Quote:"In the eyes of the Assembly, this monstrous law is based in the freedom and equality natural to the human being, yet can there be something more incomprehensible than setting such a licentious freedom and equality? This freedom […] which the National Assembly grants humans as an inalienable inborn right is incompatible with the law set by God the Creator. After all, as St. Augustine said, human society is nothing more than only a general contract to listen to kings whose power stems not from a social contract but from God."
It's pretty ugly.
"Liberty of conscience is the greatest challenge" said Pope John Paul, as the first pope to set foot on England since the reformation.
The stupid people thought that he meant that giving people liberty is the greatest task, but as the Bible says, he speaks with a forked tongue, "liberty is the greatest challenge to get rid of."

Yo, Banned! You need to look into what Min is talking about. He is totally correct on this!
You know what my pet name for protestants is? Diet Catholics.
All Protestant denominations (including yours) have more in common with Catholics than they do the Early Christian Church. And don't come back at me with some nay saying bullcrap. Take the time to look into Minimalist's claims. If you want to disagree with them, fine, but first demonstrate that you know what the fuck he is talking about.
Yes and no.
It has to do with events.
The reformation churches arose by accepting truth of the Bible which the RCC denied the people access to. It challenged the church and eventually broke her back.
It wasn't until years later, that the Protestant churches ceased their flight to freedom and renegotiated their stance, and united with the mother church, in finance and doctrine, until today they are the same beast.
The Bible encodes it by the following statement in Rev 17,
Mystery - Babylon, the Mother of Harlots.
Mystery - work it out.
Babylon - the city where Israel was captured, because of their apostacy. The papacy arose from an apostate Christian world. It persecuted the saints and kept the world in darkness for 1260 years.
Mother of Harlots - the church would have spawnings. The churches which were established after her downfall, were just as corrupt as her.
The reformation was right, but the institutions/churches which followed ended up rejoining Rome. That meant doing her dirty deeds against humanity.
