Catholics on /int/ glorify the Catholic Church because they believe it associates them with the crusades.
This is a fact, that Catholics of /int/ think being baptized in that satanic church makes them as cool as the crusades XDdddddd
When you tell someone you are Catholic, they aren't going to think of you as a crusader Muslim killer, they are going to think of you as a Catholic
Prove me wrong

I am Catholic and I don't believe this
Don't bother with Catholics, they already know they are going to hell for being heretics so they have nothing to lose.
Orthodox are heretics too
>>56606553

Tbqhfamilia the Anglican Church is filled with idolatry
>>56606521
It's more like to anyone who doesn't pretend to be a Christian because of 4chan thinks you're all annoying reverse-fedora faggots, not just Catholics.
>>56606521
As a Catholic I like it not because of the crusades but rather because Martin Luther and Atheism were mistakes.
Catholics are idol worshiping pedos.
It's time to join Orthodoxy.
Protestantism is pretty much just diarrhea all over the place.
Catholicism is heading that way.
Orthodoxy is the only one holding on.

>Perhaps the most important aspect of the rule of faith is that it gives us what the Church conceived to be ‘the main body of truth’ (to use Irenaeus’ phrase). The Scriptures are, after all, a body of documents testifying to God’s activity towards men in Christ. They are not a rule of faith, nor a list of doctrines, nor a manual of the articles of a Christian man’s belief. In the rule of faith we have a key to what the Church thought the Scriptures came to, where it was, so to speak, that their weight fell, what was their drift. This interpretation of their drift was itself tradition, a way of handling the Scriptures, a way of living in them and being exposed to their effect, which, while not an original part of the Christian Gospel, not itself the paradosis par excellence, had been developed from the Gospel itself, from its heart, under the guidance of the Holy Spirit as an essential part of the existence of the Christian faith in history…We cannot recognize the rule of faith as original tradition, going back by oral continuity independently of Scripture to Christ and his apostles. But we can recognize it as the tradition in which the Church was interpreting Scripture under the guidance of the Holy Spirit, and as such claim it as an essential ingredient of historical Christianity. (R.P.C. Hanson, Tradition In The Early Church, pp. 128, 129)

Nah lad, see the Second Council of Nicaea

>But when the adversary of the race of the righteous, the envious, malicious, and wicked one, perceived the impressive nature of his martyrdom, and [considered] the blameless life he had led from the beginning, and how he was now crowned with the wreath of immortality, having beyond dispute received his reward, he did his utmost that not the least memorial of him should be taken away by us, although many desired to do this, and to become possessors of his holy flesh. For this end he suggested it to Nicetes, the father of Herod and brother of Alce, to go and entreat the governor not to give up his body to be buried, "lest," said he, "forsaking Him that was crucified, they begin to worship this one." This he said at the suggestion and urgent persuasion of the Jews, who also watched us, as we sought to take him out of the fire, being ignorant of this, that it is neither possible for us ever to forsake Christ, who suffered for the salvation of such as shall be saved throughout the whole world (the blameless one for sinners ), nor to worship any other. For Him indeed, as being the Son of God, we adore; but the martyrs, as disciples and followers of the Lord, we worthily love on account of their extraordinary affection towards their own King and Master, of whom may we also be made companions and fellow disciples!
>The centurion then, seeing the strife excited by the Jews, placed the body in the midst of the fire, and consumed it. Accordingly, we afterwards took up his bones, as being more precious than the most exquisite jewels, and more purified than gold, and deposited them in a fitting place, whither, being gathered together, as opportunity is allowed us, with joy and rejoicing, the Lord shall grant us to celebrate the anniversary of his martyrdom, both in memory of those who have already finished their course, and for the exercising and preparation of those yet to walk in their steps.

I'm not religious so I don't care either way, but frankly whenever I see protestant arguments on /int/ I can't help but think that protestantism is quite literally on par with islam, and I most certainly don't mean that in a good way.

This issue was put to rest in the 7th century.
Stop being a heretic.
Jesus himself is a material manifestation of god.

Nobody cares about crusades, you must be very fat and gay

>Catholics on /int/ glorify the Catholic Church because they believe it associates them with the crusades.
I glorify it because it is the one true religion we should all follow, not because of the crusades
A catholic lady gave me ice cream yesterday because they were celebrating the day of La Virgen de los Dolores
