Silence is pretty underrated. One of the best movies I've ever seen.

The case for Christ is a kino Protestant movie

Why aren't Muslims even trying?
Why does this board not include Jewish Kino?

Wallowing in self pity is the reason why catholic countries are dysfunctional and corrupt.

If they were as bold, confident, and self-assured in their place in the world as protestants then maybe Mexico and Brazil wouldn't be such awful places to live in.

Protestants aren't a united front. Catholics all answer to their emperor in the Vatican.

The question is, why don't Protestants make good directors? They are the majority of the American population

Indulgences haven't been a thing for like 600 years

Protestants are too high on opiates while sucking the dick of Netanyahu to do anything worthwhile.

Because the majority of the population are loud unsubtle hicks who would rather propogandize than glorify God throughart

Memes aside, could it be because they are the most privileged group in the USA (talking about WASP, black protestants is a whole different deal)? Jews in the new world went there escaping from some war and knew suffering, then Catholics are mostly Italians and Irishmen, they suffered wars and famine back in the old country and in the USA they were treated like second class citizens

Maybe art comes from suffering

You’re talking to a kike, they live in the last and have a hard time distinguishing past from present.

Indulgences aren't technically wrong either. They were dropped because men couldn't handle charity and abused them too much.

When people say “white people have no culture,” I have to assume they’re talking about the evangelical country American that hasn’t the slightest knowledge even of actual American culture(Faulkner, Harlem). Italian, Irish, German Americans all have rich distinct societies, but you have to wonder if the Muricans really care about culture or just wanna suck off a flagpole cuz “we da best”

*tips Fedora*

Protestant Americans don't even worship God or Jesus, they use the names but it's really just a stand in for whoever the latest Republican president is and America the nation. It's basically a glorified fascistic state religion.

Italians, Jews and Irishmen were forced to live in ghettos as pariah without even healthcare access when they arrived to the USA

They were literally the majority of America since the Revolution, there’s no oppression to speak of.

>They just don't whine about it and make a pity industry around it unlike jews and catholicucks
The entire God's Not Dead franchise is based around how hard done by Protestants are because they can't praise God in school (not true) and Hercules bullied them in Philosophy class

You think that wasps segregated jews, micks,a and wops for absolutely no reason?
They recognized them as hostile elements to the american way of life and they were proven right.

Jews and irish catholics are the biggest left-wing democrats and since they tend to congregate in cities, they're utterly disconnected from the natural world and tradition. It's rural protestants who are the very heart of american and still hold onto traditional 'blood and soil' values.

I like the image just lumps Tarkovsky, Dreyer and Bergman in with Catholics as European and you just talk about Catholicism anyway.

Ignoring Bergman (Nice exclusion of Europeans), son of a Lutheran priest, is embarrassing. His lifelong questions and struggles with faith are explored often in his films, and yet he died a believer. Winter Light says more about faith than all your American Catholic movie directors say combined.

That's not a relevant example. Kirk Cameron doesn't represent the wider protestant cause or monolithic protestant movement.
When Scorsese makes a movie, he's clearly making it with the consent and backing of his emperor in the Vatican.

>They recognized them as hostile elements to the american way of life and they were proven right.

No it's not you mongaloid. To be catholic, by definition, means to be a believer of the Roman Catholic Faith. Part of that faith is very clearly stated opposition to same-sex relations and abortion.
If one does not hold with those beliefs, they are not Catholic, no matter what they call themselves. This is unironically something that's addressed by Jesus himself both when he says "Not everyone who says to Me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter the kingdom of heaven, but only he who does the will of My Father in heaven". A circle may call itself a square, but that does not make it so

That's my point (I started this whole argument)

WASP, Catholics and black Americans are all "natives" to the USA, they all belong there and Protestants shouldn't opress the rest

>If one does not hold with those beliefs, they are not Catholic, no matter what they call themselves

Again, they can call themselves catholics, but that means fuck all. If they don't follow the teachings of the church, they aren't catholic, plain and simple.
Also, the actual data on voting patterns of catholics outright contradicts your notion. Catholics as a whole tend to be roughly in line with the population as a whole on social issues, and church-going catholics tend to be more conservative than average americans.

>Above three films are actual films made to tell a story, belief and faith are secondary, and basically irrelevant.
You clearly haven't watched those movies.

>Again, they can call themselves catholics, but that means fuck all.
It means everything, you stupid mutt..
Literally the 'not real communism' argument with you stupid fucks.

user, you're wrong. People are a part of the Catholic church as long as they identify as such, even if their thoughts are heretical and their life choices sinful. For some reason you're acting like a puritan, unable to differentiate between being a part of the church and being saved. The two are not synonymous. In fact, what you're saying in this thread is heresy.

Brits are worse (saved Kebab ass in 1798 and 1854).

>People are a part of the Catholic church as long as they identify as such
The teachings of the church go even further. People are a part of the church even if only baptized and reject it their whole life afterwards. A gift of baptism can't be taken back after given.

>Hey dudes I'm Catholic
>I just don't abide by anything the church believes in, but because I got Baptized as an infant, haven't been to church since I was 8, and fedora my entire life since 13 it means I represent the church and all its opinions
Kill yourself

Not even a Papist, but auto-excommunication means that one is no longer considered to be a member of the Roman Catholic Church.

dont forget about the burning of the library of Alexandria
thanks Islam

Brits at least had geopolitical reasons for doing so, what the fuck was Luther's excuse?

>It means everything, you stupid mutt..
No it doesn't. If something does not fit the definition of a thing, then it is not that thing, no matter what it or others may claim. Especially in the case of a group based around ideology. Taking the "not real communism" example, if someone claimed to be communist but advocated for free markets and private property rights, then they clearly are not communist, even though they claim to be.

And it doesn't even matter, because your entire thesis of "Catholics overwhelmingly vote for left wing progressive politicians in every generation." is objectively wrong

I have watched those movies. They didn't try to encourage the viewer to believe in god, or convert, or condemn athiests or non-christians.

Above three films contain sex and violence and adult themes, were they allowed to show those movies in your group home? Or did you have to sneak out?

>I just don't abide by anything the church believes in

Spotted the fallacies.

Being in sin is not an excommunication.

That's exactly what "reform Catholics" do though, they shouldn't be listened to by anyone

The problem is the religion has a tendency of inviting the worst type of people. The problem is that its their own church that tells them to have more kids when they are unable to afford one. Its an enticing religion, be absolved of your sins as easy as taking a brief shower. Catholic religion is all about its members and nothing stands in the way of having more worshipers fill their seats. I get all churches do this but not to where it becomes a burden. I don't like saying this I really don't but the Catholic religion for the most part has been destroyed and its really not even the worshipers fault.

Going against teachings of Rome grants you automatic excommunication.

>People are a part of the Catholic church as long as they identify as such, even if their thoughts are heretical and their life choices sinful
Incorrect, because Latae sententiae Excommunication exists in cannon law. Anyone who advocates for abortion or same-sex relations would violate canon law 1364, and inccur such penalty. Now granted, it is without prejudice and thus if they recant they are able to return into communion with the church, but until then they are, by definition, not Catholic

>he thinks anyone in the fucking world cares about new age US Catholics
Sorry but just because your shitty country is at the center of the world (as police, arbiter and executioner) it doesn't mean it's relevant in every single aspect of global culture (e.g., philosophy, literature, religion).

>reform catholics only exist in America
Keep telling yourself that

>No it doesn't. If something does not fit the definition of a thing, then it is not that thing,
Sorry, fag.
I don't live in a world where things are defined by words written in books. I like to base my worldview on empirical observations and objective truths.
You're arguing in bad faith against me because I'm directly challenging the notion that catholics are squeaky clean and untainted by critical theory and that is an attack on your identity.
The world doesn't operate on your anal, contrived definitions. Someone doesn't have to be a completely puritanical, orthodox, by the book catholic in order to be a catholic.
Isn't one of the pillars of christianity that christians can be flawed and may deviate from the bible's teachings every now and then, whether consciously or not?

Eat a dick for your popery.

>Isn't one of the pillars of christianity that christians can be flawed and may deviate from the bible's teachings every now and then, whether consciously or not?
Sounds like heretical shit to me, in any religion

Why would you say belief and faith are secondary to 'telling a story' when a main theme of 'story' is faith? What makes you think not encouraging the viewer to believe in god makes faith and belief 'basically irrelevant'?

>I like to base my worldview on empirical observations and objective truths.
Strong words from someone who is stating shit that is objectively false, and has offered no empirical or objective evidence to prove their claim.
Unless you have some studies proving your claim that "Catholics overwhelmingly vote for left wing progressive politicians in every generation.", then everything you've said is pure rhetoric, and you can fuck off with that

The OP image is so disingenuous it gives Catholics a bad name

Problem? It's the function. Counteracting the basest impulses of those who only behave themselves out of fear. How is that a bad thing?

>Isn't one of the pillars of christianity that christians can be flawed and may deviate from the bible's teachings every now and then, whether consciously or not?
Its one thing to be a sinner and openly admitting it, but its completely another thing to say that this sin is actually ok and approved, so not really need to be improved. Former is simply being a sinner. Latter counts as heresy and/or apostasy.
Damn it, why are you forcing me to justify Papists because of your ignorance?

>destroyed Zoroastrianism
Can wignats stop pretending Christians were ever upset about this? Read any Christian polemics of Muhammad from antiquity and despite calling him a heretic they always unanimously praise him for eradicating a pagan faith.

It becomes a problem when they use the religion as a mask and just continue on being degenerate. A crucifix on one hand and a bloody knife in the other. Don't get me wrong there are some strict Catholics I have met and in my opinion they don't even resemble the religion they worship, but a lot of them are flaky at best, like all their beliefs fly out the window when the opportunity presents itself.

I don't believe in God but never label myself as atheist because it makes you come across as an autistic redditor type.

>Isn't one of the pillars of christianity that christians can be flawed and may deviate from the bible's teachings every now and then, whether consciously or not?
Absolutely not you moron. A pillar is forgiveness, but that requires one to repent and recant their deviations, heresy and/or sins. You cannot actively advocate against scriptural/church teaching and be Christian, and in particular Catholic, which outright has laws which say if you do such, you are automatically excommunicated, meaning you are no longer Catholic

>I can’t pray passionately about my troubles and fears to god so instead I’ll use one a monk wrote in medieval times

I don't think he's claiming anyone at the time was upset about it, just that in hindsight, it was a far better option than what we got

Protestants are just jews but without the monopoly on banking, media and politics

Yeah because people figured out that worshipping a jew is not the right way to go about things
Ah...so the god of the gaps. Everything that can't be explained right now must be the work of god! Woah!
Christianity ruined Rome. Rome was in the height of it's power when they were worshipping hellenic deities, only after Christianity did jews mysteriously gain power, manipulate currency...etc

>"Catholics overwhelmingly vote for left wing progressive politicians in every generation."
It's just that whoever claims this just shows their age and ignorance.
During the 60s and 70s, when Latin America was being ruled by de facto innocent-murdering governments, 98% of the Catholic institutions supported the fascist governments. Hell, some even helped in the distribution of kidnapped babies.

>pagan faith.
Majority of Christian world thought that Zoroastrianism was Monotheistic religion, because of Zurvanism.

Majority of Christian world didn't give a solitary fuck about Persian shit tbqh

A meme spread by the Anglos, because "le ebil ASSpain"

Dude they are literally a theocracy. The reason they make movies is because they aren't a war torn shitholes. Even Saudis make Islamic war kinos about Muslims fighting the Persians and Romans. The reason you don't see movies from certain Muslim countries isn't because of their religion. It's literally because they are war torn and poor.

Protestants reeeeeee with The passion of Christ because a lot of reason, protestants are fucking lame and just cannot process kino.

No they didn't. Zoroastrianism was always a dualistic faith and perceived as such. Pagan just means non Abrahamic in Christian terms.

>kvetching this hard

>Zoroastrianism was always a dualistic faith and perceived as such
Zurvanism wasnt considered as such
>non Abrahamic
>Based retard unironically thinks that church uses the meme term "abrahamic" at all, or grants any kind of legitimacy to pisslam and judaism.
Pagan means unorganised religion without sacred scriptures, mainly spread amongst rural folks, you dumb cretin.

Christians most certainly acknowledge Jews as a former people of God and their only objection to them is that they aren't the true Jews. As for Judaism they literally have the Hebrew Bible as part of of their traditions
>pagan is just for people who have no scriptures
>Paganism (from classical Latin pāgānus "rural, rustic", later "civilian") is a term first used in the fourth century by early Christians for people in the Roman Empire who practiced polytheism.
As for Islam it highly depends on the sect.

A) Former is a keyword here
B)And it means absolutely nothing. Bahais have the Koran as part of their scripture but no one considers them to be muslims.

Yes, because every human being is child of God, made in His image and likeness. God addresses humans in psalms and says "I have said ye are gods and all of you are children of the most high" (Psalm 82:5). This is, what it is meant that entire mankind is eachothers brothers and sisters. And this, certainly, doesnt grant legitimacy to degenerate teachings such as Islam.

You disgusting heathen. You literal swine. WHO had kept the eternal jew at bay, under their heel until your insectuous, subversive jewlike kind decided that "religion bad, Christianity bad"? Why does the fall of Christianity directly correlate the rise of the Shabbat and the ever increasing jewish influence in Western societies? WHO has been naming the Jew for these past 2 millenniums? Certainly not pagan LARP-ers. WHO has been doing the Jew's dirty work by trying to tackle down Christianity? Again, your brethrens. As for the aesthetics of architecture, I think you're quite delusional, "my friend". Christianity is basically Rome's religion, as such it would have influence from what it created it, but Paganism? Please. And do not try to weasel yourself out with "Hellenism", you disgusting snow nigger. We both know modern day paganism is just following the comic book interpretations of Thor and Odin (the actual cum guzzler) and fantasies book for children. Because you faggots definitely do not follow the mud hut, stick building society that was the Nordic one before Christianity uplifted them from degenerate sex addicted hippies into a thriving culture of warriors and builders. And the fall of Christianity in this region, again, directly correlates with them returning back to their gutless roots.
