Seriously, Protestantism and especially American Protestantism is heresy, but how do you reconcile your catholic beliefs with the current Anti-Pope?

Yep, Catholics aren't allowed to worship idols
Parker Wright
where does it say about teachers
Carson Taylor
Not hard.
You take a weekly class where they explain the basic doctrine just so you know exactly what it is you will be believing, to make sure you actually agree and understand.
Then you become baptized and take communion.

Then perhaps you can see that Priests are not called "father" for that reason.

Kiwi, you are a disgrace to your country. Take the pride dress off and the devil's cock out of your mouth.
user, I'm a convert. Don't focus at all on Francis (I personally think Benedict is still Pope technically and is validating some of the barebones Francis decisions, like appointments.) While the Prots and Orthoboos are dead wrong, some Catholics miss the point of Papal Infallibility and the reverence due to the office. We know that knowledge of who the particular Pope in one's lifetime is is not needed for salvation.
Most parishes have RCIA. Start with My Catholic Faith, St Ignatius of Antioch, St Bonaventure, and the Douay Rheims Bible. Ave Maria.

We did and you didn't listen.
You call your biological father, father.
You know then that there is more to the scripture than the word "father" in of itself.
The point of the scripture is to acknowledge no one but GOD as your true father.
But you seen going to stop calling your Dad, Father.
Because it's not about that.
Landon Taylor
>greenlight gay sex never happened
Jace Scott
Maybe YOU should learn more so you have a response to that guy's argument instead of evading the question. The only Catholic argument I've seen is that Jesus didn't mean ''call no man father'' literally, but rather was referring to spiritual leaders who used such titles. Which seems very likely to be true, and does basically nothing to defend the Catholic use of the term for their priests. Like those arrogant rabbis, Catholic clergy are using the term father to give themselves undeserved authority.
Christopher Wilson
its not about family its about people treating priests is being spiritually above others and calling them father
Angel Foster
Fellow Burger, thank you for bringing this up. Fedoras, faithless Prots, and tretcherous Orthoboos don't like to examine this reciprocal to their weak arguments.

Thanks in advance

Brandon Foster

You would be wrong there. Also, he did not greenlight it per se, he only said he wouldn't judge.
Other Popes have gone further with such things.
>and make out with a black man's unwashed foot.
Wrong again.
Catholics have gone decades without a Pope even being in the office. Or with anti-popes going around.
We will survive the silliness that is the modern day Vatican.
>its not about family its about people treating priests is being spiritually above others and calling them father
Buddy, calling them father as you already know is symbolic and has nothing to do with what you were talking about.
Also, most Catholics don't see Priests as being above them at all.
In fact, we are more than happy to look down on them. They are just men.

Hunter Butler
When you treat *ANY* human's dictates and interpretations as matters of truth, it's hard to take you seriously as a Christian.
And with all the multitudes of extra-Biblical shit you cling to so desperately as dogma and doctrine, you certainly do take the words of men far far too seriously.

Tyler Gonzalez

Jeremiah James
I respect Orthodox though. Protestants were a mistake.
Lincoln Foster
See Catholics admit that Jesus was talking about people using the term father to give themselves undeserved spiritual authority, but then go on to claim that Jesus wouldn't have had a problem with their Holy Papa claiming to be able to infallibly speak on behalf of God, or their Father-Priests being the only means through which Christians can repent of their sins. Basically for Catholics Matthew 23:9 might as well not mean anything at all, either literal or symbolic, since according to them both legitimate and illegitimate spiritual authorities could both be literally referred to as father.
Caleb Green
Yep. As a matter of faith. I am not compelled to believe such, and I'm not obligated to believe any more or less than that by virtue of either where I might have stumbled upon information which lead me to that conclusion or else on mere virtue of having that understanding.
Nah he actually did make out with a black man's barefoot. It was disgusting. I've seen the foot.
He's the POPE. He's supposed to judge. You know that "judge not lest ye be judged" bit is taken out of context right? Read the full passage
Easton Parker
That's literally what dogma and doctrine are.
Blake Kelly
>Reddit Go the fuck back, NOW.
John Lee
>since according to them both legitimate and illegitimate spiritual authorities could both be literally referred to as father
Joshua Murphy
No - dogma means belief in something as incontrovertible. You believe it's incontrovertibly the case that what you believe is true.
James Nguyen
they mean do not judge on issues they it would hypocritical about like adultery when you are also cheating on your wife
Bentley Brown
and the fact that Jesus is God, is something that is incontrovertible if you study the scriptures correctly.
Wouldn't you agree?
Brayden Turner
No, it's not incontrovertible, because Scripture is not necessarily true. I take it as a matter of faith that it is and act as if it were, but I am not so intellectually bereft and deluded that I pretend what I believe is simply, brutely true and nobody can possibly doubt it without being wrong(.) as you do.
Chase Morgan
>because Scripture is not necessarily true. Boy what the fuck are you talking about
Gabriel Powell
>No, it's not incontrovertible, because Scripture is not necessarily true.
If you believe Jesus's divinity as God, or the Son of God is not incontrovertible, then perhaps you don't have as much faith as you think you do.
Kayden Peterson
>Jesus might not be God
I guess Islam might be true then.
Levi Collins
>Scripture is not necessarily true. Wat?
Benjamin Fisher
That's exactly the kind of shallow thoughtlessness and disinterest in intellectual integrity and honesty I've come to regularly expect from Catholics.
Do you know what the word "incontrovertible" means? If something is incontrovertible, you don't take it on faith. It's knowledge. Faith and knowledge are epistemologically distinct.
