@ArdainianRight Wait, Rabbi Shmuley is linked to the Vatican? That low-class Jewish rat goblin whose entire claim to fame is being an obnoxious Jew on video and losing arguments on livestreams has actual ties to the actual Vatican?
How ridiculous. If I still had the capacity to be surprised I would be shocked right now.
@Leyonhjelm@ArdainianRight@HarryNuggets@LivingSpaceStudios I'm somewhat sympathetic to it because I'm Eastern Catholic and they were pushing romanization on us until Vatican 2 formalized what was supposed to be present already (a respect for our unique church traditions). I just wish they would've kept the same respect for the Roman ones.
The biggest crimes of Vatican 2 are primarily the way it throws out a pile of tradition for the sake of ease. Latin isn’t easy for everyone but ease isn’t the point. Ease makes things feel less valuable.
@Eiregoat@ArdainianRight@HarryNuggets@LivingSpaceStudios Orientalium Ecclesiarum - approved on November 20, 1964 >[T]hese individual Churches, whether of the East or the West,…are, each as much as the others, entrusted to the pastoral government of the Roman Pontiff, the divinely appointed successor of St. Peter in primacy over the universal Church. They are consequently of equal dignity, so that none of them is superior to the others as regards rite and they enjoy the same rights and are under the same obligations, also in respect of preaching the Gospel to the whole world (cf. Mark 16, 15) under the guidance of the Roman Pontiff. (3)
@Witch_Hunter_Siegfried@ArdainianRight@HarryNuggets@LivingSpaceStudios That isn't Vatican 2, although some argue it's the spirit of it that allowed such things. Pope Francis did many things I, and most Catholics, disagree with. >Foot washing This is reenacted in a lot of churches yearly during Holy Week wherein the Bishop will wash the feet of priests or leity as Christ did to His Apostles. The point is to symbolize that as a leader he is a servant, as it's the type of thing you'd normally expect a lesser to do rather than the king of kings. Doing it for migrants who aren't necessarily even Christian is questionable if not an outright perversion of the intended purpose.
>The pope literally kisses nigger feet >Calls anti-semitism a sin >Sponsors mass immigration and whined about Trump saying he’s going to deport them How is this anything but an enemy?
@Witch_Hunter_Siegfried@ArdainianRight@HarryNuggets@LivingSpaceStudios >Calls anti-semitism a sin If you have blanket hatred without love, it's wrong. Rockwell actually does a good defense of 'hatred' in this manner, although as Christians we are called to love our enemies but NOT GOD'S ENEMIES. The proverbial deli jew is not the same as a George Soros type. The church has a long history of expounding on what is and what isn't appropriate when it comes to the jews. The short answer is it's not okay to kill them for the act of being jewish alone, but the long answers are much more complicated and don't involve capitulation so much as clarification on what they are permitted to do and how we are to act towards them. >Sponsors mass immigration and whined about Trump saying he’s going to deport them Third world behavior and particularly liberation theology, motivated a lot of Francis' actions. It's not great and very far from the tradition of The Church.
@Jonny@Witch_Hunter_Siegfried@ArdainianRight@HarryNuggets@LivingSpaceStudios Part of the Church's original message on the jews was to avoid them. They can't have power if you don't give it to them. Christians of all types used to not comingle with them. One of the few exceptions to this was The Freemasons, which is pretty funny since even entry level conspiracy investigation finds a lot of "Masonic" involvement. Needless to say, Catholics can't join the Masons to this day without being excommunicated.
