Fuck your “doctrine,” we’re looking at practice. In practice, Orthodoxy is measurably more fucked up with respect to faggot shit than LDS is. In my poll, you should choose option two, as it fits perfectly.
@NEETzsche@NEETzsche Orthodox doctrine prohibits homosexual practice and lifestyle. Full stop. Priests aren't allowed to be gay. No gay weddings. If someone is gay, penitent, and non-practicing, they are accepted as a fellow flawed human being.
The opinions of any particular group of parishioners is not how we define doctrine or practice: again, that's a western thing.
@NEETzsche@jeremiah Was that poll taken in America? If so, I'm surprised it was that low. Decades of fag propaganda have really done a number on people here. Kudos to Mormons for knocking it out of the park, though! 😂
@jeremiah@NEETzsche People don't seem to get that neither the Catholic nor Orthodox Christian Churches will bend the knee to globohomo just because citizenry think it's a good idea. Doctrine doesn't change just because society wants it to, especially in the East. Truth doesn't change. The church is supposed to be a light to the world, even if the world is very very dark. Dark times have happened in the past and they'll happen again.
So anyway, back on topic, jeremiah first starts out by arguing that the poll doesn’t count because muh sample size then immediately shifts the goalposts to muh doctrine lol lmao. Anyway, the numbers say this:
Mormons take a W. Jehovah’s Witnesses take an even bigger W. Orthocucks take an L.
I’m not far from that, although I read a lot more than just the Bible. I also like to break orthocuck balls about how they edited it and cherry picked scripture in the early church, and brutally suppressed non-orthodox christian groups while insisting that orthodoxy=christianity. There’s something very satisfying about this. I can’t explain it.
@basadeskaiser@NEETzsche@jeremiah Dig this, you don't even need to join a church to be a (based) practicing Christian. You see, there's this book and inside it is all you need to know! They even have nice ones at Barnes and Noble with built in bookmarks and tabs and shit!
@NEETzsche@caekislove@jeremiah is there a turbo based church or are all of them cucked to some degree? It's like you are forced to pick tradeoffs. In any case JW and Mormons take the huge win here. Even though I like orthodox priests blessing guns and missiles.
@NEETzsche@caekislove@jeremiah regarding polls, friendly reminder that muslims in the west are just as degenerates as the average westerner. If you are not gonna be a terrorist, beat women, ride camels and fly on carpets then why bother?
@Eiregoat@NEETzsche@jeremiah The Pope can't just change doctrine because he feels like it, or if he can in theory it wouldn't happen in practice. There's a number of problems with his liberation theology mindset, but that's distinct from his influence on the church doctrine. At the present rate the RCC has at least until the next pope for any sort of gay boi endorsement, at most pessimistic. Possibly will hold the line indefinitely. We'll likely see married priests before gay Catholic "marriage" will be Church approved.
