>Does not notice the subtext that Catholics and Catholicism are extremely gay

What's the problem? Are you a homophobic or something?

Don't. It's a lot like Judaism in that there is a lot of emphasis on tradition. They have the Talmud, we have the Church, and we both prefer legalistic interpretations rather than substance. Not that tradition is bad, it's just inconvenient and irrelevant if you're not a spiritual person.
The schools are good though.

Hey OP, I'm glad you're thinking about becoming Catholic.

Just remember this. The Church of Rome is the only true church established by Jesus Christ Himself.

Every other "church" is heretic to the core and their adherents are not real Christians.

Thank you for your attention.

Na, at least the Orthodox Jews keep all their traditions.

We got rid of so many of ours. We don't even have Latin in mass anymore. Can you imagine a synagogue with no Hebrew?

based and catholicpilled

Not English speaker. Here episode and chapter are synonims..

Yes I'm a spic.

When I meant by tradition was more of an emphasis on ritual worship rather than reflecting on the Word.
I am well aware of what Vatican II changed; they got rid of some of the only things that made Catholicism distinct. Do you remember a few years ago when they changed the Nicene creed?

I'd like you to become a catholic but dont do it *just* because of a TV show please. At least read into the philosophy/theology of the true Church (RCC) good luck if so. I'd recommend starting with GK Chesterton's "Orthodoxy" and then moving on to reading the catechisms . Frankly you go to hell if you arent catholic so if you cba to do that then fine provided you are dedicated and not a lukewarm cultural christian.

as a Roman Catholic I think you shouldn't base your expectations from a tv show.

tradition and getting some spiritual feelings to fill the void is the entire point of religion for me. thats why protestantcucks ultimately ended up as materialistic and miserable as they are

>lies so another follows him like a sheep
yup, thats a catholic alright

catholic was made by kikes for kikes, after jesus was killed so obviously not "established by jesus" and for the soul purpose of controlling the masses, instead of standing up to tyranny they were just being degenerates in the desert so rome promoted it, mixed it with pagan elements and had even more sheep to flock. fuck yourself retard

I fell for the catholic meme after watching vikings and looking at a lot of martyr art and I went through RCIA and about halfway through I realized there's just so many contradictions in the catholic church that I couldn't keep on going. Also the mary worship got me.

We do have mass in latin, tridentine masses are still done and carried out in every parish. I personally refuse to attend novus ordo masses if i can and exclusively attend latin mass as much as possible, but novus ordo is still a valid mass (for now). Have a look at the the latin mass society's page for your nearest one, lots of associations of priests are there for it and if you cant find one from the LMS or FSSP then theres always the SSPX.

Modern orthodox judaism is a post-christian construction, theres also no at least for them, they are heretics and blasphemers and are worse than any other people as the murderers of christ and their continued vilification of God.

imagine being so easily influenced that a tv show makes you want to convert religion

>he watches a show created by a liberal who is most likely not Catholic and designed Lenny as an antihero

episode 8 might be my single favorite episode of television of all time. it's perfect.

watch a serious man, its all about how the religion is used to cull their own by the ones in power and also how even if jews are more "traditionalist" they know nothing of the meaning and see it as noise to sing along to

idk what contraditctions you are talking about but assume its the vague statements from vatican ii (a non binding pastoral council), it is true that we have a problem with modernists thanks to the boomer priests still being alive and the longer period for old ideas to remain in an institution that is for life. But the actual body of the traditions and dogma of the church is not contradictory and is in fact extremely clear and concise in comparison to the fake religions on account of the works of thousands of years of church theologians and scholars and saints.

It happens to me all the time. I'm 24 and everytime I see something on a movie I want to convert it in my life.

Think about all those toilet-brained /pol/shits who became "pagan" after watching a varg video lmao zoomers are truly retarded scum.

>can't defend himself against mary worship accusation
I'm not ignorant of Hyperdulia. It's the definition of worship, given another name to just make it seem like it's not worship.

I don't have to defend myself against stupidity, I only have to chuckle at the uneducated and look for more interesting posts

>Do zoomers really chose their religion based on HBO shows?
HBO, Social Media its all the same. Whatever is a popular that makes it to fad status. The purge cant come soon enough

That's a symbol of classical wealth. It's not soulless consumerist trash, like fills modernity.

Neopagan non-Scandinavians are worse.

Kek, based AND redpilled.

Unless you live in a Catholic country i dont see the point. Church is more of a social thing than spiritual, the service is okay but its literally just a few songs, reading some passages from the bible and do the usual rituals.
The great thing about Catholicism are the festivals because they involve the whole community whether they are religious or not, also they tend to be very paganistic in nature and therefore thousands of years old.
In Portugal for example we worship Mary on a level that makes God and Jesus seem like background characters, she's even the official queen of the country and its always been that way since foundation, and at the end of the day its a motherhood worship, the purety of female energy and motherly love. In Lisbon we celebrate Saint Anthony, people get married on that day and he is seen as love saint, kinda like a pagan would worship some kind of love deity. In Porto theres Saint John which even though has a minimal connection to the country it was used by catholics to replace the pagan festivity that celebrates the summer solstice.

>Unless you live in a Catholic country i dont see the point

I do

you sound ignorant of your own religion

No argument here.

This

im not religious, i have been to church only twice in last couple of years but the pacing is always the same. As for the festivals and rituals i obviously know what im talking about since its my country.
Catholicism is good as a cultural influence, and the reason its superior to other forms of christianity. There is only one bible, to have different intrepertacions is pointless, and thats the only reason Catholicism still has some gas left in the tank are the cultural events. Compare it to Protestantism that is bare bones and boring, and therefore pratically dead.

naturally you know what your country is like, but you've just revealed you are ignorant of Catholicism

do become a catholic but try to find a TLM (traditional latin mass) near you. SSPX is cool FSSP is also good. Good luck

based

based. in a better time protestantcucks would be forcefully converted

Yes, the problem with all Reformation faiths is that they were founded as Schismatics who never centralized an authority, and so, were destined for infinite sectarianism. Many churches in America are completely alone. Many others are in a loose coalition with each other for monetary and political purposes, but share nothing in common in doctrine, or in the culture. It's all weak, and built upon nothing.

The Catholics, even with their problems, at least all stand united monetarily, politically, doctrinally, and hierarchically.

What do you mean?

You know the Young Pope is a work of fiction right? If you want real modern Catholicism go look at Francis.

SSPX is based. I don't think they have any churches near me, though.

your attitude and vocabulary, no Catholic would say they worship Mary, that's simply ridiculous, and would not associate of their religion as pagan. You are severely detached from the church and don't really understand it.

You're retarded, and there are almost as many Protestants as Catholics worldwide. In my country there are almost zero Catholics, everyone is Protestant. Your country isn't the world.

If you want to read an unintentionally hilarious review of "A Serious Man" by the exact kind of Jew the Coens were making fun of:

Kek. If you want a conservative Catholicism like Pius XIII, you have to go after the FSSPX

protestants are the most likely to switch religions of any christian body, be it from one christian sect to the other, or even to go full mysticism or Islamic.
not to mention that in countries like the netherlands or Germany protestant churches are regularly transformed into stores, bars, roller rinks, or even mosques

Well Protestantism is dead in Europe. England, Scandinavia are great example of how Christianity completely died there.
And in the Americas it seems like Evangelism is the one keeping it alive, probably because it makes church fun and a social event.

Maybe i worded it wrong, but over here Christmas is for Jesus and the other 364 days are for the Virgin Mary.
Also the pagan element to Catholicism is well known, many pagan elements were converted into Catholic festivities to better integrate the pagan people of the Roman Empire, just like i said we dont have summer solstice, we have a festivity for a Catholic Saint.

The whole point of Catholicism is to replace faith with membership. When your members are always clarifying "oh, I'm Catholic actually" just so people don't think they're actually serious about their religion, you know you have a problem.
Some protestant denominations are dying, but they're dying for the same reason as Catholicism. At least in protestantism there's always going to be an oppositional movement to each corrupting trend.

mine is 1 hour, i would suggest making the attempt to go as much as you can.

Catholic here. The Mary devotionals bother me too.
But it *is* possible to avoid the full Mary silliness at least in the Mass. Whatever they spout off in the homilies, what matters is the Body and Blood of our Lord. THAT is still central.

What are the points? The biggest thing about being a devout Catholic is that you adhere to the teachings and let it influence how you live your life. You don't have to be perfect, you'll never be. You just have to use it to point you in the right direction, there's no catholic on earth that would claim to be the embodied Christ.

Pope Francis is a doofus and a liar, Can't stand that cunt. He's a political troglodyte and not a spiritial leader. He's made me sympathize with Protestants, he's THAT bad.

one thing protestants don't believe in is the sacraments, like absolution.

Lenny actually tries to attack the root of the problem (homosexuals in the priesthood).

If you reject Francis as head of your church, you ARE a protestant, user.

I love how buttmad pol gets over him. Despite him doing literal Christ like actions. Compared to the warmonging and excision type of actions the old church was in the past. It's purely Christ like to offer good will to all except pharasees who sell shit in churches.

Just appreciate the aesthetics of the Church and throw all religious nonsense into the dustbin of history.

And don't even think about LARPing as a pagan, that's even worse.

>rabbi yeshua
utter brainlet. Rabbis werent even a thing until well after the destruction of the temple in Jerusalem

>not comprehending an allegory linking Yeshua to his judaic origins
Theists, not even once.

whats wrong with this judaic origin? it doesnt disprove or de-legitimize yeshua. Rabbinic judaism is not the judaism that was practiced by the jews of the old testament just like christianity is not the judaism that was practiced by the jews of the old testament.

your ilk has been tossed into the bin many times already

Yet is it still a form of Judaism (its direct continuation from a traditional Christian perspective) ergo of no intrinsic value to Europeans.

All that is noble in Christianity is not inherently religious, but either a matter of aesthetics or philosophy. Thus you don't have to throw out the European baby with the Judaic bathwater, so there's nothing to be lost by discarding Christianity (or whatever remains of it nowadays anyhow).

>48 year old actor
>YOUNG Pope
Lmao

...

I was responding to OP's temptation to LARP as a Catholic, user. I've seen the series and have appreciated it for its aesthetics.

>ergo of no intrinsic value to Europeans.
Much of Europe was pagan backwaters until Christianity turned it into what it was throughout the last 2000 years. idk if you consider meds (greeks and romans) white but their culture had just as much if not more influence on shaping Christianity than Judaism

>their culture had just as much if not more influence on shaping Christianity
Ergo my point about philosophy. All that is worthwhile in Christian thought is either foreign to its origins (thus 'clean') or can be taken for its practical worth in spite of its Christian context (parts of the writings of the Desert Fathers and what not).
