indulgences.

the state feeds them kickbacks, the church now has to profit from secular population to maintain the ill gotten gains it ammassed when there was a controlled population.

The Catholic church is one of the most sinful entities in history. Disgusting and repulsive to its rotten core.

Choose! Serve God and be free of this sinful institution or serve 'Mammon' - serve the abomination


The choice is yours.

Some days ago in italy the government passed a law that will discharge vatican from paying a new emergency tax that we poor people are forced to pay to "save" italy from bankruptcy. Also we italian people are forced by law to pay vatican 1 billion of euros each year. So please mr. pope SHUT THE FUCK UP at least.

The pope is such a hypocrite.

Perhaps we should look to how our Lord describes him and his ilk...

"Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye pay tithe of mint and anise and cummin, and have omitted the weightier matters of the law, judgment, mercy, and faith: these ought ye to have done, and not to leave the other undone.
Ye blind guides, which strain at a gnat, and swallow a camel.
Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye make clean the outside of the cup and of the platter, but within they are full of extortion and excess.
Thou blind Pharisee, cleanse first that which is within the cup and platter, that the outside of them may be clean also.
Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye are like unto whited sepulchres, which indeed appear beautiful outward, but are within full of dead men's bones, and of all corruption.
Even so ye also outwardly appear righteous unto men, but within ye are full of hypocrisy and iniquity.
Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! because ye build the tombs of the prophets, and garnish the sepulchres of the righteous, And say, If we had been in the days of our fathers, we would not have been partakers with them in the blood of the prophets.
Wherefore ye be witnesses unto yourselves, that ye are the children of them which killed the prophets.
Fill ye up then the measure of your fathers! Ye serpents, ye generation of vipers, how can ye escape the damnation of hell?"


And for the record, the scribes and pharisees were the religious leaders of the day.
Apt, no? it fits the so called churches of today so well...

Re: Catholic Church says, "Path To Heaven means pay them TAXES"
"In its decree, the bishops' conference said the tax was designed to compensate for state seizures of church property. The decree said the right to a "civil law withdrawal" ensured "no one is led to church membership against their will."

"Conscious dissociation from the church by public act is a grave offense against the church community," the decree said.

"Whoever declares their withdrawal for whatever reason before the responsible civil authority always violates their duty to preserve a link with the church, as well as their duty to make a financial contribution so the church can fulfill its tasks."

My first reaction was wtf?! but I can see the point,
the Church exists within a world that requires money to accomplish anything, it doesn't fall down from the skies, or appear with magic.
If you are a member, then you have duties to fulfill.

I'd like to think State and Church would be better off being kept separate, but since this isn't the case in Germany, the Church has to act to ensure her continuity.

State seizures of Church property?
What is going on with that?

Re: Catholic Church says, "Path To Heaven means pay them TAXES"
Everything cost money including running a church, and the Catholic church has been losing money and followers since the sex scandals. The reason for this tax is that it funds German kindergarten, housing and food for the poor, the homeless and the elderly. When people stop giving and just sit in church week after week, it negates the very premise of the church which is to help your fellow man in need. So maybe their stance is if you don't want to give to help others ...stop taking from us. I agree it is a bit extreme...but maybe their last option.

Yes.

"A total of 126,488 Catholics asked to stop paying the membership tax and be removed from registers in the 27 German dioceses during 2011, according to the bishops' conference. In 2010, some 180,000 Catholics took the same step."

If God is spiritual, then His church must be spiritual, not this abomination called the Catholic Church.

The RCC is totally anti-Christ, putting itself in the place of God showing that the church is God.

the Vatican was built on top of

Some say that there are still

Basements which lead to
the old Temple of Janus for human

And it happened LONG before 1963.

Wake up and smell the roses:



"She is silently growing into power. Her doctrines are exerting their influence in legislative halls, in the churches, and in the hearts of men. She is piling up her lofty and massive structures, in the secret recesses of which her former persecutions will be repeated. Stealthily and unsuspectingly she is strengthening her forces to further her own ends when the time shall come for her to strike. All that she desires is vantage-ground, and this is already being given her. We shall soon see and shall feel what the purpose of the Roman element is. Whoever shall believe and obey the Word of God will thereby incur reproach and persecution."
