Seriously, I blame Protestantism for just about all America's current woes

[forkintheroad7]

Just assume for the sake of argument that the Catholic Church really is the True Church, the one and only founded by Christ Himself, as informed Catholics say.

I know it's hard for some, but just try to believe this for ONE second...

It only makes sense that going against Christ's True Church would have HORRIFIC consequences.

And so we look around us and-- there is HORRIFIC

everywhere... morals are in the ditch

the economy, ditto

And just look what Trump is going through with the fake court cases Stalin would be proud of!

It all came from rebellion.. Rebellion against Christ's Church is rebellion against God.

No wonder some Catholic here (can't recall handle name) said he prefers the Old Testament to the New.. I myself wouldn't say that, but...

sometimes I look nostalgically at... some things in the Old Testament.. like God not waiting very long to do Justice.. And most people do not appear to be terribly grateful for Him waiting on them either...

So, Trump cheated on his wife with a porn star because he went against the Catholic church? You still voting for the orange douchebag, right?

Um, your premise is flawed.

Protestant countries - Namely Northern Europe, the US, Canada, Australia, are among the world's wealthiest.

Catholic Countries, on the other hand, are among the world's poorest. - Latin America, Sub-Sahara Africa, the Philippines. A couple of them are first world, namely Italy and France.

So if you believe there's a magic sky pixie picking sides, then, um, God must love the Protestants more than the Catholics.

the poverty is caused by a very catholic policy of unlimited reproduction.

sensible measures accommodated by all sane protestants , such as birth control and abortion "on demand up to the moment of birth?" allow the accumulation of generational wealth of the "rich" countries.

NOPE

Read the OP

It is true

[forkintheroad7]

who mentioned Trump?

Oh, the one who has TDS

Oh, I guess I did mention Trump in OP.. but only to mention the weaponized govt thugging him

I know that's OK w/ the dims, though..

 

[BackAgain]

I’m glad you see things my way, now.

 

[forkintheroad7]

Just because someone does not appreciate Protestantism

does not mean the person hates Protestants. And no one can point to any time where I have exhibited hatred toward a Protestant ---as opposed to his beliefs (Oh, wait, they will find something! They will find something to label Hate... forgot how they are for a second)

On the other hand, I've heard nothing but HATE thrown at Catholics

more stereotypical BS

I've never heard a priest say in a homily or anywhere else that people should have as many children as nature gives them..

then there is this

The Catholic Church promotes CELIBACY

something non Catholics seem to think is impossible and / or unnatural

Celibacy obviously cuts down on the number of large families.. or any families

Please.

It is unnatural. Like all animals, we are hard wired to reproduce. It's in our biology.

 

[forkintheroad7]

Oh, Ignored Member has something to say!

For some reason, I can't read it..

Oh, it's JoeB

I can just about guess what he is saying.. let's see

Catholics are morons. I am glad I got out of that dumb religion. I'm smarter than the Church

something like that

Eh, perfect is tough..

Could it be that in the .. War? .. between Good? .. and Evil? .. Soul or no Soul .. evil seems to be winning and you we/need someone to blame and use as an excuse.

I figure if your hating on God, the Soul Full, the hardly perfect communities of faith, you’re likely in need of an excuse to be part of the evil.
