@Rooselee @ImTechnoir Buddy it’s very simple. Your story is beyond ridiculous and quite literally impossible. Therefore either you’re lying , or you credulously accepted the lies of others, because you don’t know the first thing about Catholicism. Either way …

@ImTechnoir Sure whatever you say. I won't believe my lying ears and eyes. Should I also leave my brain at the door when listening to a Catholic as well? That way while I watch them worship Mary, I can ignore and it trust them when they say they aren't. Seems like a good idea

Me when I lie:

@AVLimitanei “Church fathers argued (and resolved) about X , therefore it’s normal that we argue about (and cannot resolve) ABCD…”

The father's prove that Protestantism is true because they have wildly varying opinions, casually slip into heresy's that no one cares about, and basically functioned as American proetestants do, 40 morbillion denominations that all treat each other with relative courtesy.

@chesterbelloc3 It's not "slavish devotion"; in fact its almost *literally* the opposite, i.e., "we don't like it, but theologically we are not justified to resist it", as Fr. Hesse explained.

@Daviers9 I don't. And I'm not against the SSPX generally, but I do oppose their slavish devotion to the modernism of the 1962 Missal amd the 55 Holy week deform.

Holy week role reversal: when SSPX and sedes go novus ordo, and Nostra Aetate max on Good Friday, and the FSSP and Institute go perfidiously trad. 😏

@chesterbelloc3 Now , you can find these arguments persuasive or not , but regardless it is categorically *false* to claim the SSPX picks and chooses based on their own aesthetic preferences (ie what the NO does)

@chesterbelloc3 No they’re not, A: because of the reasons I already stated above (ie cases where they manifestly do not WANT to obey , but do anyways) , which you totally ignored B: B/c of what Fr Hesse (hardly a modernist!) already mentioned in the 90s youtu.be/fjHapMIKodw?is… (ca 89 mins)

@PerryALPHA Orthos be like “here’s the universal church”

Happy Holy Week

@chesterbelloc3 Yes, they pick & chose based on their own sensibilities - thats why they regularly refuse Communion to those who fast <3 hours, say the 62 Missal, and celebrate weddings for their faithful at NO Churches when asked by the Bishop Oh wait , that’s exactly the opposite of reality

@Daviers9 That's because they pick and choose (a novus practice), because even they know there's serious problems with the 62.

@rtcoffee123 @VitruvianGent @ThiagoM90049877 @cremieuxrecueil You: Here’s an extremely convoluted explanation for how the government is actually able to give out free lunches

Because it isn’t a bonus. It’s mandatory for those countries which instituted it. Assuming your total compensation cost is around 13,000$ you can pay them either $1,000 per month + lumpsum of $1,000 at the end of the year or pay them 1,083$ year round. For firms with a hundred employees that’s almost 8,300$ per month supposed to be allocated to monthly payroll and can be allocated elsewhere. You can liquidate cash later on when it’s easier on the budget. You people forget that a lot of these developing countries have tighter cash flows and credit lines and therefore benefit from these small optimizations lol. It also serves as economic stimulus as I’ve mentioned.

The socialists in Honduras created a thirteenth and fourteenth month. But they didn't change the calendar. So you just have to pay people twice as much by law in June and December.

@SilenicSophist @lymanstoneky “So many traditions “ all invented in the last 500 years lmao

@lymanstoneky It's amazing how confidently apologists will assert that Mary had no other children when a plain reading of so many biblical texts and traditions say otherwise.

It’s a very fun troll Of course the truth is Mary did have other children, and also that Paul was a married man. Some traditions really are incorrect, even if pious

@Tanya_Sabrinaaa @JQPublic001 Us “clankers” are gonna repeal the 19th and you’ll be complaining futilely all the way

@JQPublic001 clanker

@coal_christian2 @Gnosisinformant Lmao I hope you keep posting insane goalpost moving cope like this; similar things were instrumental in me realizing that I needed to convert to Catholicism

@Daviers9 @Gnosisinformant What crap? All those examples you gave were built during the renaissance. The dark ages span from the fall of Rome to the 10th century. And they ended with Western Europe re-discovering pagan knowledge. All these were built after the 10th century. You're the one full of crap.

Another doofus who thinks that churches built AFTER the renaissance and into the enlightenment period are from the “dark ages”. Can’t these people even attempt using google? It’s an epidemic at this point.

@coal_christian2 @Gnosisinformant Cut the crap - we all know you and the OP was trying to denigrate Catholics by implying that only after the “Christian grip on civilization was loosened”, success could be had. That I could so easily give many examples spanning 400 years and 4 countries obviously disproves you

@Daviers9 @Gnosisinformant >St. Stephen's Cathedral, 1137-1340 - 12th Century Renaissance >The Frauenkirche, 1468-1488 - After 12th Century Renaissance, around the 15th Century Renaissance >Notre Dame, 1163 - Also 12th Century Renaissance There was more than 1 Renaissance: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Renaissan…

@goppps @Vigraharaja Maybe work on cleaning out the feces first , then argue about naming

@Vigraharaja *Ganga and not Ganges

@JamieFranklin40 @Felix_Romanus That makes no sense. He is arguing that that their sacraments are invalid primarily because they lack intent , and you respond that “well, the liturgical books of 6th century England are different from today”. There is no connection between these two arguments.

@Felix_Romanus Then there aren’t any priests or bishops because this wasn’t in any of the ordinals of the first millennium.

Dom Gregory Dix put this to the sword a century ago. If Apostolicae Curae’s criteria were applied to the ordination rites of the first millennium then all would be invalid. It’s spiteful absolutist propaganda based on outdated historical research and logical inconsistency.

@Gnosisinformant The point still stands , you’re just being pedantic about his choice of one image

@rickbrennanjr I would be willing to be that there is not a SINGLE traditional Catholic who has lived and understood his faith multiples years , who has become a Prot for intellectual reasons (ie not sexual sin). Literally , not one.

It is a serious overstatement to claim that most Roman Catholics who become Protestant were poorly catechized—especially the claim made by @JoshuaTCharles that “in every single case” they “knew nothing.” That assertion simply misrepresents reality. Many who leave have read the Catechism carefully and wrestled with it at length. Their departure is not rooted in ignorance, but in theological conviction based upon where they believe the teachings of the Roman Catholic church diverges from Scripture. Sadly, the critique made but Joshua Charles is a common accusation made by Roman Catholic apologists online. However, if that claim is going to be made, it deserves to be tested. So let’s move beyond caricatures. What would you like to discuss from the CCC? And more importantly, why do I find a number of its teachings to be in tension with Scripture? I was catechized through the Baltimore Catechism—from Volume 1 in early elementary school through Volume 4 in Jesuit-taught theology—and have since engaged in substantial independent study of Catholic theologians and the current Catechism while in Protestant seminary. On that basis, I challenge the claim that those who leave are not well catechized. I am more than willing to engage directly and demonstrate that many who become Protestant do so not out of ignorance of the CCC, but out of conviction shaped by careful study of Scripture, early church history, and Roman Catholic doctrine. @ErickYbarra3 @Trent_Horn @RealMattFradd

@es_funk_nicht @AndrewHammel1 Congrats , you failed all 3

@AndrewHammel1 Shock: standards of safety evolve and rails are required to be taller as the population height increases! Who could ever thought about that... Even worse, the inspector who could be legally responsible for incidents reported the problems with safety. Unbelievable...

1/ GERMANS HYPNOTIZED BY RULES PART II The Frauenhof School was built in Frankfurt 100 years ago. The railings in its stairwells are 103 centimeters tall. Over a century, hundreds of thousands of students climed and descended these stairs without incident. faz.net/aktuell/rhein-…

@PA_Imperator @FrStephenImb If you were to plot that with *practicing and believing Catholics* as a % of total pop , it would go down. Africa only looks slightly better in this regard when compared with EU / Americas.

@FrStephenImb The statistics do not show this to be the case. The evangelization of Africa largely occurred prior to the introduction of the Novus Ordo, which the growth in numbers afterwards having to do with Africa’s high birth rates.

Explosion of the Catholic faith on the African continent after Vatican 2was primarily because of mass in the vernacular.
