OH DAMN! 804 years of generation has gone to hell....yeah me included, ..........yet the Norwegian were faithful devoted christians (catholics) until it was deceided that Norway should side with the protestants during the reformation........... Now though the church societies, any denominations , looses on all fronts. I saw we were at the bottom of the list of the European countries when it came to domestic percentage of religious people out of the total population.
I think England was excommunicatd few times too 😂
Im so glad i grew up in a Catholic free society. No person has been burned to stake or killed in the name of Serbian Orthodox church.
In fact the only thing Serbain Orthodox has to do with Christianity is god and christ - all the rest is different, as our church permites, astrology, karma, ghosts, fortune telling, acknowledges reincarnaction, witchraft and random nature related rituals, which i found out, still stuck around from the anceints...

Your church acknowleges these things? Really?
Well here we were never excommunicated...We just burn witches.
Mary is the mother of Jesus Christ, she should never be worshiped, God the Father is the ONLY one that should be worshiped by anyone. worship of anyone else means u make Lucifer your master, Jesus was Gods only Son, nobody comes to The Father but through him and him alone. Jesus could have sinned anytime he wanted to but he knew in his heart that if he did so that would condemn everyone to hell, so he stayed the course and went through life like all of us but he never sinned giving everyone who comes to him eternal life. Mary must have not committed very much sin for God to chose her as the mother of his son. but still sin is sin and God can not stand sin.
jury why are you so hell bent on catholics?
If your really a believer of the scripture than you know that christ asks you to love those that you percieve to be lost and to pray for them and to talk to them in a loving manner about what you percieve to be wrong. You seem to me rather to be playing holier than thou kinda game. It doesn't represent christians properly and makes a further devision between two segments of faith that both believe in jesus christ. Christ didn't want devision, he wanted us to be as one, so if your so concerened about the catholics than maybe you should do some outreach for them and get a conversation going with them about what some possible mis interpratations thye may have from the bible.
I urge you, if thats whats important to you, to seek a loving heart and maybe play a active role in it.
What comes strange to me is that if Catholics really believe in the scriptures - the Bible - then, why contradict most of its concepts?just like most christians do, so why should the catholics be any different. Jury dont act like your church society have monopoly on how to rightfully follow and interpreter the bible cause that aint so at all.
finti, the thing about god creating sin; it's another topic but, he didnt create sin.
He created humans with FREE WILL because he didnt want us to be worshipping robots. Thats what is so wonderful about humans- we can choose. So he gave adam the choice and he screwed up blah blah blah you know the rest.
