@DavidtheSyriac One thing that gives me pause about this is the Ethiopian Tawehedo Church. I know they incorporate a lot of judaizing practices, and also include the book of Enoch in their canon. I don’t know if that is compatible with Eastern Orthodox, but I’d love to see things worked out
@j_divis Literally no other Christian denomination in the planet believes Jesus reappeared in America to give Joseph Smith the corrective vision of the Gospel. Mormonism is as Christian is Islam is
@Mormonger Mormons need to give up calling themselves Christian. Practically every actual Christian says that you guys are not in the club. No one else excepts the Prophethood of Joseph Smith except yall.
@ByuSome@robinhoodlego Depends what you mean by that. There’s 1 version of the Bible with various translations. Catholic/ Orthodox have 73 books, Protestants 66. The Protestants just subtract the deuterocanon
@Bauer1488@NickHintonn Read about the Einzatgrupen. Mobile death sqauds went into towns for the sole purpose to exterminate undesirables. The Nazis were not liberators, the whole invasion was to create Lebensraum for the Germans.
@EthanWayne2001 You’re still 100% Orthodox. Like you, I draw a hard line against anyone who’s an open racist or Nazi. “Orthobros” get angry at your posts because the way you word things makes it sound like you’re compromising on the Church’s teachings.
@Bauer1488@NickHintonn You’re unfathomably retarded. Hitler’s Table Talks detail his disdain for Christianity, Himmler was on some nutso pagan shit, and the invasion of Russia killed millions of Orthodox Christians. Are the countless holocaust testimonies all fabricated?
@Bauer1488@NickHintonn Absolutely wrong, Hitler was a genocidal maniac who hated Christianity. The Nazis literally rounded up Catholics when they dared to start defying Nazism.
@Nalin_Haley I’m sorry, but they are fundamentally not Christian. They have a dramatically different theology and christology. They have made substantial additions to canon, and revere Joseph Smith as a Prophet.
@LOCONGAMER01 People are going crazy over nothing. I’m willing to bet a huge part of why the face model for Faye looks different is because it’s a better facial scanning technology compared to previous games
@SiegfireDotcom You have to be brain dead to think Rasputin, the guy who was sleeping with half the Russian aristocracy, the guy who thought indulging in sin was the path to salvation, the guy who manipulated the Romanovs, is in any way blessed
@EthanWayne2001 The issue is that Riccardi-Swartz has a very clear leftist progressive bent and that her book “Between Heaven and Russia” represents a caricature of the monastery she studied for a year. The people that were interviewed in her study felt betrayed and misrepresented
@JayDyer@Gsplsimplicity I found this research study Sarah Riccardi-Swartz helmed where she advocates for LGBTs to “queer the Church” https://t.co/78yPnzCwdl
