Protip: Most people don't read the basic scripture for their religion themselves, and if they do, they're mostly likely illiterate anyway and misinterpret what's said.

I remember I was speaking to him about sin and addiction and he seemed genuinely surprised that in galatians Paul says drunkards don't inherit the kingdom of heaven. He then said that his authority isn't of significant importance and dismissed it.

>>3758667No he has no catholic imagery anywhere
№3758686[Quote]
>>3758664He always brings up this one verse from Matthew where Jesus says "give Caesar what is to Caesar and give god is to god" or whatever as an excuse for governments to allow abortion and euthanasia
№3758690[Quote]
He also always brings up homosexuality and how it's "actually fine and ok!" Even though it is said across both testaments that it isn't
№3758695[Quote]
>>3758690Whenever I try and tell him about scripture that debunks these claims he always just talks about the golden rule or whatever

>>3758653 (OP)Catholics aren't supposed to read the bible. They are supposed to go to church and listen to latin words they don't understand.

>>3758700Latin masses got replaced like 60 years ago and that's also just wrong

I mean he is partly right, we dont follow most of the rules and laws written in the old testament and we dont sacrifice animals anymore. The old testament gives us history and the context of Jesus being the messiah.
№3758738[Quote]
>>3758728Hell isn't something Catholics should worry about if they're following the Lords rules and teachings

>>3758722It did thanks asking
№3758755[Quote]
Ok some of the things you described are worrying. I guess it just has to do with being a modern catholic
№3758770[Quote]
>>3758752Because to understand the teachings of Christ and his apostles you have to read the bible!
№3758772[Quote]
>>3758770Well he already has read it once no ? I think he can understand the overall message if I did
№3758775[Quote]
Not even christian btw
№3758798[Quote]
>>3758772To truly appreciate and understand something you have read it over and over again. And yes the general theme of the bible is quite clear but to truly understand the word of God and his teachings you should not just read but study it

>>3758705The catholic church refused to let the bible be translated for 1500 years, the first actions of every reformation monarch was to order a bible translation.

>>3758809Having a single unified bible is good thoughbeit
№3758837[Quote]
>>3758826yea because nobody but the church and a small highly educated elite can understand so the plebs have to trust the church's retelling.

>>3758653 (OP)He's correct about the Old testament though.
№3758847[Quote]
>>3758812Oh yeah that's bad
№3758875[Quote]
>>3758841No the old testament is still important. The deuterocanonical books less so but the wisdom, history, and prophets are still valuable scripture to study for Christians as well
№3758881[Quote]
>>3758875The new testament trumps it in importance though by a significant margine
№3758887[Quote]
i refuse to read the bible. sometimes i google bible passages just as a joke. to mock how stupid it is. its just like some person giving basic advice for everyday situations and making a bigger deal of it self than it really is,

>I don't think my dad has ever truly read the bible past the 4 gospels yet he claims to be a devout catholic. He also thinks that the Old Testament is completely irrelevant to the Christian faith.
