christianity as a whole continues to be expanded upon to fit western values
as for my religion i guess im an openminded person so i might be an agnostic theist
not necessarily constrained to a particular religion
Christianity has been bastardized and butchered to fit any agenda
the teaching of jesus have some merit in a western world
mainly by papist ideas of putting tradition and a human over scripture itself
Oh well, I was that when I was a teenager. <:30yoboomer:521380551316209668>
and everything done by the anglican church really lmao
churches have improved since back then when they were scamming people
Do people really have that many proofs of scams happening?
the concept of indulgences was prominent a few hundred years ago
indulgences are overrated and weren't a massive issue
people paid indulgences to lessen their punishment in purgatory
in countries that are like 90% catholic like the philippines they were definitely an issue
infact had they just listened to luther the reforms would've been done and the church would've merely grown stronger
one of filipino national heroes like Jose Rizal even wrote a book that criticized this particular issue
the issue comes up when the church became increasingly stubborn to change
indulgences themselves aren't necessarily monetary
they are essentially something you do to forgive your sins
like a sign of repentance essentially
but because that can mean just about anything
but some churches abused that
things like donating to the church was an indulgence
the issue was the monetary use of them not the concept itself
infact confessions still have a form of it but they don't always call it the same thing
Anywho if the west was more orthodox/fundamental with the scripture otherwise known as a literal interpretation, christian women would wear veils in churches
*Anyhow?
Anywho is also correct
yes
Anywho is classified as slang
Pretty much a misspelling
