Who has those?
Most Conservatives are just as corrupt as Liberals
Wind + Dirt + Rain
Don't bother...OP is a mentally ill Troll...
Who?
There isn't any scholarship to back up your statements. And your 1st assertion is a logical falacy. (It's like saying since we say Hell in English we actually mean Norse Hel. Or that Good Friday actually means Good Freya's Day because Christianity is actually Norse)
Everything you just said ... was wrong...
No wonder the Vatican loves him!
Are you off your meds or something bro? Do you know the Catholic Nun that said that quote? If anyone is satanic its probably the person that sounds like they have an ACTUAL demon in them. Go to church, hypocrite.
You know thats a Donald Trump quote,right smart guy?
Just get the shots. They work!
Galatians 2:16 "a person [Christian] is not justified [going to heaven] by the works of the law [Judaism] but through faith [John 5:24] in Jesus Christ"
Ones raising a family in such times.
He bows to their power, they bow to his.
It's essentially impossible to have a religion centered on a man that said God sent him to correct his chosen people embrace the remnants of that corrupted faith...
The most antisemitic thing you can do is keep a Jew from Jesus!
And thus we have both Rabinic and Pagan worship inside St P n Ps... 😔
So is CCC 839 and 840 NOT the "teachings of the Catholic Church"???
It seems like you are conflating YOUR belief with the official catechism of the Church, because regardless of theological error, this IS the position of Catholicism.
I mean... if by "many Catholics" you mean the entirety of the Church after Vatican I and II then yeah, they 180ed their 2000 year old stance....
They want order followers...
Yes, there are many who want to connect Christianity to something Pagan, like the OP. Historical record is clear that the December festival of note was Saturnalia and that was over long b4 the 25th and as noted, the Emperor was pushing BACK against already existing Christian celebrations when he essentially fabricated his own 'Pagan Christmas."
I wonder if praying or bowing or singing means Christians are Pagan... cuz well... Pagans bowed and sung and prayed...😆.
But is there not a connection between what is written in the bible and the dating?
We know the Annunciation is celebrated on March 24th, and they just added 9 months flat to arrive at Dec 24th.
We know John the Baptists Birthday is celebrated on June 24th and Mary visited Elizabeth on the day of the Annunciation and Elizabeth was said to be exactly 6 months pregnant.
Also, the book of Chronicles talks all about the 24 priestly divisions and when each would serve based on the lunisolar calandar. Zacharias is talking with Gabriel in the temple about Elizabeth being able to have a baby 9 months before June 24th...
Zacharias would have been in charge of Sukkot in 2 BC and I am fairly certain in you check the lunisolar calandar, Sukkot started on Sep 24th in 2BC.
Sol Invictus was a Pagan RESPONSE to Christmas. The 24th was a date set almost immediately after the life of Christ.
If all this sophistry is true, WHY does the feast of Sol Invictus not pop up untill Christianity is on the rise in Rome, and COMPLETELY dissappear after Christianity is decriminalized in the Empire?
The date comes from the Bible and an assumed 9 month gestational period, thats all.
Chesterton thought so... region locked capitalism!
