I'm not sure about all the terms, but salvation is certainly not given by the church ... [sarcasm]that would unemploy J*[/sarcasm] - if I may say ;-)malicious_bloke said:... humans are all depraved sinners and damned by default until they recieved salvation through the church.

I don't believe in this asshole's God or heaven, I don't want him pratonizing me by saying "don't worry my little heretical son you will be in heaven too weather you want to or not".
FUCK YOU!!!! I DON'T WANT TO GO TO HEAVEN!!! I FUCKING RENOUNCE THE HOLY GHOST AND DENOUNCE IT AS THE CUNT IT IS! THE VIRGIN MARY WAS ANYTHING BUT, SHE WAS A PROMISCUOS LIAR THAT GOT AWAY WITH THE STUPPIDEST TALE IN HISTORY TO AVOID GETTING STONED TO DEATH! (I actually dont believe either her, or Jesus even existed but I'm just making a point here)
Go to heaven for what? to become a mindsalve to God and sing his praises for the rest of eternity? No thanks.
I know that whatever the pope may think doesn't make heaven any less of a coked up fantasy created when humanity had yet to learn how to properly wipe its own ass, yet I still pisses me off that this jackass is trying to come of as wise and saintly while being a company man to Jesus Inc.
People are saying "Oh he is more progresive than the las one"; what he is is a better salesman, because if you make the church less rigorous, it is harder to find faults with it thus more people stay and keep giving them money.

But mind you ~ the omni-driven all-loving virture will approve you anyway ~ no chance to skip heaven :mrgreen:
The priest is as a blessed agent only a conjunction operator to God's acknowledgement. It is completely up to your repentance if those specific sins you have actually confessed will be forgiven. The priest in a way only affirms that you have been heard and therefore restates that the promise of forgiveness will be granted for you.malicious_bloke said:Then what is the confessional for?
If a priest can grant you absolution for your sins, doesn't that bypass the whole jesus thing aswell?

To be honest I find it much less insulting to be told by the Pope that I can go to heaven too, than to be told that atheists are like Nazis---which was the old Pope's line of attack.
I go with you that the catholic church bases on violent history and behavior (incl lies) and don't see any chance for it to develope into something good.Nemesiah said:The catholic church makes it easy to leave due to its nature, it is a religion founded on hate, mysoginy, murder, genocide and other idiotic ideas. The fact that they are changing (or rather masking) these ideas just makes it that much harder for people to see them for what they realy are, that is what apologists are all about, making their nonsense more palatable so that more people will believe so they give them money.
malicious_bloke said:It is an interesting conundrum for the church leadership though. Having to walk a tightrope between alienating potential recruits from places where catholic teachings (especially on 'issues' like the use of birth control) seem archaic and out-of-touch AND simultaneously keep the church traditionalists happy.
Successive popes lecturing the world on the evils of unfettered capitalism while sitting in the world's biggest treasure collection remains hypocritical bullshit, however.
IMO the world would be a better place if Jeremy Irons was the next pope. At least incest and poisonings are more fun than covering up for paedophile rings.
