What did Q say about some trying to divide us? The vitriol against Catholics that I see here sometimes astounds me. Do people really think that sex abuse by clergy only happens in the Catholic Church? If you do, then you really need to dig. Do people think other faiths are perfect? If they do, then they do not deserve the moniker, anon.
As a sex abuse survivor, I have zero tolerance for perpetrators, I also have zero tolerance for those who spread disinformation. By focusing only on the Catholic clergy, you're giving a pass to and are encouraging clergy of other faiths who are abusing children.
I am a Catholic. Do I follow blindly? no. Do I follow Francis? No
I have a personal relationship with God and the Holy Family. It's this relationship that guides me in my everyday life. There was that saying a couple of decades ago, "What Would Jesus Do?". That's how I try to live my life - putting Jesus first and not doing things that would embarrass or annoy Him. Do I fall? every single day but I keep trying.
You who criticize Catholics by the Church leadership, would you want the world to judge you by Joe Biden ? No? Then, why do you judge a group of people by sins and errors committed by their Church leadership? Yes, sadly, there are and have been evil people in the Catholic Church. Don't be so naive as to think evil does not exist in every Church denomination.
I understand what you are saying about the hatred to the Catholic church, bit understand it's to the church and not Catholics.
There are good reasons to hate that church first the child abuse and cover up and then the false doctrines and it's erroneous supremacist claim to be the head of the faith.
Especially the RC church requiring works (seven sacrements) to receive salvation, this is unbiblical and opposed to what Jesus taught
And then burning alive anyone who didn't believe their lies and deceptions. I hope your not one of those Catholics that cry they are being oppressed but then say that the Protestant martyrs are heretics and deserve to burn.
Us protestants believe scripture has more authority than a priest. The reformation was an attempt to recreate the 1st C church.
I think its wise to expose all the elites puppets and stooges and the Catholic church does not have an exception to that fact. They ruled Europe and were practically the Khazar before they had control.
All roads lead to Rome.
Peace and love to you my brother or sister in Christ. I'm not trying to offend or argue but evil is evil and needs to be held to account.
I agree that "evil is evil and needs to be held to account". Dig and expose the evil in your own faith and others should do the same in their faiths. Only by exposing the infections can the wounds be cleansed and healed.
Protestants believe whatever they want. That’s kind of the point. As for burning heretics what are you supposed to do when someone is leading souls to hell?
If you really believe in an afterlife and heaven and hell it’s an act of self defense to try to save souls. Now that we have pretty much given up on saving souls do you think that’s better?
Remember what God did to all of the cities that were full of sinners to make way for the Israelites? Remember what he did when they didn’t listen to him and spared people? What did Jesus say about people that lead children to sin?
I think you Catholics are the ones being lead astray, I believe the faith Christ taught in the Bible, it's doctrines, laws, way to salvation.
Them martyrs are more Christian than any pope that ever existed. If you think Christ would allow a priest to torturously murder a Christian like that you are seriously misguided and sinning before God.
Didn't Christ stop a woman being stoned to death bit your cheering on Christians being burned alive! Repent of your sins.
You pretty much stated yourself that our beliefs are at odds with eachother, very different.
One of us is right I fully believe what the Bible says and I choose to follow the church laid out in the New testament.
There is a huge difference between forgiving a sinner and someone saying a sin is a virtue and you know it. If the death penalty is allowable for an unrepentant murderer what is it for someone leading thousands of souls to hell?
I have no hatred against individual Catholics. As I stated elsewhere in this thread, I was born and raised Roman Catholic.
With that being said, I am against the institution, because it is Mystery Babylon. The second commandment to not worship idols is clear, and that's why Roman Catholicism removed it and also uses the term veneration to describe its practices regarding statues and relics. The Reformers taught the Pope is the antiChrist. That is now considered hate speech, no doubt.
Pope Francis is the father of the climate movement. Wake up.
And since you said you don't support Francis, you are considered anathema by your very religion, unless you've broken ranks and joined up with the sedivaticanists, who want to bring the Latin mass back...

We do there is a lot of wrong in the big Protestant denominations, especially prosperity preaching which I see as a giant pyramid scheme.
We need to see that the wolves have got into all our churches and are destroying them from within.
We need to leave no stone unturned in exposing the evil, wherever the gavel falls.
