I feel more comfortable with Catholicism but the corruption/decline makes me hesitant looking at Orthodoxy's growth and ability to stay traditional
I was really leaning heavy towards Rome before all this latest shit
My issue is I don't know if the sedes are correct or not. If there have actually been contradictions and popes cant be heretics, then how can the current popes be popes
youd have to have some talmudic understanding of it saying that they still have jurisdiction even though theyve excommunicated themselves

I've been trying to understand Classical Theist's takes on it, but its very complicated and I can't tell who's correct
which way fellas
or gregorian papal chants
Gregorian Malchants
this orthomonk video is so soothing
an ortholarper sent it to me last night
The orthodox are a little too loose on abortion and divorce for me tbh
i think it varies from church to church but yeah i agree
Libcaths everywhere tho..
True. But they are going directly against the Catholic Church when they hold the beliefs they do as libcaths
Well one catholic postition that might work is basically just saying that history will bear out that these popes / liberals were heretical, and that they'll be anathematized later. However you could argue the sacraments are still valid and they still have jurisdiction insofar as they arent heretical
They meaning the heretic popes, bishops and priests
I feel like the issue with sedes is theres no path to church restoration
get active in your local czatholic community and start getting involved as the layity
sign up to orgs start conversations
do charity
Yeah I think the best position might just be to say the sacraments / righteous clergy are still fully authorized but the demons just need to be anathematized and purged
He fought the demons, we can too
@NormanLord Can you explain the significance and purpose of the rosary please? I’m just recently trying to begome gadolic as well and I was given one by a member of the church.
The Rosary is an old form of prayer that lots of Catholics do every day using the beads. It has ancient roots in the Davidic Psalter and while it might seem a bit complicated at first its very straightforward.
This is an in depth guide and I'll post a short "how to" one in a second
^Here's a short guide, just note two things, there's a typo on the Hail Holy Queen, it says "our" instead of your.
And then with the mysteries the old order was different which I can post in a second.
For learning the mysteries I would start by just learning one set of them to pray first, thats what I did.
If you read the guide I posted above it should make things a lot clearer though
If you have any questions feel free to ask, I remember I was super confused starting out
I really need to get a roasary
you can pray it without the beads, but I'm sure you can find some nice cheap ones online or at a catholic store. You could also use something make shift with ten knots on it or something
Ye might be some of my grandads stuff floating around. Need a crucifix too
my grandmother paypigged me a bunch of stuff like that and gave me a bunch of family heirlooms because im basically the only catholic left in our family
