>AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHH!!!! I SHOULD'VE CHOSEN TO JOIN THE LOUIASANA BRANCH OF ALL-SAINTS CATHOLIC-ANABAPTIST CHURCH DOWN THE ROAD!!!!! WHY DIDN'T I REALIZE THEY WERE THE RIGHT CHURCH ALL ALONG????
>>18439148Hail Beelzebub!
When in doubt, just go to the first one
The trick is to pray to all the gods and sub gods ever, so you can have a chance, don't miss one tho.
>>18439148Honest question do christfags actually think any of this shit matters? Like do you actually think other christfags who have essentially the same beliefs on everything will be damned for all eternity because they slightly disagree on some obscure theological nuance that doesn't even challenge the main tenants of the religion? I get abrahamites are iconoclastic tyrants with a violent hatred for anyone who thinks differently from them, but I just don't understand how you guys can think shit like using slightly different words during a prayer or eating bread the wrong way is anything other than an autistic technicality.
>>18439172What did the church fathers say about icons?
>>18439180Papists believe this, because they have a Donatist ecclesiology where unless you are enslaved to the Antichrist king in Rome your faith is worthless. Protestants do not believe this. The eastern churches are inconsistent on it.
>>18439180>main tenants of the religion>tenantsreligion is rented out in pieces now?
>>18439180I suppose its only a problem where your spin on christianity is so alternate that it goes against the faith itself. It starts of with small changes, and it snowballs with some protties denominations ordaining female priests now.
>>18439180A lot of churches commune with each other. Only a few churches explicitly call others completely blasphemous anymore.>>18439183This is the opposite of the case. The Church explicitly recognizes that there are multiple paths to salvation and that its method is merely one that they know works.
>>18439180Good old Jack Chick was one example of Christians who were super paranoid about technicalities. He believed that it is possible to for even proper God fearing protestant Christians to accidentally anger God and/or worship Satan without any intention and they will never know until they die and go to Hell.
>>18439180I don't see much of them anymore but historically this was the case and why Europe was constantly destroying itself.
>>18439180They don't just think you're going to hell, they WANT you to. That'll teach you to use unleavened bread you heathen fucks
Sorry fag, but in the depths of Rlyeh, Cthulhu sleeps
>>18439172You are right, I need to become a mormon.
>>18439172>my church (true) is the straight arrow while yours (heretic) are the branching arrows
>OH FUCK THE GNOSTICS WERE RIGHT ALL ALONG AND NOW I'M TRAPPED, IGNORANT AND BLIND, IN YALDABAOTH'S MATERIAL TORTURE REALM AND CAN NEVER REJOIN WITH SOPHIA IN THE PLEROMA! AIIIIEEEEEEEEEE!
>>18439417I assume you’re a papist, in which case you’re citing the novel, liberal teaching of your church which contradicts a thousand years of previous “infallible” statements and is not taken seriously by anyone who takes your religion seriously
>>18439172you really like that picture huh
>>18439172I challenge the orthodox church to go a week without schisming in some way, no matter how minor. Athos is an all terrain slapfight, the russians literally stole pantaleimon.
>>18439606What is it called when you think the material realm is imperfect but there is no pleroma to "escape" to and no "sophia".
>>18440030So you're atheist?
>>18440031the demiurge is god the creator of the material for all intensive purposesnot exactly atheism
>>18440033Ok, so you're a demiuurger? Idk, if you had a belief it's fine, but you seem to have just ideas.
>>18440036Lhp beliefs sometimes believe, like the song says, there's no perfect world, or heaven. https://youtu.be/b8e_9lQhcUU?si=VAEjRK3LAlJwf04iMuch in the line of the song.
>>18439996No, just raised as one. Irrelevant though; you made a statement about what papists believe, it was wrong, you were called out, and now you've just loaded and fired the next anti-papist statement without checking its relevance.
>>18440122As I pointed out, it was not wrong, it was what the church taught and is what the actual religious people within her believe. Go talk to tradcaths about Vatican 2, and ask what they think about the plan of salvation including the muslims or Protestants being “separated brethren” (Trent preferred the language of “let him be anathema”) and see what they think.
>>18439180In practice, it depends on who else is around to compare against. Now that christians deal with muslims, jews, hindus, and atheists all the time, most have gotten way less autistic about these sorts of things. But when I was a kid I knew some protestants that didn't even think catholics were christian. And I'm sure if you had a community that was only protestants that never interacted with anyone else you'd have baptists and methodists telling one another that they're going to hell.Theologically, though, it doesn't make any sense to have these other demoninations unless you believe they matter. Christianity isn't set up to acknowledge multiple correct paths like buddhism. What you're doing is either correct, or it's sinful.
>>18440147>I knew some protestants that didn't even think catholics were christianThey were correct
>>18440147>Now that christians deal with muslims, jews, hindus, and atheists all the timeI don't think this holds water. Christians were way more disadvantaged by the ascendancy of Greek and Roman paganism back during the early days of the religion, and they STILL constantly fought and threw bitchfits at one another over petty theological bullshit.
>>18440358>the identity of God is “petty”
>>18440359I'm pretty sure it matters less than people continuing to sacrifice to Jupiter
>>18439148>strawman>targeting Christianity>ignores kikesnoticingNew Atheism was nothing but a goy op.
>>18439600nice catch.
>>18439148That's a good joke.
>>18439172Which Orthodox Church? The pre-Chalcedonian or post-Chalcedonian? The Greek or the Russian? The mainstream Russian or the Starovery?
>>18439172
>>18439180American christians seem to actually all be dualists who think that anyone who disagrees with them is serving the evil antigod.European christians seem to actually all be duplicitous snakes for whom religion is a handy justification for killing someone so you can take his stuff.The primary theological concern of the american is finding justification for his existing opinions. The primary theological concern of the european is split between finding justification for his actions and trying to increase or decrease the influence of the pope in any given sphere.
>>18439172Funny how the independent baptist protties also claim that their Christianity is actually the pure original Christianity that the charlatans of Vatican tried to suppress.
