>>23392980>catholicism is the original christianityNo it’s not. Original Christianity from the time of the Apostles didn’t have all the pagan rites that were grafted into the church during the 3rd and 4th Centuries where they copypasted Bible names over the Ancient Greek and Roman gods and goddesses and started praying to statues of the Virgin Mary instead of praying to statues of Vesta and Athena. The original popes were handpicked by the Roman Emperors until the year 752. The Roman church split from the rest of Christianity in 1054 as part of a papal power play. Roman Catholicism is what happens when you create an entire religion of circular reasoning based on Matthew 16:18 and 2 Thessalonians 2:15. You get an entire church full of retards who actually believe that Pope Bob from Illinois can exclusively talk to God, and has the ability to supersede the authority of the Apostle Paul and even Jesus Christ Himself based on how they lawyerized what the Apostle Paul and Jesus Christ said in Scripture. Roman Catholics have their own talmud called the catechism AKA “sacred tradition,” which they believe takes authority over the Holy Bible. It’s literally the exact same thing the Pharisees were doing to the Bible during the time of Jesus.
