For context, I disagree with the Catholic church and I am not Catholic myself. But up until recently, I simply considered it a matter of difference, similar to a church who firmly believes that water baptism is needed for salvation, as opposed to another who simply see it as an outward expression of your conversion and faith. But with the pope's recent changes to fundamental church doctrine lately, I have to ask: Why and How can you still follow a church that is betraying the teachings of Jesus Christ himself? I understand one of the cornerstones of Catholic faith is faith in the church, so much as doctrine spoken by the pope is considered on par with scripture itself. But how can you continue to condone the actions of a MAN (Yes, the pope is human at the end of the day) who speaks "law" which directly contradicts Christ's teachings? Does this not bother you or cause a moment's pause to think "Maybe this isn't the correct church?"

Well, that's off topic, but if you want to get into the evidence for Jesus, I'd be more than happy to engage that with you.

Yes: Jews lie. Yes, Jews are the "chosen" people cause of how flawed they are. But the evidence that Jesus died, came back from the dead, performed other healing miracles, etc. is very compelling, and at times, overwhelming.

I respectfully disagree. I think jews use religion as a weapon against White people for their own aggrandizement. They have the Catholic Church sponsoring the invasion of all White countries in the name of Jesus. I'm sure you've seen their JIDF memes claiming: Jesus was an immigrant... Jesus would welcome all refugees... Jesus loved diversity, equity and inclusion. Long before Christianity swept Europe, White societies from Ireland to India were civilized, safe, peaceful and prosperous. The jew has turned that altruism and empathy inherent in White people against them. The eradication of the White race is their goal. That's what makes them and everything they say, including the books written by them in the Bible, subject to doubt.

You're equating a church to the worship of Our Lord. They're not the same. In fact, Jesus himself calls out jews by calling them the synagogue of satan. In fact, he also warns us that in the final days, MANY false prophets and teachers will arise, and it's out job as a Christian to adhere to his message and his message alone.

Also Jesus did NOT welcome refugees. That is a myth. He did eventually expand the gospel to the gentiles, but his original message was for the jew only. In addition, in his story of the good Samaritan, no where in that story did he say to bring the injured man back to the Samaritans homeland for treatment. He brought him to the nearest inn, paid for a few days of rest and treatment, and went on his way.

Faith is belief without proof. I have Faith in... call it The Divine, because of the supernatural nature of the proof I've been blessed with given on occasion.

I don't have faith in the stories told by jews 2,000 years ago. I don't know how anyone can. Even if you believe the Gospel, of the 12 Apostles that actually Walked and Talked with Jesus, 3 of THEM didn't have enough faith to accept He was the Son of God. (Peter/Thomas/Judas)

I used to have a poster on my wall like Agent Mulder from the X-files, only it was a Crucifix instead of a UFO. The words were the same.
