So what do you think of Mormonism

I think brigham young's mormonism is great

I am not sure what to make of this modern retardation

refugee 😃

canned tuna casserole 😃

I think that Mormon missionaries should stop looking like a couple of Americans from a mile away

brigham young mormonism was basically a whole different religion

And by that I mean like a couple of second hand car salesmen

Haha

I'm not saying Pope was great @Deleted User 57835c2c

twinky salesmen

used gayporn salesmen

Are you a polack or what

I'm saying that Protestantism made things worse, more difficult, introduced tons of misconceptions and ultimatelly, got everything possible wrong

if catholics are dalits and protestants actually managed to make catholicism worse, does that make protestants double dalits?

You see, in Catholic times, membership to a certain social caste, did not by definition mean difference in stated religion

Catholicism didn't interfere with it

Church dogma was that "Every man should have a lord"

catholicism does what islam does

It wasn't opposed to Aristocracy

back then it promoted radical purity in a fashion that made people into hypocrites

publicly virtuous and privately drunken whores

much like their pedophile priests

Yes, zealotry was one of the problems with Catholic doctrine

All that pope commicated was this: "none of the shit we are talking about is grounded in immediate experience. Regular people who mostly live in the immediate should be excluded so we won't have to face the inconvenience and have to deal with it."

That was preciselly it's more subtropical attitude

maybe that's got to do with the fact that they directly colluded with the Roman government to import POCs

thus bringing the subtropics to Europe in the first place

But never forget that Catholic Church was way less partisan and proletarian than what came to challenge it

The "depth" of the Bible is the product of abstraction and reason. But ultimately this is all removed a degree or more from the narratives in the Bible. So getting back to the stories gets us back to world we actually experience

@vigil#3835 You are giving "depth" the meaning that masses attribute to it, namely, the weight of emotional lessons

Or "foresight into achievements of contemporary science" at best

no I'm talking about all the theological fluff behind Catholicism

The stuff that pope is defending against the assault of the layman and his immediate experience

I certainly agree that Bible is best read without Catholic dogma in mind

But not from the same reason that Atheists do

Atheists read it literally not figuratively as intended

Even if they read it figuratively they still don't get it, but neverind

Yeah it's besides the point

That exactly is the point, that every story can be read from many different angles and with many different ambitions in mind

Reading and discussing the Bible is best done with somebody who isn't a complete normie
