as opposed to protestants who refuse to confess anything (since they’re all free from guilt) and instead sing lame songs, preach a bunch of worldly garbage focused on the earthly life rather than the world to come, and read a bunch of poorly translated scriptures and then debate madly how they’re all self declared Popes and so they’re infailable in THEIR interpretation.

Hmmmm you'll have to let me know where you got this from, my Pastors take on Confession

Obviously we believe in Confession! and not the kind thats done in private and absolved by 10 rosaries

If you were to have an affair and go to him he would demand you go to your spouse and confess the sin to the person it was against! Christians are to confess to each other not some priest in an anonymous box.

instead sing lame songs, preach a bunch of worldly garbage focused on the earthly life rather than the world to come

Wow you have no experience in my church preaching on worldly things? Hell the fathers day service at our local Catholic service (I took my father) was about the Minnesota vikings and how the new priest knew some of them and was happy to be in Minnesota, at my Church is was deeply about Gods relation to us and how our families are to be a witness to his holiness!

and read a bunch of poorly translated scriptures

Yea cause the word was meant to be in a language nobody understands, lamp under a basket and all.

self declared Popes and so they’re infailable in THEIR interpretation.

Hmm I have never seen a pastor at my church claim infallibility, and I have never seen a member or elder claim anyone in the church is without failure. This is unlike the position of catholics who thing the pope is without error.

For shame Kawaii. If you're going to debate with people, so be it, but do not slander.

Please do discuss points with which you differ, and defend that which you consider true.... but this is not beneficial.

If anything I have said here is not according to the commands laid upon us by God, then please let me know.
