Jesus fulfilled the Law. The Old Testament is supposed to give us background information, for interpreting the New Testament. It isn't our model for life. Thankfully.

I reject the idea that Christianity is "just like Islam or Judaism". It is fundamentally different, not least in that the only violence it condones is self-defense, which is a Natural Right.

i 100% agree with you on this... islam was just some random fork off judaism that arose during a time in which - and it wasn't just islam, christianity too, a lot of what Mohammed described as "polytheist" sects, and even, it's my opinion that actually some part of catholicism venerates Mary like she is some kind of Goddess

from its inception, Islam was always a fairly radical monotheist system, and is very much in contrast to the Christian canon as from the New Testament... it is more of a continuation of some of the strands of Judaism, even though it gives lip service repeatedly in the Quran to the importance of Jesus (the angel who visited Mary is claimed to be the same as who spoke to Mohammed, Gabriel)

Christianity is definitely the odd one out compared to most of judaism and islam, and when you look at the cultural, artistic, economic, and technological outcomes of the Way of Christ it should be obvious that it is the straight path. The only other major religion that is close to Christianity is Taoism, and both have a similar notion about humility and meekness and non-confrontation

it's not to say there hasn't been good parts to all of these systems, because there definitely is, but on the whole, Christianity has functioned as a brake on imperial power for the last 2000 years and that alone is significant. and i will just point out that Taoism (and to a lesser extent, buddhism) did a similar thing for asia.

anyhow

plutocrats, megalomaniacs, and power hungry, violent perpetrators of massive violence known as war, are at the centre of the problem, they send all the money and the weapons to the most rabid psychotic cult leader religious folks and that mainly means wahabi and zionists, and from that constant rolling boil they are trying to destroy euorpe, and the real purpose is destroying europe's legacy of Christianity

and it's very notable on that list of white areas you showed... that portugal is one of them - and for which reason i'm relatively cool with being here, the orthodox in the east are corrupt and the calvinist strands from the north of europe are also wishy washy and have been easily corrupted

i pray for an end to all this evil, sooner, the better

i believe all the signs are here to be seen, the state of the society, even the mark of the beast is looming real close "fuer ihre sicherheit" we must KYC you so that hackers can steal your identity

it sorta looks like things might go back to a bit more sane for a while but i'm pretty sure what the left hand is giving the right hand is reaching around

ᴛʜᴇ ᴅᴇᴀᴛʜ ᴏꜰ ᴍʟᴇᴋᴜ 10mo ago

oh yes, and, just to be clear, the veneration that catholics give to Mary is not so unlike that of muslims to Mohammed, they even have to put some stupid disclaimer every time they mention him "praise be unto him" PBUH

Christ is King. the end.

also i'm not gonna let this dissuade me from attending mass... i'm just gonna hear "la la la mae de deus la la la" nad then go back to normal mode when that nonsense stops

if the congregation is worth spending time with anyway

i hope they are, i already don't mind most of the people i encounter on a regular basis around here and i know at least some of them also attend mass

The Mary thing isn't as big, as it once was, as we've been corrupted by hanging out too much with Protestant heathens. 😅

good

i've read a lot of stuff, especially about the introduction of catholic christianity to the british isles and this thing of "integrating local religion" into the Church is just dishonest and wrong

"mother of God" is the worst of it. and how many cultures have this as a swear... it's blasphemy, obviously

but i'm gonna let it slide because the general adherence to the main principles, ie, the Decalogue and the words of Jesus Christ have kept a lot of parts of europe in a better state, and that's good, and those protestants, how's that going over there in germany and netherlands and sweden and denmark? lol

i wil say though, that in some sense, "God the Creator" is the Mother of all, but i don't think there is a gender
