@BanhmiBrieoche Oh I didn’t mean to imply that you were trying to shut down the convo or anything. I’m just disappointed to hear when people had poor experiences with Catholicism. It can be a very beautiful faith when you find the people who actually follow it.

@AstroJoeB Yeah dw I'm not trying to shut down conversation because i had a bad experience. I just mean especially in the modern day scripture isn't binding. At the end of the day I'm just saying they're not evil or good they're just systems trying to further

Screenshots from a yt video (these are real qoutes I just don't want my feed turning into JW's xd) I agree that, THAT is a common thing in relgions because well duhhhh you should follow one interpretation. Usually tho other denominations won't shame people for asking questions or teach that SATAN invented independent thinking and therefor everything that comes with it is probably bad. (yes most eve eating the fruit was bad but not that freewill is a curse)

@BanhmiBrieoche Well I’m sorry to hear you had a bad experience with Catholicism. There are a lot of Christians out there who unfortunately do not actually live by what Christ taught.

@AstroJoeB Well i do think there is a harsh difference between "whats required" and what people actually do. I try not to be anecdotal but I've had a pretty bad experience with Catholicism as a community as a teen, none of it was required by scripture but it was driven by a

@BanhmiBrieoche @dankmemesdoot So as a Catholic, I can tell you there is a “Catholic version” of the Bible, but it’s really just preferred translation. The Catholic Church does not require/expect you to use that version. That version is preferred because there are books that Protestants don’t include in theirs

@dankmemesdoot @AstroJoeB ? I don't think this is true. From what ik and just a google it just seems like they have a preferred translation and want you to believe in their interpretation. I don't see how thats that different from other sects, I'm no

@BanhmiBrieoche I see where you’re coming from but I’d argue they’re an exception to the usual. You’re required to cut off anyone (including family) who leave the faith, told to limit friendships with anyone outside the faith, they’re discouraged from reading/interpreting scripture, etc.

@AstroJoeB Haven't met a religious institution that isn't cultish so I don't really feel that strong about them in particular, just comes with the territory. Institutions protect themselves. Any system of religious devotion will inevitably have scandals and crimes

@dankmemesdoot @BanhmiBrieoche They literally believe that Jesus was the archangel Michael. Despite the Bible directly contradicting it. I don’t really know how they grapple with that.

@BanhmiBrieoche But yeah they’re a strange case. Most Christians don’t even consider them to be Christian. They have their own version of the Bible and are very cultish in my opinion.

@AstroJoeB Weird, i would've thought they'd be pretty used to that. My interactions with JWs have always been kind of awkward though, I can never form a strong unique opinion of them as a group

@BanhmiBrieoche Same for me, I’d usually just say I wasn’t interested. I may have just had that glint in my eye that I was ready to defend my faith or something 😂

@AstroJoeB @Sweigart_Ian27 We’re at what I believe is the small one. It’s like the biggest grocery store I’ve ever been in and one of the most surreal experiences of my life.

@RealAceFox1 @TheTwilightDome You aren’t as smart as you think you are. You are operating under a world view that doesn’t work. You can’t have gas pressure without a container. And I already answered your question. Altitude is why pressure is less the higher you go. That is basic knowledge.

The museum was very quick to get through, you can read every word on each exhibit and be out in less than 3 hours including the 30 minute show inside the central dome. A must stop for space flight fans coming through Ohio
