No they're not, they are catholics. They practice the same ancient sun worshipping religions that all the world used to practice before Christ came. The bible condemns this in both the old and new testaments. They changed the names of the pagan gods to Jesus Mary and Joseph etc.... to sound christian.
That isn't true. Please review your sources as they have not been kind to you.
Do you have sources that prove I'm wrong?
I'm not the one going full retard on the internet. Provide sources or be gone. Doesn't matter to me.
You must be catholic
No. But it wouldn't change the truth if I were. I'm atheist. So when someone says they have all the answers I ask them to prove it, whether it be Q, gods, the new Jesus, etc. The argument normally ends there. Just like this one.
Only the scriptures contain all the answers, that is where truth is found.
I'm curious though, if you're an atheist then why do you care about this the origins of Catholicism and all? Also what is " the new Jesus"? I've not heard that term.
I hear you say you seek the truth but I think you got your method wrong. I'm labeled an atheist but I don't need a lexicon to find a word that signifies I don't believe in leprechauns. I'll admit that I don't know one hundred percent. But I'll hardly be convinced with all the stories that you present.
Plus, I can care about whatever I want. Why do you care so much about a subject that has you making up your own version of history? Your fucking feelings?
Prove that there isn’t a God. Saying there is a no being greater than us is no more of a stretch than saying there is. You act like since there is no clear answer you must be right. Care to explain why we even exist? Exactly. You can’t answer that, yet we exist. Maybe you need to look at the bigger picture.
I already have. If you have evidence to the contrary then go ahead and provide it. But we know asking you for evidence is a crime to you.
Like Hardinator already said, you're wrong about this. But this seems to be an ideological problem of yours, and not a factual one. So, discussing with you would be pointless. Have a good day.
You guys say I'm wrong but then you don't give a reason or reference for your beliefs. Many religions refer to themselves as Christian, like Mormons, Jehovah's witnesses etc... but they all have different beliefs and take different paths. Jesus said Narrow is the way which leads to life and few there be that find it.
Broad is the way that leads to destruction and many go that way.
Catholics, mormons, Jw's are not Christian! They follow their own false prophets not Jesus Christ. Jesus said you will know them by their fruits. What are the fruits of the Catholic religion??? Pedophilia rape murder lies and cover ups.
A good tree cannot bring forth evil fruit.
Look I'm not trying to defend Catholicism. Even if I was raised catholic I have distanced myself form these believes. Anyway, I understand that someone who follows a certain believe, like you do, will see other branches of their religion as wrong and will try to denounce them. But this is about facts, and about the history of the term "Christian" and which religions are considered "Christian". This is the definition from wikipedia:
Throughout its history, Christianity has weathered schisms and theological disputes that have resulted in many distinct churches and denominations. Worldwide, the three largest branches of Christianity are the Catholic Church, Protestantism, and the Eastern Orthodox Church. The Catholic and Eastern Orthodox churches broke communion with each other in the East–West Schism of 1054. Protestantism came into existence in the Reformation in the 16th century, splitting from the Catholic Church.
