Never get married, save and grow your money so you can retire early and sleep with young women until you're 70. And never be a believer in any religion.

It sounds good, but does it stand up to scrutiny? How much money does one need for those things you mention?

Girls and sons who have not been loved by their fathers seek attention once teens and adults to compensate for what they didn't have originally. Fathers either left them alone, or were distant most of the time and not encouraging them. Some even despised them which would shape their personality and the way they interact with others for the rest of their life. They are extremistic in everything they do, always looking exaggeratly for attention (Hello Goodrum), and have troubles adapting to society's rules, because they also have troubles defining their own identity and respecting authority and hierarchy.

Also boys who got picked on by others during childhood and adolescence -often sons without a father figure- try to compensate by lifting weights, to develop muscles and survive in ther male world. They're insecure because they're girly, childish, feminine having been raised by a single mom. They lift obsessively hoping it will transform them into men, to compensate for their lack of influence from a father figure that was not there. Unfortunately they can get as big as they can but it doesn't cure their insecurity and who they truly are, how they grew up being raised by a single mom. They're not as manly as other men whatever they do, and they often have a big lack of masculine presence they don't know how to balance, hence often being borderline homosexuals while trying to get their manhood back through various manly activities (MMA, cars, weight lifting etc.).

They are often the ones that, in order to get respect from other males, will go the steroids route to get even "bigger", attempting to cure their insecurity, but being natural not being "enough", they still feel "too small", insecure, amongst other males. The lack of a father figure also often means they didn't have guidance to continue studies and are often working shitty manual jobs.

That is correct and I don't lift weights, nor do I pursue MMA, fast cars etc.

Asking for a friend:

Lets say you turn religious later in life and find out your wife has been attending the unbiblical denomination of Roman Catholicism her entire life. Seems to me that you must then educate her and convert her to the right religion or divorce if she refuses 

It's clear to me that catholics are going to hell, but what about protestants who marry a catholic without converting the spouse to protestantism   

What’s the difference between the two really? I don’t know. Catholics use a non King James Version bible right? I know a bit about why Martin Luther broke away from Catholic Church but anyway, not sure why they end up in hell. Can you elaborate?

There have been volumes written on this topic. But just some simple things:

-Catholics constantly make up random shit and claim it is oral tradition handed over to them from the apostles and they give those made up traditions the same level of authority as the holy scriptures.

-Catholics worhip Mary and claim she is the intermediary between man and God while this goes directly against what scripture says

-Catholics claim that the pope is a direct successor of the apostle Peter and that he is infallible

Tons of other insane shit

Regarding KJV, it's historically been a great and respected translation. But there is a US based movement of hard retards who believe that the KJV is the highest and infallible authority. (Superior to even original manuscripts). KjV vontinues to be used across all denominations. But people who care about accuracy usually use critical text based modern translations nowadays.

For when they die, both of them might consider such graves. One located in the protestant cemetery, the other in the katholic part. And two tall gravestones shaking hands:

This topic is at the forefront of my mind with increasing intensity. I really feel a very strong compulsion to follow through on this. Thoughts?

[BigRo]

This is the woman you married because you love her, learn more about how Jesus loved people, seeing the real person and soul within and not condemning people because of exteriors which are not even important to God compared to where the heart is at.

Roman catholicism is a paganised version of Christianity.

They pray to and worship people such as Mary, Joseph and 'saints'.

Their sect follows ideas which are not listed in any translation of the Bible, such as priests not being allowed to marry, confession, worshipping Mary and venerating idols.

In summary, they are idolaters.

it is the depth of the faith that matters more than all your weighty concerns. Jesus is still central to Catholics.

No Catholic Church, no bible, read some Church Fathers while you`re at it...

Collections of these Christian texts existed before Roman catholicism.

Protestant Christian and catholic bibles do not have the same collection of texts.

The catholics added their own ideas which do not exist in any of these texts.

[mac33]

Wrong, protestants removed books of the bible and altered some texts even (Luther for example), the orthodox and catholics are stemming from same tradition, protestants do only that, protest the Church and its authority making up bogus stuff and lies on the teaching of the Church.

Even more, canonization of the texts of the bible was done by the Catholic Church yet protestants have no objection to that. Protestantism is a religion of self, no magisterium, no authority, no tradition, ignoring what the bible actually teaches and says, interpreting each text freely as you go, denomination by denomination, pastor after pastor, fracturing more and more...

Book of Enoch

Interesting stuff
https://pastorvlad.org/enoch/

These angels see the earth’s women as beautiful, so they decide to leave their heavenly home to marry them. The angels now on earth teach humans various forbidden knowledge and crafts, which lead to warfare, sorcery, and all other sins. This angel and human union produce a hybrid offspring called Nephilim, who are giants that bring havoc on this earth and consume humans alive, leading to widespread despair.


Sounds legit.

[Griffith]

Should be noted that Protestants favoured the Hebrew Old Testament and the catholics the later Greek version which included an extra 7 books. Luther didn't exclude them but put them in a different section. However, some Protestant Bibles today exclude them and they are compiled in a separate book called The Apocrypha.

Also, catholics argument against Luther is on a single word used in his German translation of Greek but which isn't used in any other Protestant translation of other languages.

Catholics and Protestants should join together for yet another Crusade.




Imagine the Western World (NorthAmerica/Canada, Europe) without any Africans or Middle-Easterners.

No Protestants without first having Catholics.
