Better a pagan than a dour Puritan hatemongering tyrant.

At least I get to have fun in my life.

Yes, it is. Go back to /pol/ and quit LARP'ing as Cotton Mather.

Let me reiterate, I'd rather be in Hell with Plato, Virgil, and Marcus Aurelius than in Heaven with Jack Chick, Fred Phelps, and Cotton Mather.

>nothing wrong

>>2265557
Puritans weren't kicked out of England, they left because of religious persecution. They set out to create their own communities, and also ended up persecuting others (Quakers, etc). Founding fathers were in favor of religious freedom.

So? we put men in jail for having consented sex with girls under a certain arbitrary age.

>>So? we put men in jail for having consented sex with girls under a certain arbitrary age.
You do realize that this is just a pitiful dodge yeah? "You do it too"! Isn't actually an effective argument.

>>2265668
You're right. They were discriminated against.

...and a good thing too. Cromwell boot lickers.

>>2265701
Not really. Throwing stones when you live in a greenhouse is dumb.

I don't know how someone in 1600s celebrates Christmas, but if it's anything like the hedonistic parties today where casual sex occurs, then they deserved to be lynched.

So why do you insert words into scripture?

Daily reminder that Christ is the only mediator between man and God, and that even the idea of an infallible human is heresy.

To read them.

>>2265852
Luther inserted alone at the start of Romans, not Romans 3:28. The phrase "The just shall live by faith" appears in nearly every Pauline epistle, but Luther only inserted alone once. Luther also explicitly translated literarily, to make the bible sound like it was written in German.

Also, to rightly translate Romans 3:28 you have to describe the exclusivity of faith. It's the entire point of the passage.

Reminder that it is damnable heresy to promote the worship of bread

>>2265874
Is that why protestants removed scripture from the bible?

>>2265875
>Luther inserted alone at the start of Romans, not Romans 3:28.
wrong.

>>2265896
Did Nebuchadnezzar rule from Nineveh?

>>2265905
no u

>>2265913
Not an argument

>>2265925
Yes it is, because Judith 1:1 says he did. Only problem is he never set foot in Nineveh.

>>2265933
Why did Luther remove 7 books from scripture?

>>2265933
Martin Luther removed these 7 books of the Old Testament: Tobit, Judith, 1st & 2nd Maccabees, Wisdom, Sirach & Baruch. I understand he wanted to remove James & Revelation also.

>>2265948
They never were scripture
>>2265954
See above. Also did Nebuchadnezzar rule from Nineveh?
>I understand he wanted to remove James & Revelation also
He changed his mind.

>>2265959
>They never were scripture
Why did he remove the books though?

>>2265963
Hi Malaysian, it's been a while

>>2265965

>>2265436
>The Puritans were literally the ISIS of the 1600's.
The English Puritans were, which is why marrying politics with religion is a bad idea in any civilization

Then that makes the puritans which went to America the Syrian refugees fleeing to a land where people aren't slaughtering each other in the name of religion

>>2265975
>why marrying politics with religion is a bad idea in any civilization
So I guess every civilization before the French and American revolutions were in the wrong, huh?

>>2265971
Did Nebuchadnezzar rule from Nineveh? A simple yes or no will do.

>>2265436
>The Puritans were literally the ISIS of the 1600's.

Is that supposed to be a bad thing? ISIS is badass as fuck.

>>2265982
>moving the goalposts fallacy
Why did Luther removed 7 books from his version of the Bible?

>>2265988
Did Nebuchadnezzar rule from Nineveh?

>>2265997
So you don't have an answer?

>>2265997
So one historical error in Judith warrants removing 7 books from Biblical canon?

>>2266012
>one historical error
That's sufficient to prove it's not inspired. Also, that's not the only error in Judith, it's full of them. If I recall correctly it says the temple was rebuilt over a hundred years before it was destroyed.

>>2266027
What about the other historical errors riddled in the old testament?

>>2266027
So what about the books that aren't Judith? Why'd he remove Maccabees and wisdom?

>>2266039
this. it's all horseshit

>>2266043
He didn't "remove" anything, those books were never there
>>2266039
There are none.

>>2266051
>He didn't "remove" anything, those books were never there
They were there from the beginning of Christianity. Your just making stuff up.

>>2266054
They knew they existed, no one thought they were scripture until over a hundred years after our Lord's death.

>>2265528
>>Salem Witch Trials
Those were actual witches tho

>>2265436
How evil do you have to be in order to hate Puritans?

>>2266012

Judith? wtf is "Judith"?

>>2266089
Not true. All discussions of them remark that Christians considered them Canon. They appeared in the Greek Vulgate, which was the scripture used by Christians.

>>2266106
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Book_of_Judith

>>2266089
The Qumran community considered them scripture.
Checkmate extremists

Luther didn't remove anything he just considered them secondary and actually thought more highly of them than the spurious books of the NT.
It's not like Luther coined the term Apocrypha.

>>2266170
He removed them from biblical canon for partisan reasons.

>>2265436
So what did they do that makes them bad in your opinion

>>2265528
>>Massacre of Native Americans

>>2265646
How? Because you aren't allowed to dress in a fursuit and rim your pozzed bf?

Puritans are the best thing to ever grace God's green earth and no amount of angry fedoras, LARPers, or SJWs are going to change that.

I mean, I'm not saying Schizos are always fun to be around, but they tend to have the highest IQs around.

>>2265880
This. The Puritans were never persecuted. It makes for a better narrative for children, it never happened. They were just mad that they couldn't impose their own religion on everyone else in England, so they left to form a community where they could.

>>2266094
There are no actual witches. Just deluded people.

protestants didn't do anything that any other group of people wouldn't have done in their situation. The Spanish were catholics and they were waaaaay worse

>>2268940
It's because you have different morals. The age of marriage for millenia for women was the onset of menarchy. Then it was changed in the west for god knows what reason. Christmas with it's pagan trees and santa klaus are not biblical nor apostolic traditions and the puritans rightly associated Christmas with saturnalia. You believe marrying a woman below the arbitrary age of 18 is "statutory rape" and that Christmas is totally Christian. It's not clear why you believe these things. My guess is because your society does.
