TLDR - First few sentences
Christian Science does not agree with the theory that morals grow out of people’s behavior. It stands firmly on the ground that morals for mankind are derived from the divine Mind, God, and that they are therefore ageless. Morally right behavior pertaining to sex was revealed by Moses.
When they do the healing can they at least start with the priests that are fucking young boys?
You know, because Moses said or whatever the fuck.
Nooo you got it all wrong priest don’t rape they inject homosexuality vaccine with their own seringe

Padre Pio was one of the biggest scammer southern Italy was ever plagued by and he did more damages to this land than any of the mafia family living there has ever done.
I’m glad he died the horrible way he did and I hope he is now rotting in a metaphorical hell where he belong.
Source: I’m an Italian who has seen the mental and social damages caused by this fucker
Where can I read about his death? All I find on Google is religious crap
He died of an heart attack at 81 years old, just like a normal man would do. No golden carriage descending from the heavens to collect his body nor no resurrection three days after his death.
A con man dying like a normal human after a life of lies and peddled “miracles” to poor, uneducated people.

youre literally arguing with a flat earther, check their username and post history. you arent going to reason someone out of a position they didnt reason themselves into.
dudes just detached from reality.
I know but still sometimes I cannot let go and I have to follow for a couple of days these kind of people just to remind them they are no longer in touch with this world, hoping that this will prevent them by spreading their nonsensical reasoning in real life by giving them a good dose of preemptive shame.

Lmao, your ignorance about this subject shows immediately.
Padre Pio was considered a scammer by the Catholic church itself and was also found to be a fraud when visited by the doctors sent by the pope to determine if the scars he showed to his followers were of divine origin. When analysed the doctors found that they were most likely self inflicted wounds (there’s also the testimony of a pharmacist who sold this con man some carbolic acid) and that he was putting forward a show for his followers, so much so that he was denied the right to celebrate mass for his schemes. It was John Paul the 2nd who canonized him in 2002 because he realized that if he wanted the support of the gullible people in southern Italy he would have needed to give them something in return; and so he did, by making him a saint against the better judgment of Benedict the 15th and of Pio the 11th, the popes who lived during his times and who barred him from celebrating mass.
I’d love to give you some references to educate you but unfortunately most of the material is in Italian language and your ignorance prevents you from accessing it.
Padre Pio did not invent the microscope but he was able to create a cult worshipping his image in lieu of god, a sin which should be very grave according to the Christian faith tenets

Is cathopedia catholic enough for you?
You are as ignorant as adamant in your ignorance so I don’t think this will make any difference for your bigoted mindset but still it’s funny to see you squirm while trying to justify your position.
I used the popes version of the story just because they should be considered the highest authority by people like you. If they did decide something that should be the law for all Catholics or are you suggesting you have more authority than the popes who lived during padre Pio’s time?
Catholics do worship images, have you ever heard of so called “holy cards”? Italy is full of it and in Pietrelcina there’s a very profitable business running around them.
When something miraculous begins, it has to be investigated.

All fowls that creep, going upon all four, shall be an abomination unto you.”
If you wear ripped jeans, you're going to burn.Leviticus 10:6 “Uncover not your heads, neither rend your clothes; lest ye die, and lest wrath come upon all the people.”

But if she bear a maid child, then she shall be unclean two weeks, as in her separation: and she shall continue in the blood of her purifying threescore and six days.”

Pull out=dieGenesis 38:9-10 “Onan knew that the offspring would not be his; so when he went in to his brother’s wife, he wasted his seed on the ground in order not to give offspring to his brother. But what he did was displeasing in the sight of the Lord; so He took his life also.”

Behold, if it is true and the thing certain that this detestable thing has been done in Israel, 5 then you shall bring out that man or that woman who has done this evil deed to your gates, that is, the man or the woman, and you shall stone them to [b]death. 6 On the [c]evidence of two witnesses or three witnesses, he who is to die shall be put to death; he shall not be put to death on the [d]evidence of one witness. 7 The hand of the witnesses shall be first against him to put him to death, and afterward the hand of all the people. So you shall purge the evil from your midst." Don't say "Fuck you, mom!" Even if you're a rebellious teen.“Anyone who curses their father or mother is to be put to death.

LyingLeviticus 19:11 "Do not steal. “Do not deceive or cheat one another.”
CheatingLeviticus 19:11 "Do not steal. “Do not deceive or cheat one another.”
Funny how so many Christians nowadays say homosexuality is an abomination, when they are committing abominations themselves when they say this.
I’m a straight supporter of the LGBT community, and I’m proud of it. Are you, too?
Bonus! The raped person must marry their own rapist!
Deuteronomy 22:28-29
If a man happens to meet a virgin who is not pledged to be married and rapes her and they are discovered, he shall pay her father fifty shekels[a] of silver. He must marry the young woman, for he has violated her. He can never divorce her as long as he lives.
I knew of some of these but this is a really good list! Saving this so I have these in my pocket when I need to point out the absurdities to someone trying to use religion against me.

First, I’d suggest you to take some classes on writing and syntax, your posts are barely readable and understandable.
Second, the old testament is the foundation of the new one so its core tenants are still considered valid by all Christian denominations, some even recognizing it more authority in respect to the new testament.
Third, a father should be obeyed AS LONG AS he is a reasonable and caring father. An abusive or violent parent should not be obeyed just like a tyrannical or undemocratic ruler shouldn’t, expecially if they ask for something causing stress or harm to his children/subjects.
Fourth, a child would also not exist without his mother but in your Christian mindset this is never taken into account.

You speak English because is your mother tongue, I speak English because that’s the only language you can understand. We are not the same.
There’s a difference in forcing a child to go to school and forcing a child to blindly follow the tenants of a cult established by uneducated people living more than 2000 years ago. In the first case you are forcing your authority on the child to provide him with the tools needed to be accomplished in this life, as our history as a species has shown for the past two centuries, when child teaching has started to become more and more common also for the poorest classes in our societies while also our standard of living have been improving steadily. In the second one you are forcing unreasonable and, in some cases, even conflicting beliefs not based in any logic or research but in pure faith alone. What if your son does not share the same beliefs as you? Who are you to force these onto him without a single shread of evidence proving their innate validity? What if you are wrong about the afterlife and Muslims, Buddhist or any other religion are right? Are you ready to bring upon yourself and upon your child eternal damnation due to your decisions?
Lastly there is no god. Or at least there is no god as it is described by Christianity or any other major religion. God is a concept completely alien to humans, were we able to understand it we would be god’s ourselves. Since this is not the case one can only logically assume that we still haven’t find the right “god” to worship

Well then, wait for god to show himself to you and you alone while, at the same time, leaving everyone else free to live their lives as they see fit for themselves.
Remember what Jesus has left as only commandments: don’t judge if you don’t want to be judged and love the others as you love yourself. Of course these are two commandments which are not applicable for modern rightoids as they are well too ready to judge others and hate their neighbours if they don’t think as they would like them to but this is something they will have to discuss with their god once they’ll leave this earth. Until them we will be in their way when they’ll try to fix the their false religion and god upon us non-believers as our constitutions and legal frameworks allow us to do.

And rational thinking is a cure for Christianity.
Can confirm. Was cured of this many years ago.
If God says murder is cool now, is it cool now? If yes, then your system of morals is arbitrary. If no, then God is only following a moral law, rather than creating it.
That’s what scares the fuck out of me when it comes to major religions. If the Pope one day said, “rise up and kill” and only 1% of Catholics followed his orders, the bloodbath would be vast.
Maybe Christianity can be healed with gay science?
That’s fine. Pretty sure Ricardo can cure heterosexuality.
“Reverend Bob, lay your hands on me and heal my homosexuality! Specifically, lay your hands all over my penis.”
The healing of religion—and many such cases have been genuinely healed—comes, like the healing of any other abnormal condition, through the application of the truths of life and man as taught in Science. These truths include rational thought, scientific theory and experimentation, rejection of groupthink, and the elevation and celebration of fellow women and men as Equals.
