If dirty hands give you money, it’s still money.
Thats the sin of avarice
You’re being petty and dishonest at this point. It’s a metaphor. Your own Pope is a modernist and heretic according to most, yet you still submit to his authority. It’s the same line of reasoning.
There it is
There’s nothing left to say. You just want me to be angry. God bless you, friend.
oof

@Deleted User if you have questions about the Catholic faith you're welcome to join the server "Catholic Community Chat"

@Vincentius Hey sorry for the ping but, you seem pretty knowledge about Catholic teachings. I'm a Protestant but, is there anything resource-wise you'd recommend for someone who wants to give Catholicism a fair shake?
Of course. The best place to start is the Catechism. There's many different versions due to developments over time but I personally recommend the Catechism of the Council of Trent since it was written in response to the rise of the Protestant revolt. You should be able to find a free PDF online. In terms of websites there's vatican.va which contains important magisterial documents, catholic answers website catholic.com for various questions, newadvent.org that provides various works connected to the church (church fathers, ecumenical councils, St. Thomas Aquina's *Summa*, etc) and of course you can find the rosary prayer anywhere. You're also welcome to join the server i linked above, lmk if you need anything else.
Thank you so much for the quick response. I'll start to go over some of these in the morning. God bless!
@Deleted User Alright. If you ever want to know more about Orthodoxy, don't let the bitterness from those inside or outside of it sway your opinion too much. Religion is naturally a touchy subject.
I can link you some people worth watching or servers worth joining.
One thing we have in common between us Roman Catholics and Orthodox Christians is St. Benedict
Reason I say that is because he's one of my favorites
St. Benedict is pretty cool. My priest took that name.
I took Saint Peter's name when i was confirmed
Do you guys think once Carlo is cannonized he'll be the patron saint of gamers?
Who?
Carlo Acutis. Young Catholic boy who died from leukemia in '06 and was beatified recently
How is he a gamer
Wow thats really sad to hear
Hope he's with God now
Goodness guys
My parents think that watching the mass on tv is valid
And when I said, "its not actually the mass happening right now in our home, thats not possible" they told me that Im telling them that they are going to hell for doing so 🤦♀️
Boomers are fucking stupid
Obviously its a good thing that we watch the mass on television, but to say it is a legitimate form of mass is false
I mean, I'd say that it's better than nothing, no?
It is better than nothing, but to say it is legitimate is false
You cant just record the concecration of the hoast and that means it happens again
Its not possible
you can't receive through a TV screen
Exactly
And my parents have the audacity to tell me that when I said what I said to them that I meant that they are going to hell for not going to church
This is just ignorance
They wont even let me finish explaining to them that the mass isnt something you can just watch on TV
