I find militance to be chiefly the province of adolescents and the perpetual child.

Got the Sunday Times?
I find mainstream media to be chiefly a broad path that leads to cliff hanging.
I'd rather be an alive adolescent than an adult zombie.

'mon back, good buddy.

Protestant: The Definition and Usage

Protestant

The Definition:


1. One of the German princes and cities that protested against the decision of the second Diet of Speyer (1529) to enforce the Edict of Worms (1521) and deny toleration to Lutherans. This is the original meaning and the origin of the term.

So you're saying the original protestants ate worms?

KJV) Job 24:20 The womb shall forget him;
the worm shall feed sweetly on him;
he shall be no more remembered;
and wickedness shall be broken as a tree.

I was looking for an accelerant. You proposed gasoline, I prefer the safe flashpoint of the elite and effete American Pravda.

I'd prefer to be an alive and not crispy adult.

Adolescents are Hellspawn.

i once looked at the ages of humanity as seven days of creation through the typology and the protestants ended up being fish when contrasted with the "emergent" landmass . so i'm kinda chuckling to myself . tee hee .

No, not the Diet of Worms,... The Edict of Worms,.
You can have your cake & edict, too.;)

But they rejected a Diet for an Edict of Worms .. so it still might have to do with food ;) :D

How much of Matthew 24 is fulfilled

Matt 24:19 "Woe yet to those in belly having and to those suckling in those the days!
20 "Be ye praying yet that no may be becoming the flight of ye of winter neither a Sabbath.

The Destruction of Jerusalem - George Peter Holford, 1805AD

The day on which Titus encompassed Jerusalem, was the feast of the Passover.......

.........Meanwhile the horrors of famine grew still more melancholy and afflictive. The Jews, for want of food were at length compelled to eat their belts, their sandals, the skins of their shields, dried grass,
and even the ordure of oxen. In the depth or this horrible extremity, a Jewess of noble family urged by the intolerable cravings of hunger, slew her infant child, and prepared it for a meal ;

My first of 2 sons wasn't, & neither was my older brother.

What I proposed was that you're finding of adolescence was accelerant plenty.
Living is best here in protestant forefathered America, away from the flashpoints of more orthodox sectarian militants.

By that means, feel free to protest!

The astute reader will note that I paired adolescence and "conservative Protestant activism," not conservative Protestants, or Protestants generally.

Democracy began with the Greeks (pagan) and the French (Catholic)

...And America with the Protestants (Christian).
Catholic condemnation of democracy, freedom of religion, & seperation of church & state in "Syllabus of Errors".
Consider this your memo.
Astute readers will also note that Prot activists of all ages are Protestant generaly.

Syllabus of Errors - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Statements the encyclical condemned as false include the following:

"Protestantism is nothing more than another form of the same true Christian religion, in which form it is given to please God equally as in the Catholic Church" (No. 18).

i also love the "antoginizing" tone of it as well..

So IOW's let me start an "non antagonising" thread but while I antognize and insult.

But i guess we have to give a "10" for creativity on how to start a not the usual Catholic Church is the devil thread.

but don't you see....its the anti-catholics who keep the Catholic church going, the RC church now thrives on victimhood. Ever watch the Catholic channel on sky?:- they're even hyper-criticising their own religion.

Time to get back to real Christianity and forget about all the RC 'church' tradition.:thumbsup:. The problem to christian unity is the Pope, so instead of trying to convince him that he has to change, simply forget about him, and concentrate on building a christian brotherhood with all the other denominations.

Sounds great! Let's see a demonstration of protestant unity which isn't directed at the Catholic Church. :thumbsup:

How about unity of Catholics with Protestants while not trying to persuade them to "Come home to Rome?" ;)

How about we all worry more about working for the Kingdom together, studying scripture and praying together, and what we can learn from each other; less about trying to correct each other, and let God worry about how he can re-unite us?
