It may just get me banned from the poli-board, which would be a blessing because I get sucked in over there occasionally.

One must understand the history of the KJV bible. The King James bible was a politically inspired document created at the command of James VI of England because the Church of England, founded by the late Henry VIII and the Puritans of the early 1600's were at each others throats about what was the correct interpretation of scripture. James tired of this and forced them both to work together to come up with what is the King James bible. What resulted was a negotiated political interpretation of the day. The Catholics, who were politically banned in England at the time, had their own ideas and added their own books to the bible.

Anybody who takes the bible to be the literal word of God discounts the fact that its a political document from the 1600s. I am not saying its not a master work with inspiration from God, but time, language and politics over centuries have shaped the Good book.

Read just a little bit about that in Rebellion by Peter Ackroyd. Very interesting stuff. King James was also probably gay. He'd pick out good looking young men and obsess over them and dote on them, spending the country in to bankruptcy to keep them in nice clothes. He'd take estates from grieving windows and give them to his favorites. He had fun.

That isn't how that happened. The books were already in the Bible, the Protestants took them out. 17th Century England didn't influence the evolution of the Bible within the Catholic church.

There was actually a plot to kill King James and the parliament by Catholic dissidents via blowing up the parliament house. Cant imagine that helped heal the gap between England and the Catholics caused by Henry's need for a new side ho or 3

I can't believe you buy that fake news, you're better than that. Huguenot bots put that out and it's just accepted as fact.

Enlighten me on the truth then

I don't think so, Huguenots were French protestants who showed their contempt for the church by embracing gluttony to an extreme, growing as obese and as corpulent as possible.

The Gunpowder plot was just an English version of the Moscow apartment bombings.

You really think the Russian government used that as an excuse to go after the Chechnyans and the Russian government was somehow involved in the bombings? No way theyd do that. Even we wouldn't do that cough operation north woods cough

See this is why I like you, I can mention things like that and you pick up on it without missing a beat. I dunno man but I'm of the mind that I both think that the Moscow Bombings were probably the work of the government and it was also justified in going in and sorting out the Chechens, pretext or not.

This is one of the things that pisses me off about the Catholic Church.

The Holy Sacrament is ridiculous. It's a gross misrepresentation of the communion ritual outlined in Scripture. If they allowed the REAL sacrament this world would be a much better place.

Back in the day people ate UNLEAVENED bread (psychedelic) and the red wine wasn't wine at all. It was water turned red through soaking a muscarine mushroom in it. The result, when taken together, was everyone was tripping balls. Talking in tongues. What have you.

Today the Catholic Church tells people you shouldn't use drugs of any sort even though the Pope's frickin outfit is literally meant to look like the muscarine mushroom.



ETA: Communion with God means to talk with God. Which is exactly what many many people report to do while on these substances. And the scripture paints a perfect picture of what happens when a person is high on psychoactive substances.

So again, we have the Church hoarding knowledge. Keeping the peasants down. Just as they used to prohibit peasant types from learning to read.

The Catholic Church has about 1,500 years worth of bad shite accumulated at this point. I don't know why ANYONE continues to associate with that organization.

Subtlety is your friend. You really did go overboard with this one, but I applaud the effort.

That wasn't a troll post. Those are my opinions on the Catholic Church. I don't hold that Church in high regard at all.

I have nothing against practicing Catholics. I mean, KSGamecock is obviously a good dude. So I don't mean any ill will or anything like that. It's just that that Church is poison. And it shouldn't even be questioned at this point.

It's been TWENTY frickING YEARS since the Boston Globe revealed to the world that the Church has an ENORMOUS problem with pederast type priests. Has anything been done about it?? frick NO. If anything, the problem has only gotten worse.

I eagerly anticipate the day that they haul every motherfricker in the Vatican out in handcuffs and then bomb that fricking place.

I was going to jump in this from the perspective of a guy who was partially raised a Baptist and an Episcopalian, and has a step mother and half brother and sister that were Catholics. Best friend is a Catholic as well.

But I think Ed has pretty much killed the spirit of the thread off.
Not hating on you or your opinion Ed. The Catholic church has some ne'er do wells in it as do all organized places of worship.

I will just add that asking someone to pray for you does not necessarily deify them.
