I don't know who are upvoting me, but I do thank them for their support.

Here are the facts:

1. You DID NOT go to me privately when you misinterpreted my post(s) to go against Christian teaching. Instead you KVETCHED all over c/Conspiracies, and you don't even believe that Christ established a Church to go to, so you are NOT even following Matthew 18:15-17 yourself, you brain-dead HYPOCRITE!

2. Geez... I sure hope you never called you own dad "father" or else you are clearly breaking the rule of Matthew 23:9... (rolls eyes)

Or, you know, perhaps Jesus was saying that there is only one HEAVENLY Father - God the Father - and wasn't saying that you couldn't literally call your own dad "father". And this is why you need a Church to interpret Scripture - because low IQ MORONS like Neo1 will interpret Scripture in stupid ways.

3. You're blind to your OWN HYPOCRISY and STUPIDITY. You call me a spammer, and yet you SPAM c/Conspiracies about me. You say you're a "Biblical-only Christian" and yet quote Jesus talking about the Church. YOU ARE THE BLIND LEADING THE BLIND. And YOU are exactly WHY Jesus founded a Church to interpret the Bible because you are sooo STUPID and HYPOCRITICAL that you are a DANGER to yourself and others!

I'm not watching your stupid, like Seventh Day Adventist-produced, videos. They just make up a bunch up BS about Catholics because they are LIARS, like YOU.

I don't go against real Christianity. I just go against your false interpretation of Christianity. You are a heretic and schismatic, so your opinion means squat.

And you're a hypocrite too, since you copied and pasted this response...

I am in the Church that Jesus Christ founded. You're the one that rejects His Church.

September 8th is the date the Catholic Church celebrates Mary's birthday because it's exactly 9 months after the Church celebrates the Immaculate Conception on December 8th. The fact is we really don't know when her birthday is, so the Church set a date aside to celebrate it.

That's the thing... consistency with pre-established Scripture IS MOST DEFINITELY a requirement for the teaching of a Pope to be infallible. If the Pope BLATANTLY contradicts Scripture in his Magisterium, then we are, again, obliged to DISREGARD his teaching.

The fact of the matter is that the Pope's authority is pretty limited. He is bound by Scripture, Tradition (the verbal and written beliefs that Catholics have held for 2000 years), and the Magisterium of previous Popes. IF HE CONTRADICTS THOSE, THEN WE CANNOT ASSENT.

However, IF HE DOESN'T CONTRADICT THOSE AND HE OFFICIALLY TEACHES A MATTER OF FAITH AND MORALS CONSISTENT WITH THOSE, THEN WE MUST ASSENT.

Understand?

So Popes actually have a very narrow scope of authority. Their primary purpose is to govern the Church and secondly to decide matters of disagreement amongst the Faithful, and they are BOUND to Scripture, Tradition, and Magisterium themselves when doing the latter.

u/Neo1 you know I am a Catholic... What sect of Christianity are you?

I just reread everything in our conversation. I never "dodged" your questions. I answered them. I just answered them in a way that didn't fit your misconception on the authority of the Pope, and you referred to it as a "loophole" because you are anti-Catholic and frankly just want to argue instead of listen. Again, yes we can disagree with the Pope if he publicly tells the Jewish Mainstream Media his "politically correct" opinions on things. Moreover, if he misrepresents the Faith (and the current Pope has done this multiple times, unfortunately) we can publicly rebuke him for doing that as well, and of course, disobey following him in his error. What we as Catholics CANNOT do is disobey the Pope when he officially teaches a matter of Faith and morals that is CONSISTENT with known Catholic teaching.

Lol! "because it doesn't exist"... You said it yourself... As a Catholic I am not bound to assent to Magisterium that doesn't exist. Thanks! God bless!

Can you show me Magisterial teaching where he made it clear that the faithful are bound to receive the vaccine under pain of sin?

Yes, we can freely disagree and ignore if it's not Church teaching. We can consider his opinions, and even give them due respect as head of the Faith, but we don't have to assent if it's not Magisterial teaching. He doesn't even disagree with this. Pope Francis has never formally censured Catholic lay people for not taking the vaccine. He personally endorses it but has left it open to people to choose themselves. And many faithful Catholics I know, myself included, choose not to vaccinate.

No, that's not the teaching. The teaching is that the Pope is infallible when he is solemnly declaring and defining an issue of Faith or morality in an official Magisterial document. This rarely happens. So all those airplane and press interviews where Pope Francis gives his opinion on vaccinations... None of this is binding on the faithful. There is no official Church teaching whatsoever on vaccines. As for migration, that's a bit different, as migration itself is a natural right (Jesus, Mary, and Joseph migrated to Egypt from Judea, for instance, to escape Jesus being murdered by Herod), but still, there is no Church teaching that promotes mass immigration (i.e. the Great Replacement).

That's heretical. The Bible clearly supports the Catholic teaching on the Virgin Mary:

Catholicism is STRONGLY anti-abortion. Virtually all pro-life movements are run by Catholics lol.

As for vaccines, lockdowns, race mixing, and mass immigration, the Church hasn't taught that those things are against the Faith, but it also hasn't taught those things must be upheld by the faithful either. Yes, certain people in the Church, unfortunately even the Pope and other bishops support these things, but that doesn't make it "Church teaching". It merely makes it their opinion...

So this is my only active account. I don't expect him, or people that agree with him, to believe me, but I am not manipulating votes. To me, the most simple explanation is that I have fans of my content on communities.win. My view numbers on my end show that too. I get considerable more views of my content when I post on communities.win then when I do not. Again, I don't expect my haters, including Neo, to believe me, but it's the truth. That's all I can say.

Lolwat?

I blocked him a couple weeks ago, so I don't know, don't care what his "demands" are... Sorry...

Thanks!

Recognizing patterns is just the first step. Figuring out why they are happening is the next step. If multiple theses can explain the patterns, then one must use more than pattern recognition alone to determine what thesis explains the pattern the best.

It's a conspiracy! :-O

LOL

My guess is that I just have a lot of dedicated fans here. And I appreciate them!
