Marian heresies, for example, which spread like wilfire through feminist and feminist-vulnerable enclaves throughout the modern Catholic world

Not talking about the basic stuff I should add (that Mary was mother of Christ and blessed among women is Sola Scriptora in itself, and immaculate conception/perpetual virginity is pretty old tradition, but not necessarily a dealbreaker even if I don't buy it), I'm talking hardline Servite bullshit like Mary being an equal and Co-redemptrix with Christ.

Yeah, but that stuff like co-redemptrix isn't found in the fathers.

Sola scriptura non est nuda scriptura. It's an extremely important distinction. Idk about reformed circles, but when you read the introduction of the Formula of Concord, they explicitly state that the fathers are not to be removed, but to be read and considered and they even include an entire document in the Book of Concord solely quoting the fathers. People forget that Luther had a degree in Patristics (AKA "sentences" back then).

What we see in the fathers for Marian dogma are semper virgo, theotokos, immaculate purification/conception (differs among fathers and appears earliest in the 300s, cit. Ambrose for example), and the Assumption (the Assumption itself is the earliest mention of this to my knowledge, though I may be wrong).

People also forget that Luther believed in Immaculate Purification, Semper Virgo, Clauso Utero, and a number of other historical traditions. He simply didn't bind peoples' consciences to the doctrines.

Let's stop with this over here tho. We can always move to <#557361162292035609> if we want to discuss this

But again, why would anyone care about a random monk that came up with some heresies, broke his bows, and married a nun?

Annunciation on last sunday

I'm beginning to understand why so many people are hoping that judgement day comes sooner rather than later 😦 https://www.advocate.com/hiv-aids/2017/9/27/27-reasons-you-should-date-hiv-positive-man-right-now#media-gallery-media-0

A gem from St Augustine that perfectly reflects the modern world:

"We are all human and all indulgent to our own faults; and what our own will leads us to do we attribute to a necessity of nature. It is as though a young man were to say, I am over-borne by my body, the glow of nature kindles my passions, the structure of my frame and its reproductive organs call for sexual intercourse"

Wow.

It's almost like Christianity is related to some form of divine, objective Truth.

🤔

She’ll report it watch

Elaine sounds like an equally boomer name; wouldn't be surprised if it's a really ham-fisted "raid".

@Redpill Knight I just went over those "reasons"

And remember that these things are not just a small amount of crazy people. These are huge communities, which are constantly glorified by everyone, protected and enouraged to be taht way

Thanks, democracy

Great Canon from St.Andrew of Crete is really wholesome

It is really touching

My prot wife makes a point to go the the Great Canon with me every year. It's a beautiful thing.

I met Jacob Rees-Mogg this evening.

I think I upset him.

I asked him if he was alarmed by the demographic shift, and he said he "profoundly disagrees that such a replacement exists".

Then everybody clapped (literally).

Then he gave a virtue signalling speech about religious and racial tolerance.

Easy for him to say, growing up in sunny rural Somerset.

I would like to see him say the same thing after spending 20 years in northwest London, with the 12% Christian population and 5% white British population.

Then somebody in the crowd likened me to Tommy Robinson under their breath.

The so-called "Conservative" Party are the most spineless, bourgeois snobs in the world.

so the most conservative man at the conservative party is a mindless liberal

lmao look at the state of england

(((conservatives)))

How can they deny the replacement? Like you can just look at basic population data.

It's not a matter of opinion

They know it is a fact, they just don't care
