bullshite. Look up the definition of the word first and then we can have a discussion on the numerous times in the Bible where Jesus told people what to do from a religious perspective.

Of course I would be arguing that from an orthodox Christian perspective, which you’ve already admitted to not being, so perhaps it’s a waste of my time.

They’ll realize what they did when they sober up, and then brawl with the Muslims at the pub.

Not even close. The God of the Quran and the God of the Bible are extremely different.

A fundamentalist (you?) would say this means that everyone who isn’t a Christian is going to hell.




If you had a disease and there was only one proven medication that addressed said disease, you could try all the various medicines available but that doesn't make a hill of beans worth of difference to the disease because it only responds to that one. If you're a Christian, you believe that Christ literally lived a sinless life, died and rose again fulfilling dozens of prophecies as a living messiah. So yes, Christians believe that since nobody else has been able to pull that off, Jesus and Jesus alone is that aforementioned medicine.

Many others think it means to live a “Christ-like” life.



None of us live a Christ-like life.

When the Pharisees demanded that Jesus tell them which of their 116 rules were the most important?



Not trying to be a prick, but that's a example is missing about as much relevant context as one could be missing.

Yes, as well as the Quran. In comparison of the two Yahweh (even in the Old Testament) is far more loving, personal, and forgiving than Allah in the Quran.

I suppose you were absent from class on the days when Jesus describes the people who will not inherit the kingdom of God. Or when he talks about people getting to their judgement and relying on themselves and their good works and he responds that they depart from him in I believe Matthew.


Or when he affirms the commandment to love the lord your god with all your mind, heart, and strength.

God is and has always been a loving and patient God, and it is pointed out many times in both testaments.

Most of the ancient Hebrews were morons that defied God at every turn, yet he loved them and forgave them constantly. So much so, that he sent his Word to better reach them and all of humanity. God has and will always seek mankind. This is a consistent them throughout the entire Bible.

I did a few years ago. It was excruciatingly boring and, honestly, forgettable. I didn’t retain much at all bc it was such a slog to get through.

But I don’t enjoy the prophet or psalms books of the Bible either. Just a personal preference.

Yep. We true Catholics are fed up with ala-carte Catholicism. For 2000 years, the Catholic Church has faced its enemies. She has been purified in the crucible of the world of every sort of schism, heresy, and doctrinal error you can throw at her.

Our Holy Mother, the Catholic Church, has become more vital than ever through the storm. She now presents herself to a profoundly wounded world with absolute clarity of message - "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life" - John 3:16

And critical to that message is there is NO salvation without the Cross. That is why the Body of Christ (that be us) are struggling against our fallen human nature during Lent. I'll say it. Do not attempt to hand me a watered-down, fake, inclusive imitation of the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass.

We devote Catholics are not reeds blowing in the wind. Just like Yeshua, our leader, we have been tested in the cleansing fire of the world. Rage on satan, you may kill us, but you will NOT defeat us. We are the Church Militant, backed up with and by the prayers of the Church Triumphant in Heaven.

We want God. We will NOT settle for a silly imitation.

Exaudi nos Domine Deus deprecationem nostram, confirma nos in insidiis inimici tui, Amen.

Certainly any fool can see that you don’t have to hate other religions to keep them out of your own damn church. I mean, this conversation is incredible. Liberals now think Christian’s have duty to allow non Christians to literally take over their churches.

Once again, westerners are held to a suicidal standard that no other people in the history of the planet have ever been held to. We must open our borders, be less ethnically and culturally homogeneous, hate our own history, and now turn over our fricking churches.

Jesus will defeat the Antichrist per Muslim belief
Did you continue and read where Jesus will then announce where he is really a Muslim and tell his followers they should be.
Jesus said He was the way the truth and the life. NO one can come to the Father but thru Him
