In distinguishing the differing factions of Catholicism, I am discriminating and prejudiced? Apparently, the Independent Churches have an equally rich array of diverse sects too.
What an open discussion on religion, this is.
This is not honest. Some weird fucking Germans? That's not even Catholic, that's like neo-Lutheran.MagsJ wrote:List of independent Catholic denominations: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_i ... ominations
This is a list of independent Catholic denominations which identify themselves as being within Old Catholicism or other independent Catholic traditions originating in Europe having split from the Catholic Church in the 1870s, which was originally ultrajectine in doctrine.
You just said, by the way, that since Luther and Calvin split from the Vatican, they no longer were Catholic. So these "alternate Catholic denominations" you quote...? Both Luther and Calvin maintained the Catholic label until well after they had been excommunicated.
It’s called history, Pedro.. don’t accept it, if it’s too much for you to bear..
Which church, I'm actually curious now.MagsJ wrote:All the local Irish families sent their children to that church and adjoining school.
I’d rather not disclose that..
MagsJ wrote:What does it mean to be Irish Catholic?
Yeah, like I have been saying, it only means a Catholic, aka Roman Catholic, from Ireland. There is however an extremely rich tradition in Irish Catholicism, dating back to the days when Catholicism wasn't even as big as it became. Very far back. But yes, still incontrovertibly, Pope subservient, Vatican affiliated, Roman Catholics.
I know.. all Irish Catholics, are Roman Catholic.
I can go back and get the quote if you want. You clearly and explicitly said that Catholics were not ChristiansMagsJ wrote:I said that not all Catholics are Roman Catholics, and they aren’t.
I don’t think that many RCs can relate with Christianity, but that is our problem, not yours..
