Zone1 Shia Labeouf embraces Catholic faith after preparing for movie Padre Pio

[Cougarbear]

Or maybe the view is clearer. I mean you guys live this crazy stuff and when everyone in the room believes the same crazy things, (and will turn out anyone who doesn't) it's hard to be objective.

I stopped being Catholic about 30 years ago. Funny thing happened. My relatives who remained Catholic didn't shun me like Mormons would when their family members leave the cult.

Okay, if you think you are seeing ghosts, we have medications for that now... Or you can call these guys.

Uh, here's the thing. Not being allowed into the priesthood is a big deal because in your cult, all men are supposed to be in the priesthood.

1978! Are you ******* kidding me? Strom Thurmond had black people on his staff by 1978!

Also, the underlying problem was that "The Curse of Ham" was the underlying reason for this barring, that Mormons used to hold that dark skin was a curse from God.

And, you are again way off. When family members fall away from the True Gospel of Jesus Christ and stop being involved, active family members do not shun them. That is just a stupid ignorant comment. I have inactive sons and a somewhat active daughter. We have never shunned them. They are welcome at all times. In my wife's extended family, there are even, oh my gosh, homosexuals too. We accept them in as well to our homes and get-togethers. They even dart the doors to the Church on occasions and are welcomed by members. The Church is not a spiritual hospital for the well. It's a spiritual hospital for the spiritually sick. Less active people are welcome.

Being shunned common? | Recovery from Mormonism

Uh, buddy, I hate to break this to you... you belong to a cult.
The difference between a cult and a religion is that religions just want your money. Cults want your undying, unquestioning loyalty.

Loyalty to the Mask and Various & sundry SJW causes

And don't forget to religiously keep up with your COVID-1984 boosters.

And social distancing. Very important. Isolating members from one another, and from outside society, is a common tactic used by evil cults of all kinds.

Well, you'd know all about evil cults, Mormon Bob.

Hmmm..

Here's the thing, I really wouldn't have a problem with you God-botherers if you kept your backwards superstitions in your homes and churches.

It's when you try to impose them on the rest of us I'll throw down.

Yes you would. You came to a religious forum looking for it. Were you surprised to find people discussing religion?

So your statement is a lie. You are one brave dude behind the safety of your keyboard and monitor.

Do you have a lot of people imposing their beliefs on you, Joey?

Me, personally, no. But gays and women, that's something else, isn't it?

Here's what forcing your beliefs on others look like.

You talk like that was a bad thing.

My niece had her reception last year in a church that had been decommissioned, and was turned in to a banquet hall.

We have lots of abandoned churches, and frankly, I look forward to the day when Churches are like Pizza Hut buildings, all repurposed to be something else now, but you can tell what they used to be.

Seeing as so many seemingly intelligent people believe in and support the duopoly, it is not surprising that there are those who embrace various supernatural explanations.

You only have two choices. You either worship the creator or you worship the created.
