Do all historical figures posess superpowers?

Just like how historical spider-man existed, but the comic version didn’t, right?

Don’t do religion, kids.

The document will be seen by some more conservative Catholic as a win after years of feeling embattled during Pope Francis’s leadership

They’re feeling embattled after Francis paid the barest lipservice to LGBTQ people without actually doing anything.

What a joke these people are.

It didn’t, I just disagree.

Nice, I do like it when useful idiots identifiy rhemselves upfront, instead of me having to dig, thanks!

Who is “calling” and “not calling” the uncommitted movement?

Imagine not getting mad at a hate church.

Of wait, you don’t have to.

They are a hate church and/or a cult.

A few (of the many) red flags:

“We believe the Bible is God’s inerrant truth and it’s the foundation to everything we do.”

“The fact that we live in 21st century, it doesn’t change the message that God gave 2000 years ago”

“Crossroads wants to be a place where Christ-followers reproduce Christ-followers, leaders reproduce leaders and churches reproduce other churches.”

“We expect every person to be moving closer to reflecting the complete image of Christ in every area of life.”

“We believe that the Bible, composed of the sixty-six books of the Old and New Testament, is the inspired word of God and without error in the original writing.”

“Scripture is the final authority in all matters of faith and practice.”

They literally admit they’re cult in the FAQ page

Surprise, surprise, they’re doing tithing

If you check their (annual reports](…ctfassets.net/…/08-31-2023_Audited_Financial_Sta…), they have some $86+ million is assets and $6 million in cash(!)

The people who actually personally know this church say it. Their priest is giving transphobic sermons, and the SPLC listed them as a hate group.

From the article:

“At Crossroads, Tome says that the church is trying to walk the line between welcoming LGBTQ+ members and adhering to what he says are biblical traditions. Tome says that Crossroads does not affirm LGBTQ+ individuals in all ways.”

the more nuanced and relatively benign idea that everyone should be converted to Christianity and in that sense be a “Christian” nation while nominally maintaining separation of church and state.

Forcible conversion and theocracy is benign and nuanced to you?
