Sure. The one universal, holy and apostolic Church is both a divine and a human, a mystical and a physical historical institution (not an abstraction), established by our Lord Jesus Christ, the Second person of the Godhead, here on Earth, following the messianic prophecies of the OT. Christ appointed His apostles as the leaders of His Church and sent the Holy Spirit upon them at Pentecost (around 33AD). The Church is the living Body of Christ in which all believers are joined and participate in the uncreated divine grace through the sacraments (like baptism, chrismation, eucharist, matrimony).
Thus Church's authority comes from the apostles who pass the Holy Spirit through laying of hands to their successors - the bishops (as seen in Acts). This apostolic succession continues uninterrupted to this day and forms a living tradition from Christ to the bishops and clergy of today. The Church structure is decentralized and synodal and it's headed by Christ and not any particular bishop (as papalists believe).
The Holy Scripture itself is a part of that tradition as is its correct interpretation (because no text interprets itself, but is understood through a paradigm). The totality of the tradition is the deposit of God's revelation to His people - the Christians. The Church tradition is also a continuation of the OT hebrew covenantal tradition of Abraham.
That's demonstrably false. The opinions of people have changed dramatically in the past decades. As late as the 90's the majority saw homosexuality as sexual deviancy and as unacceptable. People have been reeducated - not everyone but normies were and many millenials and zoomers have been indoctrinated into being leftist activists via education and culture.
You mean homosexuality and degeneracy isn't promoted in society as part of an agenda and the acceptance of it was totally organic outburst of love and tolerance in society? Are you pro-skittles because they can't have babies?
Strawmen galore. I can tell you come from a Protestant background and hold the Protestant presuppositions. Makes sense that you became gnostic new ager.
That's still nothing compared to the thousands of martyrs of the early Church when the Roman emperors prosecuted Christians. All the apostles were martyred except John.
But yes, libs and commies parrot enlightenment propaganda drummed up by degenerate freemasons like Rabelais, Voltaire and Jean-Jaque Roseau. The whole "dark ages" narrative and how much more enlightened the greek and roman pagans were. The Renaissance was fake and gay too (as if the name itself doesn't sound gay enough).
((Bible scholars))
The Church is the ultimate authority on what texts are canonical. If you reject that authority, then you're not Christian and you reject everything about the faith, including the rest of the Bible because it's a package deal. This means you're operating under a non-Christian worldview where authority is placed elsewhere (like whatever some secularists or new agers think).
I can use logical arguments to prove the Triune God. Christianity never appeals to blind faith - this is your own retarded idea about it. Do you realize that the Roman empire became Christian and the early Church Fathers were philosophers steeped in the greek tradition? You don't even know how much you don't know.
Muh interpretation.
Protestants should take note - this is where Sola Scriptura can lead to.
Disagreeing = cognitive dissonance
Already called you out on that.
The quote doesn't match the claim you made. It's as simple as that. No amount of framing and sperging can change objective truth.
I've proven that the quote you provided doesn't support your conclusion in the post. Then you sperged out. You conveniently premised not agreeing with you amounts to cognitive dissonance. Apparently pointing out you're wrong is cognitive dissonance in your world.
What do you mean? It will be name-changed to "TyrantCoin"? It will be deleted from existence? No, it still will be. Just controlled.
So they will change the system and also the name but it still will be BTC? If I change your essence and start calling you with another name, would you still be you? That's not how identity works.
So what about people who had all their devices snatched by the UK and EU for hate speech? Good luck with that!
And you think they won't confiscate your gold or make such transactions illegal? This literally happened in 1933. Cash is issued by the Fed so the moment they decide, you won't have access to it. I mean, if they decide to put us in camps we won't be able to use BTC also. That doesn't seem like a good argument.
Human history proves the opposite.
Do you come from a different timeline? When did the electrical grid collapse?
Bill gates also thinks that's why you should trust vaxxines. If you don't that must mean you're a Luddite anti science dummy bigot who hates progress and improvement and The New.
False equivalence and strawman.
Physical currency. Digital is good for destroying silly pro-digimoney arguments over vast distances in many countries, but sucky as a literal societal backbone. WALL-E taught you nothing.
Physical currency doesn't work in a world where people don't live physically. You're literally talking to a person on the other side of the Earth. Community should be physical and people should live in such closely-knit communities. But currency has nothing to do with this. The obsession western man has with money itself is misplaced - it's Mammon worship. The only thing that matters is that value is best stored and transferred between individuals and that's what BTC is about.
And create worse and unfixable (by humans) ones. How do you think anti Christ will set up his system?
He will use the technology of the day. Including media, transportation, the internet and electricity. Should we become luddites then? Speculating about the Antichrist won't change much. We're told he will come to rule the world in the end times so it will happen. What you need to worry about is not being deceived by him and staying within Christ's Church to be among the chosen ones.
0.00000001% as dangerous and 100% less usable for control than digimoney.
Dude, the banks and their owners are behind the current system and CBDC. I'd say their control is pretty tight and they're about to go digital making it even worse. BTC is the alternative to that but I'm fed up with making the distinction. Equivocating BTC and CBDC as "digimoney" is stupid. Things can be both similar and different at the same time.
Banks didn't use advanced tech til mid or late 1900s.
It doesn't matter. The point was that banks consolidated too much power via control of the money, leading them to control all aspects of society. It was a crucial mistake to give them that power.
Personal attack and deflection - always the sign of a good-faith actor.
The whole concept of Neanderthal presupposes evolutionism. I don't have a problem with large animals existing prior to the flood but I wouldn't call them dinosaurs because that term is borrowed from worldviews that contradict the Christian narrative.
So the claim actually is that jews were 65-75% of the total Portuguese mercantile community while being 10% of the population (btw there was never that many jews in Portugal, this is made up).
And from this you get to "Jews owned 75% of the slaves". You don't see a problem in this?
Didn't say otherwise. And it CAN be, if the DS/TPTB tries.
Then it will stop being BTC.
Correct. Digital is good, because we can destroy and disprove your belief that "phantom 0s and 1s are so great!" using digital things. CURRENCY, however, being digital, means it can be EMPed.
One would have a much harder time corrupting the BTC blockchain that's made of 0's and 1's than corrupting the physical logs of any central bank. As I already said, EMPs and shutdowns affect only the physical server. But BTC doesn't operate on a centralized infrastructure. The network has thousands of nodes all over the world and any peer can download the blockchain and create such a node. The blockchain itself is a 600gb long hash that exists separate from the internet.
If you mean EMPs nuking the whole internet and electrical system, then no currency would matter at all. How much gold did you see being traded in The Walking Dead? That's what the world will look like if the electrical grid is destroyed.
Just up and admit that physical is superior.
We're not living in the same world as 100 years ago. In our world things are digital. If physical is superior, wtf are you doing here on an online forum instead of the park or in a bar somewhere discussing this? Digital currency can solve many problems that physical currency has had throughout history. This is the idea behind BTC. Did you know banks were created solely because gold was dangerous to transport long distance? In a BTC-centered system there would no longer be any need of banks.
If you have a "disease" gene, don't you owe it to society not to propagate that gene?
No, because we're not in a position to decide who should propagate. We were not given a mandate to judge that by God. Eugenics is playing God. This leads straight to Brave New World lab-grown caste system society ran by a eugenicist technocratic elite.
God has commanded us to be fruitful and multiply. Why I'm not surprised this rabbi doesn't give a shit about the Torah and is in fact a naturalist and eugenicist instead? Almost as if it was the jews who pushed forward this godless "scientific theory".
I'm sure you can, monkeyboy.
That's CBDC which is the continuation of the current central banking fiat system.
BTC is not CBDC. Is that a hard concept? Something being digital doesn't make it inherently bad. This is some weird form of gnosticism for physicalists.
You're supposed to do citations, not dump me a 3 volume book as if I can read it and verify it now.
The current fiat system is the NWO's system and it's already mostly digital, genius. And it's being transitioned to a fully digital fiat system - CBDC. I already told you 10% of payments are done in cash. Unless you can convince millions of people they should be using cash and not their cards and phones, you'd better come up with an alternative. You won't, because alternatives are decentralized cryptocurrencies which you and other luddites consider evil because they're digital (all this while being hooked to the totally physical DARPANET 24/7 - the irony).
The medium is not important. Mining here is used to describe the concept which is the thing that's valuable (the work put into obtaining the thing).
That's like saying the internet is worse than a public library because it's digital.
People can be really dumb when they try so hard not to understand basic concepts.
Ok, boomer. Is information valuable? Can you hold it?
You're both arguing based on physicalism. But value is a metaphysical category assigned to objects by people or God. Your mind, free will and soul are the most valuable things you have but you can't hold any of them.
Jews were about 1% of the population back then. The other figures seem to be totally made up.
Could you be less obvious of a troll?
