In 1492, Chemor, Chief Rabbi of Spain, wrote to the Grand Sanhedrin, which had its seat in Constantinople, for advice when a Spanish law threatened expulsion. This was the reply:
“Beloved brethren in Moses, we have received your letter in which you tell us of the anxieties and misfortunes which you are enduring. We are pierced by as great pain to hear it as yourselves. The advice of the Grand Satraps and the Rabbis is the following:
As for what you say that the King of Spain obliges you to become Christians: do it, since you cannot do otherwise.
As for what you say about the command to despoil you of your property: make your sons merchants that they may despoil, little by little, the Christians of theirs.
As for what you say about making attempts on your lives: make your sons doctors and apothecaries, that they may take away Christians’ lives.
As for what you say of their destroying your synagogues: make your sons canons and clerics in order that they may destroy their churches.
As for the other vexations you complain of: arrange that your sons become advocates and lawyers, and see that they always mix in affairs of state, that by putting Christians under your yoke you may dominate the world and be avenged on them.
Do not swerve from this order that we give you, because you will find by experience that, humiliated as you are, you will reach the actuality of power.
~ Prince of the Jews of Constantinople.”
Catholicism does not teach the true gospel message. It teaches Roman traditions. Catholics get saved in spite of their church, not because of it directly.
Nah, dude, you started it when you started that "true Gospel" stuff. As if you have some special insight into Christ that 40,000+ Protestant denominations out there say they have that the other 39,999 are missing.
You're a hypocrite. It's on you, not me, to explain your inconsistencies.
Well good thing I never claimed that 1 out of 40,000 denominations preaches the true gospel. I said the Catholic Church does not, which is demonstrable. They make up their own stories to replace Jesus with Mary as well as with a Pope's human authority. Worse yet they have obscene amounts of blood on their hands, including the blood of many martyrs.
Do you propose that you can do this and still claim to preach the true gospel of Christ?
You say "denomination wars are dumb", you also claim to weigh in on the discussion of the gospel. But in previous conversations with you, I recall you've already stated you reject the Bible (and thus the gospel), so the only irony here is you claiming to have any authority in this arena.
Well, it's a bad thing, then, that 40,000 denominations claim to preach the "true Gospel". This, of course, negates everything else you wrote before that, and likely after this, which I didn't bother to read.

There's snowballs in hell at the moment, but I suppose I'm agreeing with you here.

Yeah, I’ll never remember that. Fucking hell, they need to be shut down.
She went from secular Judaism to Catholic; it's a lateral move.

Go ahead, and keep supporting Hindu pagans for president and telling me what's the "true Gospel" and what's not.
If you've ever voted for a candidate you've supported Satanists and Freemasons by your logic. If you want to apply your logic consistently.
But having ever voted has nothing to do with knowing or preaching the gospel message of salvation.
Nice way of eliding the point. You have a plank in your eye you need to remove first, before you worry about the mote in mine.
Wait but how is it a mote if it is the same thing? This seems like projection, since you started the judgement and I revealed your hypocrisy.
Also how does scripture say that preferring a presidential candidate is a sin? Please explain.

Bottom line, denomination wars are dumb.

They deserve a real holocaust.
