I'm a prot
Where else would you meet without a church
Well protestantism is germanified romanified jewish christianity
^
I pray to Odin in the morning and God at night
Lol.
The whole reason you are suddenly allowed to be married as a priest and stuff is just because Luther had specific german values
He wanted to slam his lovely german wife have a big german family and drink beer and burn books
Lmao.
That's also why he broke with tradition and published in vernacular or the common language as opposed to exclusively latin which was also a sin
Or at least widely considered heretical
Also, If your wondering why the concils were not semetic. Look at the Semetic reilgions they have no notions of election witihin there Priesthood.
There priesthood like that of Zoroastrianism and Islam and of course old Judism. Was centrealized and was lacked any notion of election or localization. With Protestantism it differed as you lacked a centrealized head and the priesthood could look a the bible in different interprataions.
That is a litteral pagan tradition if you don't believe me look up Preisthood of Pagan tribes and Compare them towards the Christan and Protestant model's.
But which Bible verse prevents clergy from marrying. The tradition is based on Paul's advice to remain celibate, it's not concrete
