You both make great arguments! They're both evil.
Christ is King
I'm ashamed to admit that I eat mine well done, I take a lot of flak from my mates for it.
I'm sorry everyone lol
"The Latin Vulgate was always available to anyone who wanted to read it without restriction"
What about the Waldenses they had their own version of the Bible in the Romaunt language in the 12th C, what happened to them? Where did they go? Thats right the catholic killed them all! For disagreeing with them
Thats sad considering they were outside of popery since the 2nd C.
The main focus of the reformation was to print Bibles and let people choose between the Bible or the church, Christ or the pope. The main focus of the catholic church was to find people printing bibles and killing them.
We have examples where the priests tied the bibles around their heads at the stake. When they set fire to the wood at their feet they also lit fire to the bible to melt their face. But they realised that the people would suffocate and would die to quickly.
And you're right I'm am trying to be insulting, though it's not nearly as bad as burning you alive. You honestly believe your church has done no wrong in its history, well you're an idiot for that.
From the finest fibre of my being FUCK YOUR CHURCH! MAY CHRIST COME BACK AND DESTROY IT FOR EVER MORE! MAY YOUR POPES BURN IN HELL FOR ETERNITY FOR WHAT THEY HAVE DONE.
The argument the catholics make is the saints are alive in heaven, so we can pray to them and ask them to intercede. We still believe Christ is the only mediator but there are verses in the Bible where believers pray FOR other believers. So the saints are still alive in the body of Christ so we can pray TO them asking things just as if they are alive on earth.
This paragraph is in the article;
"Some Christians–most Protestants, in fact–deny that the Bible gives support for devotion to the saints, but they are incorrect. The Bible encourages Christians to approach the saints in heaven, just as they approach God the Father and Jesus Christ the Lord: “But you have approached Mount Zion, the city of the living God, the heavenly Jerusalem, and myriads of angels, and the assembly and church of the firstborn who have been enrolled in heaven, and God the judge of all, and spirits of righteous ones who have been made perfect, and Jesus, the mediator of a new covenant, and the sprinkled blood which speaks better than that of Abel” (Heb. 12:22-24)."
Where in that passage does it say to pray to saints? It says there are saints in heaven but doesn't say pray to them
A little later the author of the article explains each sentence then jumps to the conclusion "This passage is saying that, just as Christians approach the angels, God the judge, Jesus Christ, and his saving blood, so also must we approach the saints in heaven."
No it doesn't say that! Study Heb 12:22-24 and point it out to me as I can't see it saying that.
*In fact I challenge you to show me the verses in the Bible explicitly saying to pray to saints.
I have just searched the Bible for every time the word 'prayer' was used and DID NOT FIND PRAYING TO SAINTS ONCE, there was prayers to God, pray for yourself, prayer for others but not prayers asking for things from the saints. ALL PRAYER IS DIRECTED TO GOD*
Prove it with the Bible not with the tradition of the elders.
The author began the article saying we don't pray to idols because we know they are only made of wood and are just objects unlike those idolaters.
The hindus also know the wooden idols are worthless, many of them carved them themselves, if we ask them why are you praying to wood they will say No, we are praying to the spirits that these idols represent.
The author wants us to believe idolaters only pray to the physical inanimate objects when that is completely false. And frankly a dishonest argument to try to distance themselves from other idolaters.
There's one mediator between man and God, Jesus Christ.
Don't you catholics pray to dead saints on all saints day to borrow some of their good works from the treasury of merit to lessen your time in purgatory?
I haven't read that in scripture, where would I find it?
Do you read it in latin? Because your pope made it illegal to read it in anyother language during the reformation.
Most of the martyrs died because of their noble cause of giving everyone a Bible to read themselves. Why did your pope not want them to read Gods word?
You might enjoy sucking the popes dick but real Christians don't
So you copy and paste a bunch of papists saying one thing and doing another.
Are you honestly denying the inquisition and the persecution during the reformation?

I dont like your church or anyone that defends its acts of evil and its lies, heres why

My Christian brothers and sisters painfully dying because of babylon
Fuck the pope
People were forced to recant their protestant faith and Jews were forced to convert to catholicism both under the penalty of being tortured and burnt at the stake. catholic apologists don't deny that happened but they don't apologise either so don't talk shite.
If I came here defending the zionists (which I don't support) I'd quickly be admonished but here you are fagging for your holy father that haunted Europe for 1600 years.
Your church is clearly one of the bad guys through history and here you are lying to defend it when your first post was a warning people not to lie because it makes the pope mad and he'll send you to the burny place.
Eat a bag of dicks papist
"You will not find force conversion in the teaching of the Catholic faith. Stop lying"
Then why did the catholic church burn Christians alive?
Fuck all the popes! Christ is King!
I reckon the big players see the war coming in the future and are offloading what they own while it's still worth something and getting ready to live in their bunkers.
To my knowledge the FTC cant demand people sell their property for no reason at all, under what circumstances can they do that?
That pic doesn't do her any favours, she looks like a leather sofa.

Lord Belvedere: There are ways of telling whether she is a witch.
Peasants: Are there? What are they? Tell us. - Do they hurt?
Lord: Tell me, what do you do with witches?
Peasants: Burn them!
Lord Belvedere: And what do you burn, apart from witches?
Peasants: More witches!

That's an interesting thought that's never crossed my mind, thank you for that. I honestly don't know how it would end up. We have know way of judging it, before the flood God said that every thought of their heart was constantly evil but they had contact with fallen angels that taught them war and sorcery.
Also that was after the fall of Adam and Eve and then cain the serpent murdering Abel. Abel was a good one, cain the bad one and Seth the in-between one. The good one was killed instantly by the serpent seed.
That's going to make me think for days but I think right now there's not enough to go by.
I agree islam is bad and they have wanted to conquer us for centuries and we just let them.
I was pretty based against islam decades ago and I had to watch as my fellow Brits betrayed our country by saying "we're all one human race", "they're not all bad" "let them come here it's safer than their country"
To disregard them as mere pawns is foolish as when they increase in numbers you will see they are united as the 'ummah' and there only allegiance is to islam. Islam desires to destroy all other religions and conquer all people's.
You Americans don't have the amount of muslims as we do in Europe, and as a brother I say do not drop your guard to them, do not foolishly think that they think like you.
Pawns are used first to weaken the enemy, even if they dont know their strings are being pulled to destroy our civilisation they most certainly have the ambition and intent to destroy us
Islam is a death cult
Ask the muslims nicely not to invade and kill us if they are just peaceful pawns.
Regardless, of your hopes for your fellow man they want to conquer and enslave us for their god, I dont care if they are pawns they are still a threat that kills non believers.
Pawns are also enemy pieces on the chess board.
if they change their ways there might be peace but when they want to conquer and do harm they are not my friend. You're only deluding yourself.
I have a Christian outlook, humanity was never going to pass this test, so God gave us Jesus a rope to cling onto to be delivered from what is going too befall us all.
The Bible says unless God cut the endtimes short noone will survive. The satanists would of won and stole our earth and got rid of us "useless eaters"
How about we kick you up your arse back to your own countries
Good point, damage control but still maintain a controlled voice over the left that defects wokism. He probably had me fooled
Edit add: its safer just to trust our people than hoping they can change
Thank you for letting me know fren
I'm not trying to defend him, I didn't know he's in the red shoe club, I was simply stating this clip of him in the article was quite good and well reasoned. I had hope the traditional left were starting to reject wokism.
I haven't purposely watch Bill Maher, but every now and then I see a clip where he talks sense about the madness of the world. I don't know what he's like in real life or what the rest of his show is like but the odd clips I see of him suggests his a traditional lib and not a progressive libtard. It might all be a facade as he's a left wing msm host .
