@2xVax3xBoosted @valorthodoxia Why do you need your priest’s blessing to attend a wedding?

[Star Spangled Red @StarSpangledRed]

@Brosephos Well said.

[Star Spangled Red @StarSpangledRed]

@Brosephos @jp_life_legacy The same verse was quoted. Two different interpretations. One side of the debate says “we are right because we say so and we said it first.” The other side says “I’m not sure who is right. The only thing I know for certain is that one, or both of us, is wrong.”

[Star Spangled Red @StarSpangledRed]

@Brosephos That’s why I referred to him as “pope evidence.”

[Star Spangled Red @StarSpangledRed]

@jp_life_legacy @Brosephos No kidding.

“You heard me say, 'I am going away and I am coming back to you.' If you loved me, you would be glad that I am going to the Father, for the Father is greater than I.” John 14:28

[Star Spangled Red @StarSpangledRed]

@Brosephos “What can be claimed without evidence can also be dismissed without evidence.”

This should be the mantra of the RCC.

[Star Spangled Red @StarSpangledRed]

@Brosephos @jp_life_legacy Imagine what the Roman Catholic Church could be if it wasn’t entirely focused on its past.

[Star Spangled Red @StarSpangledRed]

@Brosephos @jp_life_legacy How many people attended the First Council of Nicaea? How long did it last?

Let’s start there.

[Star Spangled Red @StarSpangledRed]

@Brosephos Pope Hitchens. The evidence pope.

[Star Spangled Red @StarSpangledRed]

@Brosephos @jp_life_legacy It took 550 regular men, two months to decide what a church believes, and the decision was based on which idea received the most votes.

[Star Spangled Red @StarSpangledRed]

@Brosephos Hard to argue with that logic.

[Star Spangled Red @StarSpangledRed]

@jp_life_legacy @Brosephos We were discussing the reason behind ecumenical councils.

To your question, who gets to decide?

John 14:28

[Star Spangled Red @StarSpangledRed]

@Brosephos Heresy is an argument, not over truth, but of authority.

[Star Spangled Red @StarSpangledRed]

@Brosephos The Nicene Creed wasn't a statement of faith as some would like to believe. It was an anti-Arian document, plain and simple.

The Council of Nicaea was political, not religious. Constantine wasn’t even Catholic. Baptized on his deathbed by Eusebius of Nicomedia, an Arian bishop.

[Star Spangled Red @StarSpangledRed]

@Brosephos Tell that to the thousands of people who were excommunicated because they disagreed with the RCC.

Emperor Constantine and The First Council of Nicaea is a perfect example of the silencing of those with opposing views.

[Star Spangled Red @StarSpangledRed]

@theblessedsalt @TMK19882 Imagine having to follow a man made rule to take part in communion. Now imagine having to ask a “rules lawyer” for clarification.

When you sit down with the lawyer, ask them why the rule was edited so many times.

[Star Spangled Red @StarSpangledRed]

@UcheMaryOkoli Close… Christotokos

Had other children with Joseph, so, this is false

See above about other children

If this were true, it would make Mary a deity

She’s not a deity, which why she isn’t worshipped

Common sense indeed.

[Star Spangled Red @StarSpangledRed]

@lordpandaxx @Xtopher_Uzo Finally. We’re making some progress.

[Star Spangled Red @StarSpangledRed]

@lordpandaxx @Xtopher_Uzo I pointed out the flaw in the Catholic church’s thinking. I added why that claim rendered everything from the church after that, worthless.

No scripture interpretation needed.
