See, I think they’re more Christian than you. The rosary is simply a reminder to pray quietly and not show off their religion. Something you seem to have missed. And what about not judging?
It’s all moot. Y’all are arguing over different flavors of a fanfic. Real Jesus was nothing like the book.
The rosary is simply a reminder to pray quietly and not show off their religion
Nope, the Bible doesn’t say anything about beads. Prayer is meant to be simple. The rosary is adding to God’s word.
Revalation 22:18 “ For I testify unto every man that heareth the words of the prophecy of this book, If any man shall add unto these things, God shall add unto him the plagues that are written in this book”
It sounds like you had a brush with death and that you think God saved you and that you need to go profess his message.
If I can offer an alternate viewpoint.
You almost died and God put you back on Earth to improve the situation and lives of others. And one thing I can tell you about religion is it does not do this. People get so caught up in proselytizing that they don’t actually do anything good. Lip service instead of real progress. Nitpicking and fighting with each other over differing interpretations.
Jesus’s message was very clear: help others. That’s the whole fucking thing. And every time you judge someone to be less or more Christian than you, you’re not helping anybody.
Donating, charity work, voting for socialist policies, volunteering: these are things that actually move the needle. And none of these require religion.
So do the world a favor. Put down the judgy attitude, grab a lawn mower, and go mow some old ladies lawn for free.
I’ll ask you again: yes or no, do you believe a church (the Catholic Church) which allows and enables its preachers all throughout its history to molest children is a church of Christ?
I mean… It’s a fact if you believe what’s written in the book, right? Mary was like a 14-year-old girl. God is a god. The power dynamic there is super inappropriate. How is she going to say no? That’s just straight-up rape.

The Bible also says nothing about typing. So why are you still here?
I shouldn’t be. I wouldn’t be if things had gone ever so slightly different. Idk if God saved me or whatever

Nope.
You don’t know what happened to me. I’m not interested in your opinion of me or my ‘judgy’ attitude.
Blocked.

Yes. Because God impregnated a child to birth your savior. Let alone the power differential. Consent was literally impossible.
And what’s good enough for the goose is good enough for the gander. Or gosling, in this case.
You may keep it
Well that’s your opinion
