where did the "catholic church worships satan" meme come from? do protties really think everybody was worshiping satan until Luther came along?
>inb4 muh idols if you ask me it's more likely that butthurt protties infiltrated the church, put idols everywhere, and then used that as a justification to hate catholics
It's because they literally and unironically worship Satan, whom they call "Jehovah".
Brayden Russell
Masonic slander.
Elijah Gray
Its because Luther failed to realize that dividing the church in the way he did was a slippery slope and would lead to shit like Mormonism and Jevohas Witnesses.
Easton Ward
Isaiah 14:12: “How you have fallen from heaven, O morning star, son of the dawn! You have been cast down to the earth, you who once laid low the nations!” (NIV). The KJV and NKJV both translate “morning star” as “Lucifer, son of the morning.” It is clear from the rest of the passage that Isaiah is referring to Satan’s fall from heaven (Luke 10:18). So in this case, the morning star refers to Satan.
Revelation 22:16, Jesus unmistakably identifies Himself as the morning star.
No big deal right? Just a universal symbol taken out of context yes? Nope, I am sure you can see why. Or should I explain?
Caleb Long
hope you realize that jehova is just a latin translation of the word yeshua
Alexander Ross
the NIV is trash but I hope you realize the church has more translations than the NIV
you do realize the KJV didn't exist when Luther was around right
Wyatt Brown
WRONG

So I was suppose to assume that "Catholics worship Satan" Is only coming from protestant faiths? Seems about right.

Also I don't think they are worshipping Satan just an abstract watered down version of Jesus. (Satan)
Asher Thompson
what the fuck is that shit
Aaron Campbell
Butthurt prods.
The Catholic Church, even of the late Middle Ages, was nowhere near as corrupt as heretics like to make out, it was far from perfect, but the Reformation only went as far as it did because of opportunistic princes. The fact that some of these people would even entertain the idea that Catholicism is some kind of veiled Satanic cult goes to show the calibre of autism we're dealing with.

anyways I hope you realize that's it has nothing to do with the physical human being jews but the religion they preach
jews primarily follow the talmud and the talmud is the same shit the pharisees were spewing, rabinnacal judaism is a direct descent of phariscial judaism

With iron gall are made thine words, on a press, by no quill of papist monk
Give us this day our daily division of pronouns between thy and you, and forgive us for considering Douay-Rheims, as we forgive the papists for denying Henry his wife
And lead us not into the temptations of non-textus-receptus translations, but deliver us from Vulgate. For yours are the cords and the vellum and the square set type of gutenberg, forever

Yes, that's the true meaning of the word.
Romanism has bastardized the word to mean "Roman Catholic only".

Benjamin Campbell

Tyler Adams
yes, keep on droning about you "pray for each other meme". its clever sophistry to try to disguise bald idolatry. You think people who leave offerings at shrines, build elaborate houses for said statues and relics and "holy places," are imagining that they're "praying for each other"? Fucking hell they aren't; it's blatant supplication to a saint to they can mediate with sky daddy to shower them good boy and girl points.
Tyler Nguyen
furthermore, it also goes against the fact that a lot of these so-called local "saints" are just historical continuation of local pagan practices and deities except with sanction from ecclesiastical authority so as to say "y-y-ou guys are christians now! your pagan nature gods were good christ-cu-stians all along!

It comes from Luther Martinez who went about it daily after 1521 when he suddenly stopped supporting the pope and went on calling the mass sacrilege and an abomination and other teachings pagan.

I don't get this sectarian bullshit among Christians. At the end of the day you all eat cows so you are pretty fucked in the next life.
Camden Green
When Luther was calling the papacy the antichrist, what he meant was that the church was being influenced by Satan to support non-scriptual doctrines, like indulgences and papal infallibility. Masonic propaganda in the late 1800s purportedly found documents showing the Catholics worship Satan. It is now considered a hoax.
Oliver Martinez

Ryan Reyes
I don't know, where did the monotheism meme come from? Was animal worship not good enough? Some animals are capable of pretty incredible things. If people need to worship something, may as well have been that. Did humanoid gods become a thing because people felt like their gods should reflect their feelings of superiority to other animals? And then it turned into a "my god can beat up your god" and "see! My god is so awesome I only need one!" Which lead to the millennia long chimp out of Judaism? Who knows. Why not just make up your own god to worship? It's all the same shit

Romans 1 For since the creation of the world His invisible attributes are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even His eternal power and Godhead, so that they are without excuse, because, although they knew God, they did not glorify Him as God, nor were thankful, but became futile in their thoughts, and their foolish hearts were darkened. Professing to be wise, they became fools, and changed the glory of the incorruptible God into an image made like corruptible man—and birds and four-footed animals and creeping things.
Owen Price
>where did the "catholic church worships satan" meme come from? Its enemies. Most recently, protestant autism.
Mason Hall
so why doesnt the catholic church officially rebuke all the satanic accusations claims them?
Ryder James
You're basically trying to define a word by using itself. The question was why did people decide to start worshipping a humanoid god/gods at all. Coming up with an explanation after the fact is pretty easy
Charles Hernandez
You asked more than one question
Joseph Murphy
>so why doesnt the catholic church officially rebuke all the satanic accusations claims them? They aren't worth addressing. It would be like yelling "I am not a faggot" in the middle of the street because some 12 year old called you one on CoD. The only thing that would accomplish would be being remembered as the guy who felt the need to officialy make it known that he wasn't a faggot because the allegation was apparrently significant enough to warrant it.
Austin Hall
yeah but they do have a point on some stuff like why would you pray to mary or the saints when they are just humans
what is the churches actual response to that
and what is the actual churches response to transubstantiation, they didn't practice that shit officially till 1100 ad

Carter Robinson
Everybody's afraid of Bavarians, though.
Jose Rivera
Fair enough. But now it's just the one and I'm genuinely curious. At least animals make sense. You can see them and it requires very little imagination. Just saying "well, you see his power in all things" seems rather abstract, so I wonder why it eventually prevailed as the model for religious beliefs
Logan Powell
Because they have cardinals within the Vatican offering sacrifices to satan.
Because they had an entire ceremony in the 1960's dedicating the Vatican to the devil.
Because they built an enormous serpent head for the pope to hold his audiences in.
Because the people who follow the pope are delusional.
Daniel Hill
I'm saying your worship of animals is already in the bible, and nothing new.
