https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mithraism
Mithra was very popular in the legions but it was a boys only club. Mom
was left home with too much time on her hands and was recruited by the
Christians. When the old man got home she explained to him how it was
going to be if he ever expected to get a piece.
It always worked that way. Æthelberht was the first Christian English
king. He converted right after the little French hottie he married
explained the facts of life. Next thing you know, you've got Augustine
running around converting people.

Hi Rbowman,
"Protestant" correctly do not think that Mary is a god. This comes
from some of the inappropriate displays of statuary in Catholic
churches: they "seem" to place Mary and Jesus on an
equal footing. They "seem" to do this other places as well.
But, try as you may, you will be hard pressed to find a Catholic
that thinks Mary is a god and is anything other than a beloved
Saint. It is a massive misunderstanding on the part of
Protestants. They really do need to speak to the Catholics
and find out what Catholics actually believe. (And don't
worry, their are enough out weird things for Protestants to be
scandalized over.)
But they calm down when reminded of what the Bible
says about Mary:
For he hath regarded the low estate of his handmaiden
[Mary]: for, behold, from henceforth all generations
shall call me blessed.
-- Luke 1:48KJV
Beloved Mary has an enormous heart and will pray for anyone,
including me.
And all Christians need to understand that we are not each others
enemies. The enemy is Satin.

very little imagination. They are very close to the Muslims in their
attitude to religious art. In fact, they parse the ten commandments to
make sure to come down heavy on the graven image clause. Even the saint
thing rankles; intercession of a saint goes against the solas.
Many have no desire to know what Catholics really believe. In fact, the
Klan figured a Catholic would do if they couldn't find a handy negro.
I have personal theological issues but the Catholic Church did a pretty
good job of adapting to the soul of the northern Europeans when they
displaced the old Gods.

And apparently also a sadness that they have never been to a football
game: John 3-16
For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only
Son, that *whoever* believes in him shall not perish but
have eternal life.
"whoever" really means "whoever". Not just those preselected.
They don't let the Bible get in their way either:
Ark of the Covenant
“They shall construct an ark of acacia wood ... You shall
make two cherubim of gold, make them of hammered work
[l]at the two ends of the mercy seat. Make one cherub
[m]at one end and one cherub [n]at the other end; you
shall make the cherubim of one piece with the mercy seat
at its two ends. 20 The cherubim shall have their wings
spread upward, covering the mercy seat with their wings
and [o]facing one another; the faces of the cherubim
are to be turned toward the mercy sea
--Exodus 25:10-22
Hmmm. Statues. Hmmmm. The first commandment must mean
no art depicting Bad Guys. Hmmmmmmmm.

scandalized if a saint is asked for their prayers.
They love their wives and husbands, even love their dogs,
and they get all apoplectic over loving someone that has
gone before.
And again, don't let the Bible get in their way.
It is sad that it seems to be a tenant of their faith
what others believe. Ask them? Not a chance!
Hold over hatred from the reformation. The Catholics handled
the Reformation really badly.

Well, the Reformation wasn't a reformation, just an introduction of

Ultimately the Prods got what they deserved, a individualistic secular
society with the mainline protestant sects flat lining. Too bad the
Catholics chose to join the lemming leap after Vatican II. The last Mass

I remember the high Catholic mass when I was a kid (I was raised
Catholic). Much different now-a-days.
I much prefer the way the Ancient Church (Orthodox) does their
services. I have mainly only been able to watch it though.
I love Pascha (Easter) service where the priest sings out
"Christ is Risen!" and the choir blast back at him "Indeed
he is risen!" and then blast away (the priest lights the fuse).
In the Catholic services, it is very much like the Protestants.
The minister talks for a while, then gets a rest while the choir
sings. In the Ancient service, the choir blasts back and forth
with the priest. The folks is suppose to join in too,
but what would life be without the lecture ...

I was pretty young. I only remember it was grand.
There are still Catholics out there that practice the traditional mass:

got us beat on grandness):

There was a priest from Helena that would come over every couple of
weeks but they dropped it. Now you have to go over there. iirc, he was
in the Society of Saint Pius V. SSPV broke away from SSPX since they
thought SSPX was too liberal. SSPV were definite sedevacantists, meaning
they thought the current pope was going so far against the doctrine that
he wasn't really a pope, hence the See was vacant.
Pius IX warned against modernism in his Syllabus of Errors

never happened. And humanity would have not lost ~230,000 souls.
I remember the high Catholic mass when I was a kid (I was raised
Catholic). Much different now-a-days.
I much prefer the way the Ancient Church (Orthodox) does their
services. I have mainly only been able to watch it though.
I love Pascha (Easter) service where the priest sings out
"Christ is Risen!" and the choir blast back at him "Indeed
he is risen!" and then blast away (the priest lights the fuse).
In the Catholic services, it is very much like the Protestants.
The minister talks for a while, then gets a rest while the choir
sings. In the Ancient service, the choir blasts back and forth
with the priest. The folks is suppose to join in too,
but what would life be without the lecture ...

I used to do work for different churches not because I shared their faith but because the congregation were nice people. The churches I helped out were small and not wealthy but the people there would help others however they could. I don't care for the mega churches because the members of those institutions have a holier than thou attitude and I know some good people who have left those congregations because of such behavior. The megachurches with their millions and lavish facilities are a real turn off to me and a lot of other people. The old country church with its simple structure and a congregation of wonderful, generous people who will help out their fellow man are what I think of as REAL Christians.

It was unfortunate that the Reformation had to happen at all.
Had the Catholics not left the Church and remained true to
apostolic teaching and the Councils, the Reformation would have
never happened. And humanity would have not lost ~230,000 souls.
I remember the high Catholic mass when I was a kid (I was raised
Catholic). Much different now-a-days.
I much prefer the way the Ancient Church (Orthodox) does their
services. I have mainly only been able to watch it though.
I love Pascha (Easter) service where the priest sings out
"Christ is Risen!" and the choir blast back at him "Indeed
he is risen!" and then blast away (the priest lights the fuse).
In the Catholic services, it is very much like the Protestants.
The minister talks for a while, then gets a rest while the choir
sings. In the Ancient service, the choir blasts back and forth
with the priest. The folks is suppose to join in too,
but what would life be without the lecture ...

Well, the Reformation wasn't a reformation, just an introduction of
theological novelties that ultimately fueled the Enlightenment.
Ultimately the Prods got what they deserved, a individualistic secular
society with the mainline protestant sects flat lining. Too bad the
Catholics chose to join the lemming leap after Vatican II. The last Mass
I went to, back in the '80s, might as well have been a Unitarian love feast.

other way round? The last time I had to endure such, it was because we
went to church with the family members with whom we were staying -- and
they admitted that they went to that particular church not for the
"worship" but because of the friends they had made there.

Do you believe in the Trinity?
The word "Trinity" is a Latin word and there is not one single
word of Latin in the Bible. The Trinity came out of the
same Nicaean council that compiled the Bible and the Nicaean
Creed.
If you believe in the Trinity, then you are not
"sola scriptura" (the Bible Only). And you are trusting
the authority of the Ancient Church in its teachings.
Just as you are trusting their authority over what went
in the Bible.
Not everything Christians believe is in the Bible. This
one is though.
We Ancient Faith'ers have a long history of the asking
others for their prayers, whether they are in Heaven
or on Earth. The first time a saint prays for you, you
can never be dissuaded of their existence. Those in
heaven have a lot of access to us. As beloved Saint
Paul says, "love never ends" (1 Corinthians 13).
I personally have had several Saints pray for me. And
I have a personal relationship with one who chose me.
He has even spoken to me in English before. It gets
really interesting when Jesus joins the conversation.
And no saint is more approachable than Jesus. My
personal belief is that the Lord loves it when we
pray for others, not just ourselves.
Also notice I said "we". The Church Triumphant in
heaven and the Church Militant on Earth. "We".
We are not abandoned and forgotten by the Church
Triumphant.
Our communion in prayer with the saints is the
realization of the bond between Christians on
earth and the Heavenly Church. (Heb 12:22-23)
Asking a saint for their prayers is no different than
me asking you for your prayers. And, of course, it
is whatever you feel comfortable with.
Love never ends.
Yours in Christ,
--Todd
And another angel came, and stood before the altar,
having a golden censer; and there was given to him
much incense, that he should offer of the prayers
of all saints upon the golden altar, which is before
the throne of God. And the smoke of the incense of
the prayers of the saints ascended up before God
from the hand of the angel. (Rev 8: 3-4)

On the contrary... a word that describes something in the Bible
doesn't negate "solar scriptura".

The references you are referring to about the trinity
are also in the old testament. And I assure your that
Jews do not believe in the trinity.
The Nicaean Council was the one how cemented it in place
the concept of the Trinity so there would be no
misunderstandings, especially with all the heresies
running about.
The Bible did not exist for three centuries. We are also
told by the Bible to hold to the traditions the founders
(Apostles) taught us:
Therefore, brethren, stand fast and hold the
traditions which ye have been taught, whether
by word [i.e. oral tradition] or our epistle
-- II Thessalonians 2:15
I praise you brethren, that you remember me in
all things and hold fast to the traditions [paradoseis]
just as I delivered [paredoka, a verbal form of
paradosis] them to you"
--First Corinthians 11:2
If "solar scriptura" was correct, then we wouldn't have folks
going off on such tangents when they read the Bible.
"Let's all throw burning coals on our adversaries heads and
not call anyone Father, except our father in heaven. Or
Teacher for that matter."
Think anything got interpenetrated there? That is why we
need the traditions spoken of in the Bible (i.e the
authority of the Church) to make sure we know what things
are suppose to mean.

"Christian" and read the same Bible but deny the doctrine of the
Trinity: some see Father, Son and Holy Spirit as simply different names
for the same single "person"; others see them as time-differentiated
manifestations of God: formerly he was the Father, Jesus
revealed/manifested him as the Son, and now he is the Holy Spirit.
* The Nicene Creed was largely a response to the teachings of Arius, who
held that "the Son" is merely a created being -- the highest created
being, but nevertheless only a creation and not himself God. The
"Jehovah's Witnesses" are prominent modern heirs of Arius.

Protestant body.

It helps that my church wrote the Bible, well
"compiled" it. We did not write the Old Testament.
All of the writers in the new testament were member
of my church. We know what is suppose to be in it.

Hi Burford,

the early years outnumbers men by three to one.
And, the largest complaint wives have about their husbands
it that they don't listen to them. (Men's brains are wired
differently for speaking and listening.) What other religoun

Women's liberation is all very well, but you have to set boundaries, you
know. As you do with children.
At least, that's the Christian view.

It's good to see that I wife spanking by itself is not sinful. But as the

type of discipline"
There's some other really good advice:
If your wife is spending money against your wishes - this may require
confiscation of her credit cards and ATM cards.
If your wife is watching too much TV you could cancel the cable or satellite TV
and just have antenna service.
If your wife is un-submissive in the sexual arena and chronically denies your
sexual advances (without legitimate medical or psychological reasons for doing
so) then perhaps that upcoming trip you were going to take her on gets
canceled.
All good stuff
