Gnosticism and nestorianism are heresies. This is something completely different.
What do you base this statement upon? My faith says that no religion is heresy, because all religions are under Tengri.
What are the theological origins of Tengriism?
The history of it
There are no laws in Tengriism. Tengriism deals with the spiritual connection of the individual with God. Individuals connect with God in different ways.
So how does one become connected with God?
You can do this through other religions, through shamanists, or by praying for oneself and asking for Tengri's guidance if you wish to do it directly.
The greatest worship of Tengri above all is to help preserve nature.
I stand corrected. St. Thomas (II-II:11:1) defines heresy: "a species of infidelity in men who, having professed the faith of Christ, corrupt its dogmas"
When I am feeling pious, I plant a tree.
Oh I see
So it's worship of the world.
Oh, so like, Prots?
lol
>There are no laws in Tengriism.
>Goes onto describe laws
🤔
We must live in harmony with this world in Tengriism, and we all return to Tengri in the afterlife.
(I know I once said I was a Prot, I don't even know at this point. I'm just a Christian.)
So there are laws.
Also, you know, ripping apart the christian world over marriage.
That's a law.
What is a law?
Tengri demands nothing of his children.
I'd better heard out now, Good night everyone, and God bless.
As individuals, we seek out Tengri for guidance in life in various ways. There is no necessity.
unfortunatley in china it is protestants who spread and not catholics
Enjoy your rest.
Sorry, what you describe is Tengri doctrines, or beliefs.
All religions fit under this. Tengri extends various religions as methods to reach him.
That would include Christianity. You are a Tengriist in my view.
because the catholic church is centered and obviously loyal or influenced to/by the vatican, the chinese government does not allow them frequently to convert people
so really only the protestants and orthodox can sucesfully spread
Orthedox is more moral.
Tengri is superstition and pride, not based on reason.
Prots are pittiful devirocing cunts.
i wanna eat irish babies
Catholics have Aquinas though.
It is not reason that an all powerful and all loving god should have a quality of geographical favoritism and requires robed minions to spread his ideology.
there are not many orthodox churches in china
