I'm a Calvinist btw; you can believe whatever you want and God will sort us all out in the end.

I suspect that many of the 'tradcath' converts don't adhere to Catholicism in any meaningful way despite their arrogant posturing towards Protestants.
I have heard this accusation a lot. It always gives me pause because the tradcath epithet seems so nebulous. What exactly do you mean by it?Absolutely this. It’s a culture to latch onto to give them some sort of community and feeling of superiority. They don’t actually care about the principles of Christianity.
They self identified as Tradcath, as in they literally called themselves that.I have heard this accusation a lot. It always gives me pause because the tradcath epithet seems so nebulous. What exactly do you mean by it?
Originally it meant Catholics who preferred the pre-Vatican II Latin Mass, breviary, devotions and liturgical calendar. In terms of moral issues, there should be no differences between them and other Catholics if they follow the teachings of the Church. Of course, that spans the gambit from completely orthodox groups such as the FSSP to hardcore sedevacantists like the CMRI.I don’t know what a Tradcath is supposed to be, because I’ve never met two that shared a consistent set of beliefs.
Out of all the Christian sects, frankly, I find Calvinism by far the most liberating. I mean, if you're damned no matter what you do, you're free to do anything. That's why I tell people trying to evangelize to me that I'm already set aside for destruction for the glory of God and who are they to tell me otherwise?I'm a Calvinist btw; you can believe whatever you want and God will sort us all out in the end.
Ya got the scent, hound dog.As well as the fact many people pretending to be traditional Catholics online don't actually have the catechesis behind their alleged faith and come up with strange beliefs of their own as a result.
You would think that, but I've seen some evidence that Catholics are less moral people, which is how old-fashioned Protestants around here tend to see them. Basically, the Catholic strawman of Protestantism is what you described. The Protestant strawman of Catholicism is that Catholics just buy their way, cheaply, out of any wrongdoing they do with empty prayers.Out of all the Christian sects, frankly, I find Calvinism by far the most liberating.

No, that's actual Irish politics. To be more on point, Northern Irish politics. It's a mix between a joke and a serious statement.View attachment 6205352
Normally, I would assume this was a joke, but I’ve seen this same sentiment dozens of times with Crusader LARPers.

I watched a number of “Tradcaths” convert to Norse paganism after the pope started supporting refugees. Their religion was always just a loose justification for their current political beliefs.
Gonna have to wait long for that, Null permabanned Best Girl.You may rate the OP autistic, but wait till Android Raptor shows up.
100% signed, Francisco is the worst pope in the history of the church. They really need to bring a man of Karol's calibre back to save their steadily dwindling numbers.I was born and raised Catholic, and I have little to no tolerance for Catholics anymore.
Catholics have become such spineless faggots over the years.
And the Pope is a pedophile commie.
While i know that shit exists i haven't seen it IRL before. I am much more concerned with Francisco's views and propagating of "progressive" values, especially regarding homo filth. And the huge numbers of catholics who still take his word as gospel.Man, Protestants are running around with fag flags on their churches and female pastors for literal years now.
Elucidate me, was there ever made a concentrated effort to convert your abbo brethren to Christianity?But that's what protestants are, though.
Of course there was. About half of us are good, God-fearing Roman Catholics, and then the other half follow some kind of primitive, tribal dirt-worshipping made-up joke faith like Anglican or Lutheran or whatever.Elucidate me, was there ever made a concentrated effort to convert your abbo brethren to Christianity?
This reminds me of Americans with a last name like DeLucca or Kowalski sending money to the IRA when their relatives were last in Ireland 150 years ago.Normally, I would assume this was a joke, but I’ve seen this same sentiment dozens of times with Crusader LARPers.
Never seen much of a difference myself, but it depends a lot more in my experience on the role of the church in the community. If it's a big Catholic area you get a lot of cultural/cafeteria Catholics who stick to it for those reasons but don't really embrace the faith. A mission church out in rural Kansas where they're a tiny minority will be a whole different story.You would think that, but I've seen some evidence that Catholics are less moral people, which is how old-fashioned Protestants around here tend to see them.

This lasted a long time after the colonial period as well, I know exactly what the author is describing. My family's from eastern PA.And the Pennsylvanians had more of a healthy acceptance of death, a great equanimity about it. I imagine them like those good old people who lived good lives, are at peace with themselves and so are at peace with the idea of dying.
She wasn't banned when I posted that but... Man. I simultaneously want her back but also I want her to burn in hell for being a bit of a Portable Document File, or at least someone who has no issues normalizing it.Gonna have to wait long for that, Null permabanned Best Girl.
News to me, i quite liked her when she wasn't in full "Kill them crackaz babies!" Mode.Portable Document File
You can see the roots of it in the boundaries of the patriarchates themselves. Rome's was gigantic, bigger than all of the others combined and when new areas were evangelized, they were usually under Roman control.And all of this happened because the Pope at the time decided he was better than the other patriarchs.
Well, she was always weird about young boys, but the stuff she posted in the BPgoonergate scandal definitely crossed a lot of lines. IDK if she posted any actual pictures or drawings but I wouldn't be surprised if she is even more gross in private. Come to think of it, a lot of users from BP got implicated. but that's off-topic so if you want more deets I suggest visiting the main thread.News to me, i quite liked her when she wasn't in full "Kill them crackaz babies!"
