/lit/ - Literature

>>16825138
i think you're dumb and this is not /lit/ related
you should go back to where you came from faggot

>>16825160
How is it not /lit/ related? Where do you propose i should post instead? And where do you think i come from?

>>16825170
>How is it not /lit/ related?
/lit/ is for the discussion of literature, specifically books (fiction & non-fiction), short stories, poetry, creative writing, etc. If you want to discuss history, religion, or the humanities, go to /his/. If you want to discuss politics, go to /pol/. Philosophical discussion can go on either /lit/ or /his/, but those discussions of philosophy that take place on /lit/ should be based around specific philosophical works to which posters can refer.
>Where do you propose i should post instead?
I don't know and I don't care
>And where do you think i come from?
I don't know and I don't care

>>16825181
Well, sir, in this case i shall ask my question at /his/ also. I shall not be deleting this thread however since I'm asking you specifically - the /lit/izens (MY FELLOW /lit/izens) for your opinion on this subject. Because I value your opinion more highly than the opinion of /his/torians. This is because i consider myself rather one of you than one of them.
Now that you know this, perhaps i can persuade you to be more amicable and respond to my question in OP? Well?

«BAPTISM» IS A SUBSECT OF «PROTESTANTISM»; «PROTESTANTISM» IS ANTICHRISTIAN.

How so? I am interested and might even agree if you say that catholicism is also antichristian.

>>16825138
baptist churches are gossip circles for old women and places for boomer men to go off on nonsensical rants; growing up as one turned me into an atheist until I became Catholic

>>16825283


«PROTESTANTISTIC» THEOLOGY IS FATALISTIC, AND, ULTIMATELY, NIHILISTIC; «PROTESTANTISTIC» THEOLOGY IS AN INVERSIVE ABERRATION OF CHRISTIAN THEOLOGY, THE MORE FLAGRANT, CRITICAL ERRORS OF WHICH INCLUDE: (I) THE PRESUMPTION OF INHERENT EVIL IN ALL HUMANS, (II) THE POSITING OF ANTITHESIS BETWEEN FAITH, AND REASON, (III) THE SUBORDINATION OF REASON TO WILL.

ON THESE THREE ABERRANT DOGMAS STANDS THE HYDRA OF «PROTESTANTISM».

>>16825329
Okay but what about catholicism?

>>16825342


WHAT ABOUT IT?

>>16825377
Is it antichristian too or not?

>>16825271
wtf is this true??

>>16825428
yes, there is something very fishy in western religion. it is indeed true.

>>16825390


THE CATHOLIC CREED IS THE TRUE CREED.

>>16825522
Then I will not agree with you

>>16825547


YOU SHOULD AGREE WITH THE TRUTH, NOT WITH ME.

Why don't you fuck off back to /a/ with your board purism nonsense.

In order to protest the Roman Catholic Church, one must first recognize it as a legitimate entity. Baptists believe that the Roman Catholic Church was illegitimate from its foundation, so they have no more reason to protest against it than to protest against Buddhism. Baptists are not Protestants.

>>16825329
>PRESUMPTION OF INHERENT EVIL IN ALL HUMANS
The Roman Catholics are the ones who practice pedobaptism because they believe in original sin. How can you accuse Baptists of believing that all people have a sin nature when you believe that infants will go to hell/purgatory/limbo if they haven't been baptized?

Historical baptists were based. They wouldn't want anything to do with modern IFBs though.

Baptism?

Getting my third child baptized.

t. Infant baptizing Presbyterian

>>16825138
You have to be more specific. You're referring to Independent Fundamentalist Baptists; not all Baptists are like this.
>t. my oneitis goes to a "contemporary" Baptist church, and many things there are liberal, if not un-biblical.

Grew up in a southern town where a Baptist church exists every 5 miles. They watched TV, women wore jeans and worked.

I think you may be referring to Holyness or Pentecostals.

And no, it's not exactly a redpill. Redpills and objective truth may exist but aren't as binary and monolithic as your average /pol/ user would have you believe.

For instance. How does women wearing skirts improve society?

Even if you dont look, it will trigger an autonomic and sexual response for most men at some level. Women provocatively dressed clothing are an occasion of sin. The Pslamist warns to not even to go near the house of a strange woman, let alone speak or be in her direct presence. Jeans, yoga pants, cleavage and so on are scandalous clothes that induce one to sin.

>>16825138
Baptism is great. I mean, it has to be, it's the only way to join Holy Catholic Church.
