Im not sure what that is in hours, but suffice is to say I wouldn't blindly practice Catholicism for the sake of checking the religious box

2019-11-07 04:29:34 UTC  

I find that Orthodoxy has attempted to stay metaphysically true and consistent, while Catholicism has been subject to international politics and Liberation Theology

2019-11-07 04:30:01 UTC  

And it's numbers have suffered because of it

2019-11-07 04:30:16 UTC  

Theres a reason why most of its practitioners are in unwashed Eastern Europe <:kek:590371888480387073>

2019-11-07 04:30:34 UTC  

The whole clergy shows up drunk off their ass

2019-11-07 04:30:48 UTC  

Its not very based

2019-11-07 04:31:19 UTC  

It's not like Catholics hate Orthos in the same manner as Protestants either.

2019-11-07 04:31:38 UTC  

There comes a point where you have to choose between Theology and Philosophy

2019-11-07 04:31:48 UTC  

Catholicism made that choice in the 1400s

2019-11-07 04:32:03 UTC  

And it florished

2019-11-07 04:32:07 UTC  

Flourished*

2019-11-07 04:32:19 UTC  

I don't think that choice has to be made, tbh.

it's just that most people cant

2019-11-07 04:32:50 UTC  

Honestly, I don't see any appeal in Eastern Orthodoxy

2019-11-07 04:32:54 UTC  

^ Right?

2019-11-07 04:33:01 UTC  

To each their own, but come on dude

2019-11-07 04:33:12 UTC  

It's a bunch of drunk excommunicated peasants making shit up as they go

2019-11-07 04:33:21 UTC  

Have you honestly looked into it? Or are you basing this off memes and internet culture?

2019-11-07 04:33:23 UTC  

All of my friends from Orthodox countries tell me how backwards it is

2019-11-07 04:33:31 UTC  

Have YOU? @Fitzydog

2019-11-07 04:33:32 UTC  

None have good words for it

2019-11-07 04:33:59 UTC  

My suggestion is attend both masses, maybe some adult education in each religion respectively

2019-11-07 04:34:01 UTC  

and from looking into it, it's very conservative and backwards

2019-11-07 04:34:07 UTC  

And decide which you prefer

2019-11-07 04:34:10 UTC  

very strict as well

2019-11-07 04:34:25 UTC  

.... Your opinion is literally less than worthless on this matter

2019-11-07 04:35:16 UTC  

(The Spaniard that is)

2019-11-07 04:35:46 UTC  

Go ahead, I'm not stopping you

2019-11-07 04:35:53 UTC  

As I was saying, go to both

2019-11-07 04:36:12 UTC  

I will

2019-11-07 04:36:13 UTC  

You're the one selling your soul to an institution

2019-11-07 04:36:27 UTC  

You're the one who's a progressive globalist cuck

2019-11-07 04:36:28 UTC  

RCIA is the catholic one, im not sure about EO

2019-11-07 04:36:32 UTC  

Yes

2019-11-07 04:37:11 UTC  

Thus, your opinion on matters of conservatism and traditionalism are worthless

2019-11-07 04:37:20 UTC  

^

2019-11-07 04:37:51 UTC  

Not very much ground to stand on when you chug soy

2019-11-07 04:38:43 UTC  

The orthodox creed is valid as well, so you can convert without jumping through too many hoops

2019-11-07 04:42:07 UTC  

@Fitzydog why don't you just become a Mormon and fuck your child wives?

2019-11-07 04:44:01 UTC  

Hell, move to Mexico, nab one of the girls off the streets, start your own ranch, and shoot every cartel member that comes near

2019-11-07 04:44:15 UTC  

There's an idea...
