And virtually every single predominantly Catholic country in this world is a third world hell hole.

Look at their economies and standard of living. And the superstition and syncretism rife in their religious practices.

The Protestant work ethic got it’s name from somewhere. There was never anything called the *Catholic work ethic*.

I’m sure Galileo as impressed with Catholicism’s contribution to science.

What was the role of the Catholic Church in building Western Civilization? >

Posted by a priest who rejects what Scripture commands and advocates, and was the norm in making America strong, charging instead that there is not "even a single positive benefit to spanking children and a near endless amount of horrible effects."

The Catholic Church’s impact on western civilization cannot be denied no matter what bitter anti-Catholics have to say about it. And going to the hoary Galileo cliché only makes their remarks more redundant. Dennis Prager once devoted an entire show to it.

The Catholic Church invented marriage. Before it, men owned women as they did cattle and goats.

Stefan Molyneux

Does she STILL ignore the bible?


Proverbs 13:24 NIV
Whoever spares the rod hates their children, but the one who loves their children is careful to discipline them.

Thanks for posting this. And this video is hugely complementary to the series that Dr. Thomas Woods did, which is still posted over at EWTN - Builder of Civilization.

Dr. Duke Pesta joins Stefan Molyneux to discuss the unspoken truth about the impact of the Catholic church on scientific inquiry, philosophy and Western Civilization overall.

NOW they tell me!!

Saying the Catholic Church built "western civilization" is like saying that America is a chrstian nation. It may be true so far as it goes, but neither claim--whether true or not--tells us that it is the one true religion.

When it comes to criteria for finding the one true religion, neither "western civilization" nor America figure into the equation.

Isa 66:1-2

66 This is what the Lord says:

"Heaven is my throne, and the earth is my footstool.
Where is the house you will build for me?
Where will my resting place be?
2 Has not my hand made all these things, and so they came into being?"
declares the Lord.

"This is the one I esteem: he who is humble and contrite in spirit,
and trembles at my word.
NIV

Universality? That's some very creative, accommodating, revisionism upon which to fabricate the assertion that the "Catholic Church built Western Civilization".

How universal was it  when Rome was fraudulently selling indulgences to the common people into whose language Scripture was NOT translated until Martin Luther did so?

American "Universality" (equality) emerges from our God-given right,  codified by constitutional providence, to be able to read His Word with eyes and free minds God created for that purpose - and, per the 1st and 2nd amendments, to be able to contradict the errors of human nature when it produces the self-worshiping, Fallible and Uninspired, state-established/establishing frauds who have always endeavored to assume dominion over the faith and lives of others.

 

"EDUCATE THE COMMON PEOPLE"
--
Thomas Jefferson

Moolinooy and his guest also conveniently leave out the historical facts regarding the Jesuit roots from which of Marxist Communism/collectivism grew.

BTW, since folks seem to be treating Molyneux’s work product as the Gospel truth lately, they might want to consider how works like the one under discussion in this thread [The Catholic Church Built Western Civilization] fit into the context of his “master piece”...

[The Story of Your Enslavement]
Stefan Molyneux
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xbp6umQT58A

...and what role the romanization of Christianity played in that process.
