😆 Now, you're saying you're a non-practicing Catholic. Actually, there's no such thing. Meaning, it's nonsense. If somebody is a non-practicing Catholic... therefore he's definitely NOT a Catholic.

Anyway, this excuse is very common to Catholic... they defend their faith and man-made doctrines with these styles. Tsk, tsk, tsk no2

As expected. 😂

Well, it is indeed a fact that one Catholic may have a different kind of belief to another... One believes he worships Mary... one cannot admit.

Therefore, Doctrinal Unity inside the Catholic Church is definitely IGNORED.

🙂

One Catholic has admitted. Maybe more to come... And still a lot out there. 😊

ROTFLAMO! You conveniently forgot the rest of my quote there Jury.

My issue with you is your obvious hatred for Catholism, which is wrong in itself, because God has taught us that hatred is wrong. Guess that makes you less than perfect too huh?

And I have no earthly idea what you are babbling on about and I highly suspect that you dont either. But I do have to say as my last comment to you that you are a shallow, self-serving, judgemental, poor excuse for a god fearing individual. You spew hate in almost all your posts and hide it behind little happy faced smilies. If you believe that will absolve you of your transgressions and pave the way to an eternal life, you are sadly mistaken.

Finti baby, I leave you tp debate with this shortsighted little boy. And YES JURY that WAS a SNIDE comment directed right atcha. ✅

😂 Predictable. No, finti can say whatever he likes to. It doesn't matter in this discussion because he has nothing to do with Christians and Catholics... only Atheism.

Well, I acknowledge Jedi Priestess is whether an Idolater - worshiping 'Holy' Images - or a non-practicing Catholic - ignoring the doctrines the Catholic Church upholds.

Thank you for an honest exit from this discussion Jedi. Have a nice day.

Christians do not worship images. Catholics do. There's no need to judge or accuse for what they do. It's already a fact. Very obvious.

Christians - Catholics. There's a difference no matter how you say it.

Yes, fins. Catholics are Christians because IN WORDS they believe in Christ, IN WORDS they obey Christ, IN WORDS they follow Christ. Always IN WORDS.

But when God prohibited the man to make graven images and bow before them and worship them, did they obey Him?

Obviously, no2 NOT.

That's why they have crucifix, scapulars, shrines, images of saints... etc.

crusefix is a symbol of christianity, its not like they worship the cross it is a symbol to reflect the sacrifice god did.

Yes, fins. Catholics are Christians because IN WORDS they believe in Christ, IN WORDS they obey Christ, IN WORDS they follow Christ. Always IN WORDS

Crucifix and the graven image of Jesus is worshiped. One of the Catholic books say so.

"IN WORDS" means they profess their faith to Christ... but obviously they do not follow Him... they even violate Him.

🙂

you are so predictable, is it one of the elders of your little cult that has put upi up to this ,b y reading the WORDS of the bible which your little denomination thinks are the only one who can interpreter it rightfully or is it something out of own arrrogance

That's why I said, this matters for us Christians... not for you fins. 🙂 This discussion is definitely not for you and not for the two of us to be argued with. I have God, you have none. The concept of Idolatry doesn't matter to you. I am concerned with the Bible when I post this thread and you dont. So, your posts and arguments are USELESS.

🙂

the bible states that idolatry is anything that takes our self away from god and away from living for him we are all idolaters in our own ways

And one way that takes the people away from God are these futile act of worshiping graven images.

And TV too.

I have God, you have none

Jury, do you believe in comics????
