“One would look in vain for ‘religion’ in the original forms of the world of Tradition. There are civilisations that never named their gods or attempted to portray them - at least this is what is said about the ancient Pelasgians. The Romans themselves, for almost two centuries, did not portray their deities, at most they represented them with a symbolic object. What characterises the primordial times is not “animism” but rather the idea or perception of pure powers, adequately represented by the Roman view of the numen. The numen, unlike the notion of the deus, is not a being or a person, but a sheer power that is capable of producing effects, of acting, and of manifesting itself. The sense of the real presence of such powers, or numina, as something simultaneously transcendent and yet immanent, marvellous yet fearful, constituted the substance of the original experience of the ‘sacred’. “

The way we keep the gospels, or the councils, is tradition

2018-10-02 16:54:50 UTC  

He's an ebolaist if anyone's wondering

2018-10-02 16:55:15 UTC  

You don't know what tradition is if you think religion isn't tradition

2018-10-02 16:55:31 UTC  

You don't understand Tradition

2018-10-02 16:55:44 UTC  

Define tradition to us, then

2018-10-02 16:56:07 UTC  

From trādō (“give up, hand over”)

PronunciationEdit

(Classical) IPA(key): /traːˈdi.ti.oː/, [traːˈdɪ.ti.oː]

NounEdit

trāditiō f (genitive trāditiōnis); third declension

a surrender, delivering up

(law) delivery of possession

a teaching, instruction

a saying handed down from earlier times

2018-10-02 16:56:11 UTC  

And then we will be able to argument against the part we disagree with

2018-10-02 16:56:19 UTC  

Tradition is what is handed down to us from our fathers and ancestors

2018-10-02 16:56:28 UTC  

And religion is the single most important tradition

2018-10-02 16:56:44 UTC  

And it is a strong tradition, because its origin is divine. And its divine origin is backed up, in our case, by the ressurrection of Christ

2018-10-02 16:57:06 UTC  

Uh

2018-10-02 16:57:23 UTC  

Now people can try to argue against such ressurrection, but those attempts are usually easily rebuked

2018-10-02 16:57:25 UTC  

Idk read hermetic tradition or doctrine of awakening

2018-10-02 16:58:03 UTC  

We are not going to read a book in 5 minutes so that we can anser to a claim, nigga. Try to summarize in a couple sentences the important part

2018-10-02 16:58:21 UTC  

I dont want u to answer

2018-10-02 16:59:03 UTC  

See? This is why Christianity spread so much. Because Christian authors openly challenge others to voice their objections

2018-10-02 16:59:33 UTC  

I see no conceivable understanding of tradition that separates it form religion

2018-10-02 16:59:38 UTC  

No its because me, a gamer, have surpassed all the material values of the modern world

2018-10-02 17:00:55 UTC  

Are you so miserable and sad that you have to act like a child to avoid topics that you don't like? Is your life so much on the edge that you can't take something seriously?

2018-10-02 17:01:25 UTC  

Are you asking me, perhaps, if i am...

2018-10-02 17:01:28 UTC  

A doomer?

2018-10-02 17:01:59 UTC  

A loser, yes

2018-10-02 17:02:11 UTC  

Know that in his last breath, Hitler blessed all doomers as the truest revolutionaries

2018-10-02 17:02:41 UTC  

Peoplewho never take things seriously usually live a sad life. Not sad as in pathetic, but as in with filled with despair and feeling like there is no escape for them

2018-10-02 17:03:23 UTC  

It's true, my soon to be ex girlfriend has troubles taking things seriously and she's a very depressed person

2018-10-02 17:05:00 UTC  

And in this case, I see this mild interest in philosophy, which is enough to despise the current state of the world and its lies

2018-10-02 17:27:00 UTC  

"Read Doctrine of Awakening"

2018-10-02 17:27:05 UTC  

A book about Buddhism.

2018-10-02 17:27:10 UTC  

Which is... a religion. 🤔

2018-10-02 18:51:18 UTC  

Question to Catholics, is it okay to go to communion if you are planning to go to confession afterwards but dont have time to go before mass?

2018-10-02 19:05:48 UTC  

;;play scream

2018-10-02 19:06:38 UTC  

Nope

2018-10-02 19:07:03 UTC  

As far as I know, of course

2018-10-02 20:15:26 UTC

2018-10-02 20:15:32 UTC

2018-10-02 20:15:36 UTC
