I like his rap.

"Fun"? I don't know about that. But it's a well-known fact within my own Catholic teaching upbringing that the concept of "hell" was created more in the Middle Ages, much like the concept that priests should be celibate.

It's fun to hear a priest say that the church is all about controlling the population. I don't know why that would surprise anyone, but admitting it is amusing.

Religion, politics -- not much of a difference there.

It's no wonder why Christ was viewed as a political threat by the Romans.

He was an arrogant provocateur and the Romans saw right through the "humble servant" crap

Great video, certainly didnt expect to see priest speaking like that

Unfortunately the religious literalists miss out on one of the more enlightening historical stories behind their faith.

John the Baptist was the Che Guevara of his time.

say what?

It's not just me, Christopher Roper, and the Bolivians who think that.

I am seeing the religion section is having more topics than other football related threads!

Just wait for the offseason. Everyone is going to go at each other's throats for 3 months, the transfer threads will bloat, and each of us will spend at least a few weeks banned around here.

I can see that party has already started.

So this guy is still a Christian despite these beliefs and not only that he's also spreading his ideology to his followers.

I don't understand how this happens in Christianity tbh. Every now and again there is a new 'sect' in Christianity but that's not what I don't understand it's the fact that they don't really seem to justify their split through their interpretation of the Bible.

He's just being critical of these fundamentalists, he belongs to something called liberal Christianity.

What do you mean they don't?

Or perhaps he's being critical of the fundamentals of the religion, which is why asked that question.

What do you mean they don't?

How do certain sects justify allowing gay members? How do certain sects justify gay priests? How do certain sects justify female ministers? How does this guy justify any of what he said?

I'm not expert in Christianity, but most of these new 'changes' that we see in the religion are, as far as I know, explicitly not allowed in the religion.

I'm genuinely asking here, I don't have the answer to any of them.

Are you saying there is a sentence in the bible that says women cannot be priests? I doubt that. But I have a crazy theory. You know what? Over the ages men have dominated women. Men have run religion. Men decided women cannot be priests.

This may be unorthodox for you, but that's a very scripture-centric viewpoint. I mean, take the Mormons -- those guys produced their faith on an auxiliary lot of erasable metal plates.

Which is also Mormons and Jehovah's Witnesses are seen as 'out there' religious sects.

Mormons have their own book in addition to the bible so I think they sort of escape having to justify their ideology from the Bible.

Dude, you don't have to justify anything in religion. You just make up stuff that sounds good.
