Calling your ideas "objective" and/or "truth".

Evangelicals ‘Crossing the Tiber’ to Catholicism

The_Vapour 0 points1 point 1 day ago* [-]

It is not accurate to say that Easter Church does not changes. The problem with Roman Catholicism is not the changes it has introduced per se, but the way (Magisterium) it introduce it, which tend to be unilateral. Easter Church consider that Protestanism emerge partly in reaction to it. On top of that, the way Western Catholicism split from its Easter Catholicism add much doubt to its authority as the Catholic/Universal Church.

If any protestant want to get back to something closest to the original form of Christianity, they should convert to Orthodox Catholic church rather than Roman Catholic Church.

Hey Reddit, any manga you can reccommend that is similar to Yokohama Kaidashi Kikou?

Check any manga published in "Afternoon".

Wrong. It is sold as cure for fevers and convulsion.

For me, my favourite is the soup commercial which played right after Anastasia Dualla blew her head off.

if BBC said 1in4 be non-white, it would sound racist

Although Hungarian communists loved the foreign currency Westerners brought, this 70s retro clip shows they warned their citizens not to be misled by capitalist glamour...

A comment by a Rusky. "Everything they told us about communism were lies. Unfortunately, everything they warned us about capitalism were true!".

Sure, why not? It is no different from giving discount for children. To make it easy, one could charge different price for different hight.

I found Nemo84's advocacy of fascism to be more offensive.

True. I should have mentioned that France has a history of exterminating minority culture.

Recently, Constitutional Council of France ruled that it would be unconstitutional to sign up to the Council of Europe’s European Charter for Regional or Minority Language.

If the state force you to look, speak and behave French, that is cultural fascism.

So why not force black or Arabs to paint their skin white. Inability to accept difference in race, culture or religion is a bigotry. Why French so culturally facist?

That failure should be blamed on French law enforcement, which allow lawlessness to prevail in ethnic slam. It sounds like blaming violent video games for prevalence of crimes.

You would, because, in principle, one is banned from displaying atheist conviction.

That argument would have sounded better if the law did not deliberately exempt Christian religious habit of wearing crucifix. The law is deliberately designed, in practice, to suppress non Christian religion. It does not stand on secular principle of neutrality at all.

It is designed specifically to let Christians do what they been doing while at the same time forcing Muslim to "behave".

Had the law inconvenienced majority religion, it wouldn't have passed.

Maybe it is time to accept that it is o.k. to differentiate/discriminate for the right reason. On average, woman drink less.

Once woman start to drink as much as man, economics would have eventually taken care of the differentiation in fees.

France denies citizenship to Muslim immigrant who failed to "assimilate into French society"

I notice that high percentage of non Anglo Saxon immigrants chose Anglicized first name for their kids. It is a subtle indication that you aren't a first class citizen unless you are a WASP

Yeah, but participating in Hindu religious ritual such as marriage ceremony would be deemed an explicit statement of disbelief as I'm quite sure it will involve plenty of idol worship.
