catholicism is but the cult of cybele(queen of heaven)
Jeremiah 7:18: The children gather wood, the fathers light the fire, and the women knead the dough and make cakes of bread for the Queen of Heaven. They pour out drink offerings to other gods to provoke me to anger.
The Romans claimed descent from Trojan Aeneas and Venus(Isis).
Romans gained Pergamon in Asia Minor where Troy once stood
not through war, but through a will on the Death of Attalus III.
This is where Caesar gained the right to be declared a god as Pontifex Maximus. The origin of this privileged stems from Babylonian/Chaldean mysteries. not Christianity.
Roman Catholicism just makes Christianity palatable to pagans and unifies an empire politically as the Roman state was sacrosanct.
meming that you're the one true church through peter is just advertising. And killing off all competitor christian sects like Arians and Nontrinitarians is just good business.

No - Catholicism is treason against the Emperor and the gods. Perhaps the Roman Emperors willing to adopt this did not look carefully enough at the level of treason in the Jewish documents, or perhaps too many had already converted to Judaism by the time they did look. Roman aristocrats were pretty materialistic by the 3rd century anyway and had little respect for the gods (nearly every other Emperor between 70 AD and 300 AD was assassinated by power hungry upper class) so perhaps it simply didn't really matter to them as long as it fulfilled their personal worldly ambitions.
By contrast, assassinations of Egyptian Pharaohs were extremely rare for 1000's of years. Perhaps due to inferior language skills leading to fewer demagogues fomenting treason?
Either way, the Church is an enemy of God, always has been, and always will be.

Catholicism WAS Roman, after the Frankish and Anglo-Saxon conquests, it became a tool used for promoting Germanic Imperialism, before them the churchES were Orthodox and Autocephalic and pro-Roman,
Then the Anglo-Saxons promoted an universalist church by pledging allegiance to Gregory the "Great", while the Franks systematically replaced Roman bishops with Germanic ones.

Catholicism is Romanism in the same way Orthodoxy is. So - what's the point? Both claim to carry "the right Truth" and consider each other as succesors of West and East Rome respectively. So it's only fair to say that Christianity is Romanism, with Protestantism being only a cultural Romanism which focuses on the individual and not on creating and maintaining states and societies by any means neccesary. OP thinks he found somethimg groundbreaking when in fact it's clear as daylight it isn't. Or as we say in Serbia:"Good morning Columbus from the corner of America!".

wrong.

The easiest way to show this is that both the emperor and the pope had the same exact title: Pontifex Maximus. Further, both had a senate/college of cardinals, and both had a praetorian guard.
Finally, what Catholics do today is exactly what pagans did in the time of the Tower of Babel:
Put ashes on their foreheads in mourning; Fast for 40 days; Celebrate the resurrection of the son at Ishtar/Easter.
It's exactly what Babylon did, and it has absolutely nothing to do with Christianity. Constantine baptized tens of thousands of pagans and said they were now "christians", with absolutely no belief system or confession of faith whatsoever. And those pagans merely brought all of their pagan idolatry to what is now Romanism idolatry.
And yes, Catholics, it's idolatry even when you do it.

>Also, it's amazing how historically illiterate protestants are.
You have no idea that these customs come from Babylon.
Semiramis lost her son, presumed dead. Semiramis is the "Queen of Heaven" mentioned in the bible as a hostile and false god. She is also called the "Mother of God". You call her Mary, but her name remains Semiramis.
She went into mourning. She fasted for 40 days. After 40 days, her son Tammuz rose from the dead, and she instigated a celebration called Ishtar.
That's what you do, every year, for Lent. It's just Ishtar is now called Easter.

Frankly Vatican II proved Catholicism is just whatever it needs to be to stay relevant.
Everything were saying is just old news made new.

they labelled Tammuz as Nimrod in one of those; Nimrod is the Sun God in Babylonian pagan mythos, just as Constantine worshiped Sol Invictus, and was a donor to the temple of Apollo, the sun god, just like his father was.

The gift of tongues was clearly given to the early church as a sign of salvation.
For you to mock it means you are on the outside, trying to look in.
Your "traditions of men" are anathema to the holy God.

>Romans transformed a jumbled up Semitic cult
yea that's the point, pagans perverted the true Christianity with their on paganism to make it palatable therefore Catholicism isn't Christianity. Advocating Judaism isn't an argument. And your readiness to do so proves that people like you aren't really Christians.
not an argument against why catholicism is still paganism

Catholicism isn't Christianity yet is responsible for killing Christians
also whore of babylon
And the woman was dressed in purple and scarlet, and adorned with gold and precious stones and pearls. She held in her hand a golden cup full of abominations and the impurities of her sexual immorality. 5On her forehead a mysterious name was written: Babylon the Great, the mother of prostitutes and of the abominations of the earth. 6I could see that the woman was drunk with the blood of the saints and of the witnesses for Jesus. And I was greatly astonished at the sight of her.…

Hard to say because the Catholics killed them al or forced converted them and burned books over centuries.
My guess is the nontrinitarians or aryans.
For all we know Christendom had a different meaning outside the context of Judaism long before the Julian Calendar.
