@gonefishin1948 The point of the Gospel is that all fall short of the glory of God. Being a good person doesn’t get you to heaven, following Christ and accepting his forgiveness when we fall short is what gets you to heaven. Not to say that everyone who doesn’t follow Christ is a bad person.
I think my biggest issue, besides the hypocrisy, is this an objective male POV. ‘I did all of these things that I think matter to women and they still wouldn’t sleep with me’. Sounds like an incel in a dress to me.
@JakeTbird On top of forcing the ideology onto children, forcing the children who haven’t fallen for it yet, to sit on the other side of the classroom in the corner. Punishment for not being indoctrinated yet. That’s disgusting.
@JamieBonkiewicz As someone who was convinced by public school in the seventh grade, that I was a boy, and luckily woke up before i mutilated myself. You’re lying through your teeth. I told 7 different teachers, not one told my parents. I believe it because I lived it.
@BIG_SGT_D If all religious art counted as idols then the tabernacle is idolatrous and so is the original ark of the covenant. Sounds ridiculous right? Because God doesn’t counterdict himself. So it can’t be refering to all religious images.
@teakaycee@sola_chad Catholics don’t believe the faithful are dead. Jesus promises very specifically, several times, that you won’t die, Matthew 22:32 for example. Catholics believe that they are alive in heaven, instead of here on earth like you and me. Closer to God and more easily heard.
@Jackironsjr@dmsevoac@Xtopher_Uzo It’s exactly the same. Man is sinful and in need of a Savior. God sent his only son to die on the cross for the sins of the world. Jesus was resurrected 3 days later. Those who accept him as your Lord and Savior, are born again and given eternal life. That’s the Gospel.
@teakaycee@sola_chad Secondly, if asking someone on earth to pray for you isn’t wrong, why is asking someone who we believe is alive and well in heaven?
@teakaycee@sola_chad You have a fundamental misunderstanding of what Catholics believe about saints. Starting with, no one said they were perfect or ‘the standard’. Saints are recognized for admirable faith or abundance in fruit of the spirit. They’re honored for that…
@R_DiAngelosBull “Stop adopting children because you believe in Jesus.” You sound ridiculous and if this were directed at any other group more people would tell you so.
