Based on the Pontiff cult of personality that defies scripture.

The Pope preaches the gospel of Climate change now.

First he calls climate deniers "stupid". Ever hear Jesus call someone stupid? No? Neither have I. Then he shifts gears and go after scientists who challenge the Climate cult teachings as being perverse, unlike gay marriage. Then he calls the lot of them fools.

Trouble with calling someone a fool is, the Bible warns us on using the word as it only uses the term for those who deny God's existence.

Matthew 5:22 But I tell you that anyone who is angry with a brother or sister will be subject to judgment. Again, anyone who says to a brother or sister, ‘Raca,’ is answerable to the court. And anyone who says, ‘You fool!’ will be in danger of the fire of hell.

The Pontiff is the Jim Jones of Catholicism. He wants us all to drink the cool air of Climate change and starve to death as farmers around the world are told not to grow as much food in order to reduce carbon emissions due to fertilizers, as the world starves and deals with higher inflation due to food shortages..
 
By my definition, a cult is following a cult of personality or group of people and not God. And since the Pontiff has zero charisma in my view, it is just people blindly following a group of people with a heretic as it's leader

Catholics follow Christ, not the Pope. My advice to the present Pope is that he should take note of how things turned out when Annas and Caiaphas began mixing politics with religion.

He is the leader of your church.

Get rid of him, or continue to be called a cult.

It would be akin to the followers of Jim Jones to remain in the church and turn a blind eye.

Either return to preaching the gospel or turn the Vatican into a Vap shop.

Any Martin Luthers out there?

Too bad you are so quick to call Catholicism a cult just because one member appears to be a heretic

There's some intellectual integrity for ya :rolleyes:

How does one get rid of a pope?

he's prepared to call the RCC a cult

I'm glad Votto is not my JUDGE

He doesn't even know what Catholicism is, so yeh... Nonetheless, he can say it is a cult which means Catholics go to Hell..

On the other hand, some of us have actually studied Church history, begun by

what?

Catholics

Here's why Catholicism isn't and can't be a cult. If you leave a cult, you are ostracized. But if you leave the Catholic Church, few will notice, and no one will confront you, let alone ostracize you. The beauty of Catholicism is it is there for the taking if you want it, but nobody will call you if you don't. Same with financial contributions to the church. Probably one will know if you don't donate. And if someone does know such as a church secretary, no one will ever say anything to you.
 
Rival religions attacking one another is as old as religion itself. Usually it's done by the insignificant religion against the dominant religion of the land. The dominant religion of the land doesn't need to attack the minor religion anymore than a human needs to squash an ant passing harmlessly by.

Don't know what you are babbling about.

Not all cults make it difficult to leave. That is no prerequisite.

One of the three major characteristics of cults is isolation from friends, families, and social networks. There is none of that in the Catholic Church. There is no manipulation or thought control. Everyone is easily free to come and go. That's the opposite of a cult.
Scientology, Mormonism, the Mafia, Communist governments? Those are cults.

The Baptist church up the road from me seems to be a bit of a cult. They have a popular pastor who does radio spots and all. One service, and I got this first hand, an employee of the church was called forward and reprimanded by the pastor in front of the entire congregation for some named transgression, and was publicly stripped of their duties. That would never happen in a Catholic Church.

Source please and exact words and complete context, stupid intrigant guy. "cult" is by the way "culture" - and culture is the basis of civilisation. To call Catholics "uncultivated" and "uncivilized" is more than only strange. And words are no weapons. People need to know something. For to know something it needs to learn. And if someone doesn't like to learn then he is not only stupid but will always be stupid.
