How interestingly ironic.
Protesting the misguided leadership of the RCC for recognizing the protesting the misguided leadership of the RCC 500 years earlier.
Do you not realize that faithful Catholics are now protesting against the same man and his revolt as those same faithful Catholics did 500 years ago?
There's nothing ironic about it.
Absolutely ironic.
Luther was a faithful Catholic protesting heretical teachings of RCC.
Your picture depicts faithful Catholics protesting the RCC, acting in heresy, remembering a faithful Catholic (Luther) protesting heretical teachings of RCC.
Are you currently in protest against Luther’s heretical - to you - teachings?
Shameful and sad.
Why, did he teach something heretical?
Depends on your beliefs and, ultimately your authority.
E.g., do you believe in the Real Presence?
Frankly speaking , no group has the right to pray the rosary
immediately before, during or after Church services unless prior permission has been granted.
I can see some point of order there, during Mass for instance, however it was an “ecumenical service” with a Protestant preacher.
Ah, you’re trying that trap. Heh. Luther made clear his view thereon, and I accept it as the best a human can understand & explain of that spiritual reality which is still beyond our full comprehension & articulation. And no, Luther did not accept “transubstantiation” as he wasn’t a cannibal.
I’m not sure if you’re agreeing with Luther the Real Presence or not? Or do you agree with Zwingli?
Their goal was disruption, for which they may be rightfully removed from the premises.
The right to disrupt includes the right of others to disrupt that disruption.
Now *you’re* being ironic.
I’m sure I’m not falling into the trap of arguing with you about points I have no interest in arguing with you about.
In this thread, I am only interested in the point of this thread:
the treatment of the faithful who protested the heresy of the RCC regarding
the treatment of the faithful who protested the heresy of the RCC regarding indulgences.
I see you get to pick what is heresy and what is the point of the thread.
That does somewhat illustrate my point, and provide some clue why you seem unwilling to to argue your position.
No, it was a photo of faithful Catholics protesting a protestant celebration of Reformation Sunday in a Catholic Church.
I do get to decide what I am going to talk about, yes, and if that’s on-topic for the thread then that’s OK.
Why, did the Protestants barge in and commandeer the facilities? oh my, I thought it was a scheduled event sanctioned by the RCC.
Of course you get to decide what you wish to discuss. And your choice is revealing as well.
As is your decision that the topic of the thread is “the treatment of the faithful who protested the heresy of the RCC regarding indulgences.”
I think that a bit of a personal twist in your discussion.
When do you discuss Luther’s heresy according to your authority? I’m assuming never.
