Wrong again...

Also, the "Op's" original Thread's question, was simply asking how to become a Catholic.
So, your point of view, is something you completely made up that is not related to the "Op's" question...., and im not certain why you would do that, other then the fact that you're just a dishonest person . ??

Also, I never "savage a christian"... little one.
What i do is confirm cults and their theology that is taught by a forum member, or a commentary or a Youtube video, ect, ect..., using Paul's Theology.
Its really that simple. @Matthias

Now when you are able, answer my question..
Why would anyone want to become a denomination...(see my list),

Baptist
Methodist
Assembly of God
Church of Christ
Berean
Methodist
Lutheran
Orthodox
Calvinist
Catholic....

when they can simply become a Christian..????????????? @Matthias

To become a Catholic* (or a ____ ) is to become a Christian.

The atheist didn’t want to become a Catholic / Christian (and hadn’t at the time of his last message posted here.)

Rather than confine themselves to the question that was asked, “Christian members” turned on “Christian members” - giving the atheist exactly what he was looking for.

* Note also the lower case in the thread title.

I responded to the Thread's simple question.

See, im pointing out that if you want to become a Catholic.....then you are wanting to become a part of the Catholic denonination.
Why do that, when you can just simply become a Christian.

Do you have an answer ?

You’ve already conceded that Catholic is Christian.

That is the Catholic Propaganda you are pumping out....along with "perpetual virgin" and "ascension of Mary" and "Peter the 1st Pope", and "baptismal regeneration" and "the Euchariast is literally Jesus".......and on and on with the Catholic man-made DOGMA.

So, why join a man made denomination, that created the Dark ages, and killed more people they defined as Heretics then Islam has ever killed..........and that teaches the endless "Marian" propaganda, when you can just simply become a Christian, instead..

I concede that there are many Christians who are Catholic......absolutely.
But the MaryCult theology, the Marian Obsession, and the other "church fathers".. theological nonsense that is not found in any Bible.....is literall a "doctrine of Devils".

Hebrews 13:9 (KJV)

The CB "statement of faith". is your discussion......your obsession.
Why dont you post a Thread, since its so important to you, @Matthias ??

Whereas....My Post asked.....""""why would anyone want to become any Denomination.......including the Catholic Denomination, when they can simply become a Christian.""""""

See, ..........Denominations are defined by their Theology., their core belief system.. @Matthias .
So, with the MaryCult.......you find an obsession with Mary and Peter and Water Baptism (including Infant).... and Taking Communion , that is not found in any Bible.
So, that is how you know, most of all, that you are dealing with a specific denomination.
You wont find Baptists, or Methodists, or any "mainline denomination".. on their knees, bowing before a Plastic or ceremic or marble statue of MARY.. But you will find the Catholic Denomination members on their knees, bowing before Mary and that is how you know that you are dealing with the Catholic Denomination., which is the "Mary Cult".

Understand yet @Matthias ?

I understand far more than you think.

My obsession isn’t the Christianity Board Statement of Faith. You know that.

Have him explain to you sometime how the members affirming orthodoxy got it wrong.
Not interested.
The Catholics are the authors of the creeds this site officially endorses.
Of course it's all about the trinity for you.. which is aside from the point that Catholics absolutely do not agree with the SOF. Period.

Then you’ll remain ignorant about what he believes and teaches.

It’s not. I’m a Jewish monotheist. I have little interest in discussing the Trinity. I’ve expressed my opinion that all discussions about the Trinity should be confined to the “Christians Only” forums.*

which is aside from the point that Catholics absolutely do not agree with the SOF. Period.

They’re as bad in their own way as @Behold is in his.

* I brought that thread to your attention a few minutes ago.

how would you suggest i do that

You’ll need to become acquainted and comfortable with stories like this one.

From my X / Twitter “For you” feed this afternoon -

“The birth of the Blessed Virgin Mary was no ordinary event. It was the dawn of salvation and the beginning of the New Testament.

Drawing from Mystical City of God, here is the dramatic story of her birth with heaven, earth, and even hell caught up in the glorious mystery ... “


You won’t need the Bible for this yarn.

From my X / Twitter “For you” feed this afternoon -

“It’s amazing that we celebrate birthdays of great men like George Washington with holidays, but 90% of the world is oblivious to the fact that TODAY is the birthday of the MOST PERFECT human person to EVER exist.

This should be a global holiday!”


(Same source as post #399. Show the slightest interest and X / Twitter will sock it to you.)

Before the boo birds call, remember that Jesus isn’t a human person in Nicene theology.
