Read Mere Christianity

2019-08-18 17:24:08 UTC

2019-08-18 17:25:08 UTC

2019-08-18 17:27:03 UTC

2019-08-18 17:28:01 UTC  

Ew gross sand monkys

2019-08-18 17:28:20 UTC  

ewewewew

2019-08-18 17:32:09 UTC  

Yeah I guess you could read a dry, long, exclusive book about the theology of a denomination that you don't accept

2019-08-18 17:34:40 UTC  

Or you could read a short, friendly, casually worded treatise on the basic tenants of Christianity and the mysteries of the trinity

2019-08-18 17:42:09 UTC  

Dry, long, exclusive..

2019-08-18 17:42:16 UTC  

Have you ever read the catechism?

2019-08-18 17:42:53 UTC  

Perhaps it’s all about being friendly and hip and cool to you?

2019-08-18 17:43:19 UTC  

C.S. Lewis is good, yes, but why not take it directly from the source?

2019-08-18 17:46:28 UTC  

> how is someone who was raised nonreligious supposed to find a church non-arbitrarily, with no history or theology to draw from?

By learning? The answer is staring you in the face. @ninjacats

2019-08-18 17:46:53 UTC  

Read some Aquinas.

2019-08-18 17:48:34 UTC  

It might be Catholic, but since it was written before the reformation it doesn't actually matter.

2019-08-18 17:53:43 UTC  

Aquinas is gang

2019-08-18 17:54:46 UTC  

It gives a very good foundation for faith

2019-08-18 17:55:08 UTC  

I would still recommend Mere Christianity as baby's first theology

2019-08-18 17:55:18 UTC  

What are the thoughts on Arians

2019-08-18 17:55:36 UTC  

Arians are heretics

2019-08-18 17:55:54 UTC  

I remember muslims saying Visigoths were muslims

2019-08-18 17:56:01 UTC  

because they were arians

2019-08-18 17:56:23 UTC  

Arianism has been a recognized heresy for ages now

2019-08-18 17:56:53 UTC  

Arianism has barely anything in common with islam

2019-08-18 17:56:54 UTC  

@Daniil even Orthos recognize them as heretics right?

2019-08-18 17:57:39 UTC  

Yeah. Islam is deep fried Arianism

2019-08-18 17:58:48 UTC  

It takes it to the extreme lmao

2019-08-18 17:59:17 UTC  

They deny the divinity of Christ, but also deny that he was the messiah

2019-08-18 17:59:23 UTC  

Just a prophet lmao

2019-08-18 18:00:23 UTC  

The orthopriest I listen to says it's turbo heresy

2019-08-18 18:00:51 UTC  

But Russian view of Islam is slightly softer because we've had to coexist with them for a while

2019-08-18 18:01:12 UTC  

And the muslims in Russia aren't as inbred and retarded as the middle east

2019-08-18 18:01:25 UTC  

Islam better than Judaism at least

2019-08-18 18:01:26 UTC  

I agree since a point in time, Majority of the Christians became Arians, including bishops and priests

2019-08-18 18:01:42 UTC  

like 80+%

2019-08-18 18:02:23 UTC  

I don't mind Chechens for example, quite chad in my opinion

2019-08-18 18:02:41 UTC  

Big difference from 70 iq arabs
