Favorite pope and why
>>1217566
Pope Joan
>>1217566
The man was comedy gold
Absolutely none of them. They are nothing but dividers and vile criminals. The pope should've stayed locked up in the Vatican after 1871.
>>1217784
Unironically Francis.
>>1217566
That Pope who was an atheist.
>>1217943
Who
>>1217943
And that would be?
>>1217946
>eat shit and die.
Christian love just doesn't show up in Catholics. Hmm.... wonder why that is....
>>1217958
Because I gotta deal with heathens who prance around calling themselves "christians"
>>1217970
Ohhh, that's what we call an anti-pope.
>liking anti-popes who are just edgy faggots and not partying assholes
That's wrong.
>>1217972
Yes, it must be hard dealing with your priests, but I don't understand why you don't just leave.
>>1217958
Because "Christians" on 4chan are only Christians aesthetically. Meaning they like the "muh old fashion strict traditions" elements of Christianity. Why do you think everyone on here is a Catholic or Orthodox? "Muh old fashion anti-modernist traditions!" obviously. If you're a racist, nationalist, proud of your ancestors, believe humans aren't equal... you aren't a Christian. If you glorify wars and warfare past or present, you aren't a Christian. If you enjoy the idea of hanging blacks or fags, you aren't a Christian.
tldr: No one on /his/ or /pol/ is a Christian.
>>1218010
"No I am a Christian always have been"
Nice argument, bub.
>>1217972
Oh I'm sorry. Why don't you go back to sucking papal cock. Lord knows that the pope loves dangle power around that he isn't suppose to.
>>1217979
I think it was Boniface VIII, supposedly he said:
>There was no Jesus Christ and the Eucharist is just flour and water. Mary was no more a virgin than my own mother, and there is no more harm in adultery than in rubbing your hands together.
>>1218022
Are you trying to tell me I'm not? Oh I'm sorry, I actually do practice the faith. I mean I'm not sure about half the people here but I actually follow the Church and I got baptized and did the sacraments for the Church
>>1218024
Why you gotta be a fag anon?
>>1218028
>Look at me, I do a lot of rituals! And my parents were also Christian! That means I'm Christian, right?
>>1218028
I don't know you so of course I don't know. I'm just making the argument that the majority of self-proclaimed "Christians" on /his/ and /pol/ are only superficially Christians. Meaning they use the badge of old-fashioned Christianity in order to assert themselves as opposite of the modern left-wing American culture that they hate. They don't actually follow the belief of love, forgiveness, acceptance, selflessness, humility etc.
You may very well be a practicing Catholic, I don't know.
>>1217958
If you're Christian, you have no business being in a den of sin like 4chan. Half the boards are dedicated to porn for God's sake.
>>1218053
Yeah, it does. I don't know why you gotta be anal about it.
>>1218056
Jesus said to hang out around the sick though.
>>1218066
Jesus said to make friends with the sinful and non-believers, so long as they do not influence you or take you away from God in any way.
>>1218066
Whilst that is true, you're not going to convert anybody on 4chan. And regardless, you're supposed to hang with the sinners to a point. You don't fellow them into a strip-club or topless bar.
>>1218055
It's mostly on /pol/, hell I got caught up in the Deus Vult posting until an Italian said that Catholics in America are idiots, so then I stopped doing shit like that because yeah, it does look stupid the way were shitposting.
>>1218059
The catholic church teaches sacraments to be a part of saving grace but these are nothing more than man made traditions foreign to the Bible.
>>1218092
Oh man, I didn't know following the bible to the fucking T. was always a thing, and like, not a man-mad idea made by Martin "literally autism" Luther.
>>1218079
I understand it. They want a symbol or belief system for conservative and racist whites on "our" section of the internet to unite under to simplify things. Christianity just isn't that symbol, it doesn't work.
>>1218066
Anon, this is a website where the standard suffix for any fan of something is "fag" (i.e. Supermanfags), faggot is the loving nickname for the site's creator and a large amount of images posted is porn. This really isn't the best place for a Christian to hang out, generalization or no.
>>1218059
Maybe because
>Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven.
or maybe
>For every tree is known by his own fruit.
or perhaps
>If any man among you seem to be religious, and bridleth not his tongue, but deceiveth his own heart, this man's religion is vain.
>>1218109
No, I get it. Deus Vult and we shall retake the Holy Land and the Catholics who are attacked in ISIS territory shall be venerated for being Martyrs.
>>1218117
And?
>>1218149
And, it takes a lot more than rituals and birth to be Christian. But at this point I'm assuming you're a roleplaying fedora, because even Catholics know this shit and try to avoid the sin of pride.
Pope Urban II and i think you know why.
>>1218179
But I'm not being prideful you dunce, you asked my proof and you got my proof.
>>1218222
What proof? No one even so much as mentioned proof. Certainly I never asked for any. Are you all right?
>>1218251
>Certainly I never asked for any
You fucking sit here and accuse people here of not being Christians and I told you that I am one, that is the proof.
>>1218261
Okay buddy, sure thing.
>>1218289
You don't believe me?
