Man, I'm not catholic or protestant, but damn am I tired of protestants acting like catholics aren't christian. They were even first for christ's sake and they act like they were the ones that changed the religion.
Whatever it takes to make them "right."
The Catholic Church has been guilty of abuses in the past (and defending many of those.) The Reformation was the result of a Middle Ages revolution, but now it's hard to tell a Conservative Protestant from an Inquisitor.
Recent years, the Catholics have softened up a bit because they see what kind of damage hardline Protestants have done. They even came forward and made an official apology for the abuses of the Inquisition. As far as I know, only Jerry Falwell has made an apology for his remarks that gays, athiests and feminists caused the WTC disaster.
Still, you'll find some Catholics who play this same kind of attitude from their viewpoint.
Still, this makes for an interesting social commentary.
Something about "Judge not, and ye shall not be judged."
No. Only marry within your class, colour, religion and denomination. Integration and tolerance is the work of Satan.
Seriously, some people...
Depends if she's Ok with having kids till her uterus collapses I suppose!
Oh wait, you're one of those idiots that think birth control's bad too, but to top that insanity you think Catholics aren't Christians.
F
I do take offense. My mother's father (Protestant) married a Catholic girl, and my father's mother (also Protestant) married a Catholic guy. Both converted when they married, which is why some of these idiots have such a problem with it. It could have gone the other way. Needles to say, if they hadn't, neither of my parents would be here, nor, gulp, would I.
Catholic is Christian, so yes.
Even if you've confused Christian with Protestant, still yes! Come on...
Yes, a Christian girl can marry a Christian guy. More important though; "are they in love, do they share interest, have they similar goals in life, have they tried living together"?
I was raised protestant, sort of, and no-one ever divided into Christians and Catholics, as far as I remember. I was taught that it was the Protestants who broke out of the Catholic church and that Jesus was Jewish.
Right... now call me presumptuous, but firstly, I think you meant to call yourself "heavenly-realm" instead of the somewhat ironic "heaven-lie-realm".
Secondly, no offense to you, but anyone who considers religious sect as a significantly decisive factor in matrimony, is a bit of a dolt.
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
