Love it when a tradcath cryptofascist gets to dialogue with a tradcath fascist about Wookiepedia-level religious trivia
I’d link but I think it’s deleted
I was raised catholic and I can’t parse this.
Wrote a dissertation on Augustine, the Pelagian heresy sort of makes sense since that whole thing is basically about being able to save yourself without help from Christ, etc.
The rest is very dumb tho. Also, their
is pathetic compared to the GOAT.
tfw you realize religious trivia is all neurodivergent folks could obsess and argue over until very very recently and that the council of Nicaea was essentially a posting war
This is peak theory tbh, just imagining Nicea as being the first tradcath struggle session
In 10 years time: Dasha has renounced Christianity as a whole, is post-ironically worshipping Zeus, having Twitter discourse around Prometheus, visiting Olympus and having a religious experience, building shrines to Ares and Apollo
They should get into cool special interests like X-Men, Final Fantasy, Survivor, Digimon, Pro Wrestling
It’s like those middle schoolers who roleplay as vampires in the middle of class
Isn’t the whole point of being Catholic that it’s not your job or right to debate this stuff? Stop being Protestant! Go to mass! Listen to what you’re told!
Pictured: tradcath stumbling into heresy
That’s the whole point of christianity in general. Essentially, the bible is the done deal. Priests exist to guide people towards the book. But you’re supposed to have faith that it’s all real and makes sense even if you don’t understand it. Questioning the validity of x miracle or y sacrament is essentially the equivalent of lucifer demanding equality with God or Eve wanting all knowledge
lucifer demanding equality with God
That is itself a medieval heresy. The biblical satan is a fucking angel cop trying to put humanity on trial for suspected disloyalty.
The tradcaths keep accidentally inventing Protestantism because they think the papacy is too woke and soy
It’s never not gonna be funny to me. I wish them a very happy Another 30 Years War on each other. Start by throwing themselves out a window.
The worst thing is that they are talking a lot of heretical ultraconservative nonsense. Lay people have no say in what is or is not an effective sacrament. I hope all these “trads” admit once and for all that they are actually Protestants. Besides, if they are such traditionalists, the Apostle Paul writes that women have no voice in these matters: they can’t even be conservative right.
If they’re OG traditionalists Jesus isn’t god and also he turned out to be a liar when the world didn’t end.
somehow less interesting and less spiritually relevant to life than a debate between two dorks about Warhammer 40k deep lore.
The riverbeds will run red with the blood of the saints and the holy.
I honestly have more respect for people who get deep into warhammer lore than this weird catholic nerd shit
I had family that prayed the rosary and all that stuff and still weren’t weird like this.
Yeah no shade on actually religious people, good vibes and faith are cool. This weird almost areligious lore nerd shit is just deeply weird and sad. Jesus is not gonna fuck you, dudes. You’re not gonna impress him by reciting the minutes of the diet of worms or whatever
These people should eat a diet of worms
Isnt praying the rosary standard practice though? If you had a conversation like this with a real, normal human who is also catholic, they’ll tell you to fuck off
Oh, for sure. I just grew up with family that did all the trappings, rosary, chants, vespers, day drinking. Normal Catholics are pretty chill. Converts, though…
Most of the converts at my church just happen to find Jesus after deciding that they want to marry their catholic spouse lol
What I see when Marxists talk about Hegel
Adam Friedland really dodged a bullet huh

dodged a bullet like the diarrhea dodged being trapped in his white linen pants
it’s amazing that people have made up such convoluted complexity applied to nothing. Like, it’s all entirely made up. It’s nonsense built atop a foundation of nonsense.
Papists and incoherent popery, name a better duo
“So anyway, it’s best to pick Charmander as your starter because…”
“…and that’s how Ash picking Pikachu started the second Pokecclesiastes Schism.”
You’re just listing off all the fire Pokemon. And it’s the same scenario every time. I’m done.
“How many angels can dance on the head of a pin?” (alternatively “How many angels can stand on the point of a pin?”) is a phrase that, when used in modern contexts, can be used as a metaphor for wasting time debating topics of no practical value, or on questions whose answers hold no intellectual consequence, while more urgent concerns accumulate.[1]
The phrase was originally used in a theological context by 17th century Protestants to mock medieval scholastics such as Duns Scotus[2] and Thomas Aquinas.
Aren’t angels a bunch of wheels with eyes? How would they dance? Spin like a gyroscope?
Breakdance.
Where are their husbands and why are they allowed to toy with such heresies?
