I live my life trying to never do anything I'd be embarrassed to get caught doing.

Progressives want to throw out the baby with the bathwater, but conservatives don't want to throw out the baby or the bathwater.

But the thing is neither of these is true.

@FreeIrishman7 Anybody could say the same anytime from the Apostolic era to now, how can you be so 100% certain you're right and thousands of bishops plus the pope are wrong. Isn't it possible you're mistaken?

@metathomist When will you people learn that humility is good and is supposed to hurt?

["Eacho" (EACCO) ✝️🌐🆗🆓🇺🇸 (nee realBarneyFife) @Nee_Nihilo]

@FreeIrishman7 I understand. But this means that not only is the pope not pope, but thousands and thousands of bishops aren't bishops either. According to you. Maybe instead of all those thousands of bishops, maybe instead, you are misunderstanding something. It's at least plausible, no?

["Eacho" (EACCO) ✝️🌐🆗🆓🇺🇸 (nee realBarneyFife) @Nee_Nihilo]

@FreeIrishman7 You're saying basically every bishop is not a real bishop. Like the whole Church hierarchy is not real.

@BackwardsFeet @thenomadrhodes @Mr_Husky1 And would that be all he would have needed to do to help her? and to still obey Canon Law?

@BackwardsFeet @thenomadrhodes @Mr_Husky1 The OP is evidently apocryphal but hypothetically mightn't we expect the 14 yo would presume first (not chronologically but in order of priority) that the confessor was an ally and would help her out, before she presumed confidentiality? Seems like an interesting hypothetical.

@kingofthehood89 Sunday's Gospel was the parable of the sower. Catholicism knows there are four kinds of soil. The good soil will be around many years from now: there's no rush, be patient.

@JNo8675309 @realMaalouf Everybody can be here they just have to share our values, otherwise, this isn't the country for them. Islamism is incompatible with Christian, Western values, but there are many Western Muslims, so it's political ideology that's the problem, not the religion.

@JNo8675309 @realMaalouf Some (not all) Christian (not Islamist) values:

equality
universal human rights
freedom of religion
freedom of conscience
rape is wrong

@BackwardsFeet @thenomadrhodes @Mr_Husky1 At what point does the seal begin? There must be a precise beginning. Sometimes confessions are heard outside a confessional for example, when does the seal start?

@JNo8675309 @realMaalouf “ Racist fucktard asks another human being why they want to live in a country that is supposed to be free, welcoming to immigrants and allows for freedom of religion. Fixed it. ”-You

That country is a CHRISTIAN country, not an Islamist country. Sorry for your confusion.

@analyticatheism Transcendental arguments are the strongest arguments.

["Eacho" (EACCO) ✝️🌐🆗🆓🇺🇸 (nee realBarneyFife) @Nee_Nihilo]

@BackwardsFeet @thenomadrhodes @Mr_Husky1 Does Canon Law distinguish the seal of confession (protecting past sins) from reportable future crimes or dangers to others, allowing priests to act in such cases?

["Eacho" (EACCO) ✝️🌐🆗🆓🇺🇸 (nee realBarneyFife) @Nee_Nihilo]

@JNo8675309 @realMaalouf And that country is saturated with Christian values like freedom, welcoming immigrants and allowing freedom of religion, exactly like the Islamist countries don't have.

@thenomadrhodes @Mr_Husky1 The hero of the story is the Catholic Church's Canon Law

@SimoneHCollins Not the average Catholic bishop, no. Some Catholic bishops, not the average Catholic bishop.

@SteveSkojec That is quite fast. Wow. Sad. 'Sorry.

@alc_anthro @BasilFlush @eddyportnoy “ ... Christianity was adopted by [Rome] ... [as] a weapon ... against the Jewish people ”

Again, wut? Rome did not need any novel weapon against the constantly revolting Jews of the 1st and 2nd century, nor did they need any other motive against your ancestors.

@alc_anthro @BasilFlush @eddyportnoy Our holy land, speaking as a Catholic, is in the Levant only as much as the Church of the Holy Sepulcher is there, but really we're more Vatican oriented than Levant oriented. At least for now, until the eschaton. ofc.
