Catholics are not Christians.

Strange as this may seem, Catholics live a different way of life guided by the Church. Christians follow or adhere to various forms of a monotheistic Abrahamic religion based on the life of Jesus Christ.

Is it tragic to have no choice but to do what is right?
It’s tragic that you believe such a simplistic view of reality is even remotely possible…
At least you’re still young and perhaps in time you’ll learn to see and appreciate and even understand that reality is made up of millions of colors…

How ironic that this viewpoint you’ve stated is actually incorrect about viewpoints only being right or wrong and therefore only valid and invalid or correct and incorrect because if your argument is true then you’re clearly claiming that the opinion of someone is right or wrong and that just isn’t true. You are making an incorrect assumption. Poor you my sweet misguided myopic friend…

Just look at your trend of thought: one torrent of statements with no punctuation to phrase your argument. Think tidily like a man, for God sakes!

A viewpoint or opinion can only be right or wrong. Only a dingbat is capable of changing her mind a dozen times a minute and feel entitled to do that. All she has to do is make an apology, shed a tear or two, and go right back to swearing that she is absolutely certain of telling the truth.

Yeah, right. This is why people like you sleep around because you are free to make choices. Being chaste is tragic.

Don't they follow very similar set of values?

Didn't Abraham have multiple wives? Yet under Catholic laws, only one wife is allowed.

youre confused. It makes perfect sense

You keep asserting this but offer no explanation why you do that. I explained why I made the distinction. Can you offer critical comment on my explanation? Are you capable of doing that?

@starbucksgirly Ok, I appreciate your attempt to educate me. Have a good day.

That wasn’t his name. If what you say is true perhaps they are not “Christians” because they don’t use his actual name?

Back to 🇪🇹 containing hebrews and Christians, there is evidence of dark African people invading 🇪🇬 in the past plus Ethiopia 🇪🇹 is rather close to 🇪🇬. Having left Ancient Egypt Hebrawic people could have gone up the Nile and its tributaries leading into Ethiopia. There is also the fact that there a history of horrible ethnic cleansings in Ethiopia not unlike the horrible treatment Jewish people have suffered in history.

European Jews claim they are suffering even now. I find this hard to believe because they are controlling power in western cultures. They are good at what the do and successful doing it. I am not aware of dark African Jews. If they exist,then they can't be good at what they do.

You say Catholics are not Christians, they have done their darnedest to be the most powerful and prestigious Church and the only. Perhaps the two “tribes” you have mentioned have done a same or similar thing to monopolize sympathy from Christians, Catholics and others. The way the Catholics claimed to be one true group connected to “Jesus Christ” in the early days.

As I pointed out, I am a lapsed Catholic. I have no attachment to the faith and am making objective observation of the fundamental difference between the teaching of the Church and Christian doctrines in general. Also, as an organization, the Vatican is first among nation states in the secular world.

The two "tribes" you refer to are the European Jews and the Arab Jews. I am not aware of either tribe monopolizing sympathy from Christians. It is the Christians who feel beholden to Jews. The Catholics, not so much because their spiritual theology is not informed by Hebrew scripture. Christianity is founded on Jewish scripture, and the only element it has in common with Catholicism is Jesus Christ. Like Christians, Hindus also worship Jesus but their faith is based on the scripture of Hinduism.

You or someone else here said Noah had three sons what if he had a daughter or two and she moved to Africa and her descendants became Christians, Muslims and others, over the years.

It is not me. I have no interest in Jewish scripture.

The opposite. Catholics are the only real Christians. All other Christians are sects of Catholicism

How would you explain this? Catholic theology does not inform the way of life of people outside the Church.
There are saved Roman Catholics, though.

Catholics have their shepherd in the vicar of Christ. Christians seek their own respective paths.

what is your point or end goal? Because whatever youre trying to say isnt going anywhere because catholics are in fact christians.

My point is that you have a wrong impression. You see everything at a shallow level. Do all monkeys look alike to you? They do, right? So, it doesn't matter which monkey gets the banana.

dude you are 41-45 years old yet you don't know this? Either you don't have a decent education or you're slow.

First of all, are you a Christian? Which denomination? Are you a Catholic? Or are you a non-practioner of religious faith and just an atheist strutting your stuff?

I am a lapsed Catholic, and studied to be a Jesuit priest. Didn't work out. From the outside looking in, all faiths based on the Christian Bible are considered as Christianity. Is that your education?
All Catholics are Christians
I disagree with the tittle although the body has some truth. The Catholic church prefers tradition over biblical authority, but one of those traditions is that Jesus is the Way, the Truth and the Life

Yes, the title is a little stark even if I don't think it is inaccurate.

Biblical authority is a strange beast that can be anyone who can command a following. This is the situation with Christianity.

orthodoxy is the only true faith;

Quite right. Faith is based on authorized or generally accepted theory, doctrine, or practice. Science is also an orthodoxy.
