Ok. So why are you defending against my points if you don't attend? Are you actually familiar with what you're talking about then? People defend religion all the time based on false, positive stereotypes. Say something about Islam and watch people trip over themselves to repeat every cliche they have ever heard about it in defense.
What do you mean by "the time for civility is over?" Clearly that's unbiblical. The church should always strive to be civil, even when men of the church must do difficult things. Being civil isn't the same as being weak either. Peter & Paul walked right up to Caesar and gave him a piece of their mind (to shorten the story....) after enduring prison and torture. Don't forget who's on our side...
I agree we should be less "polite". Fire and brimstone needs to return. Dedicated, devoted Christianity needs to return. Giving up what you've got on Earth in order to gain what you have in Heaven needs to return. We're all kinda pussies, while Indian kids are beaten to death by their villages for being brave enough to be the only ones to preach the word.
I'm kind of confused by some of your questions and comments here. Are you saying I need to be catholic to share information I find while investigating and researching corruption?
The research of Sabbatai Zevi and Jacob Frank will speak for itself when you realize their efforts lead to the infiltration of the Catholic church and the Jesuits. Their beliefs are NOT compatible with christianity and their God is NOT the christian God.
The people that currently occupy and head the church are steering it away from its founding principles with malicious intent. Weaken the church at the same time you weaken the peoples moral compass through a degenerative society while weakening their men through feminism and "toxic masculinity". On top of that they have infiltrated media, entertainment, government, academia, etc all for the sake of propaganda, indoctrination, subversion, destabilizion, programming and destruction. This creates a domino effect in their favor. We are weakened while they are stronger and more emboldened. Even though we are the true majority, we are made to feel weak and insignificant. Just comply and capitulate since we don't want to make a scene.
You're right about not sounding very Jesusy in my tone. Jesus turned the other cheek and they still killed him. The bible also includes the old testament where it taught an eye for an eye and tooth for a tooth. When you are battling evil that hates you and wants you destroyed, you aren't going to win them over with love and kindness. You have to defeat them. When good men do nothing and evil is allowed to prevail, then that is their sin.
The shills that currently hold positions of power in our government that answer to their sponsors and not the people, have disrespected and desecrated their position. There is NO respect they are due, because they disrespected it themselves. they are treasonous enemies of liberty itself. They should be made uncomfortable, rebuked and ridiculed every time they are in public. I'm not calling for violence against them, but they should be made uncomfortable and know where they stand and we are NOT ok with it.
Christian's sitting back and allowing "do what though wilt" to take place in our society because they don't want to offend or appear bigoted, now find they have no ground left to give. You can only turn the other cheek for so along until the time comes for you to have to strike theirs back.
I'm just saying there are spiritual reasons for the position the Catholic Church is in as well. If you don't attend, you don't need to come up with a defense for it.
