Also, and equally or perhaps superior to Lepanto was Charles Martel and his victory the Battle of Tours. It allowed Europe to establish Christian kingdoms coming out of the Dark Ages.


Tours, Lepanto, and the 2 battles of Vienna (1529, 1683) saved Western Civilization from Islamic rule and made sure that all you frickers (Catholic/Protestant/Atheist/Whatever the frick you want because religious freedom came from the evolution to modern Western society) can live in a socially/technologically/politically advanced civilization with air conditioning and the ability to argue religion online without being killed or made a second class citizen.

Wow...if only Catholics would read the bible, they wouldn't remain in that system long. There are so many Catholic teachings/beliefs that contradict scripture such as a works salvation rather than through faith in Christ ALONE, worship/deification of Mary when Mary's only command was, "Whatever He(Christ) says do it", invention of purgatory to keep relatives paying clergy to pray their loved ones out of that place that doesn't exist according to the bible, going to a priest for forgiveness of sins when we can go directly to Christ, and on, and on, and on.....

American Catholics should split from the Roman Church. Keep all the beliefs, dogma, doctrine, mythos, Church teachings, etc but lose the Pope and international hierarchy as it is. Kind of like Church of England but not sell out like they did. Keep most tradition- hell, maybe even require Latin Mass. Possibly allow priests to marry but go balls to the wall legal and ecclesiastical consequences on any molesting piece of shite.

BTW, the Church is not the hierarchy or institution. The Church is the people that make it up, the overwhelming majority of whom are good people (Incidentally, that includes the majority of those taking Holy Orders)

Also, thank God for the Holy League in 1571.

Catholics and Protestants should quit arguing over pointless BS and unite to defend itself from the existential threat of communism/totalitarianism taking over our world as we speak.

Catholic Church is corrupt, always has been. The European governments were the Catholic Church back in the day

Came to read about a medieval battle. Found a modern day battle between cultists that throw shade at each others cult.

Jesus Christ established the Catholic Church and appointed Peter as the leader of His Church. Satan has battled against the Catholic Church ever since


Nope

There was a reason the Catholic leadership of the Middle Ages wanted the Bible kept in Latin so the layperson couldn’t read it.

Hard to do when the head of your church is a totalitarian.

For centuries Latin was the universal language of the Catholic Church.

His point I believe is because Satan is working to undermine that which he fears the most, which is The Catholic Church.


I don’t mean to be the Jew in the punch bowl here, but doesn’t this logic lead us to conclude Satan’s worst fear is the chosen people?

So you are claiming that pedophilia literally proves that your religion is correct and your god is the True God.

Take that shite to the poltab -- it doesn't belong where decent people come meet for conversation.
