Is Fundamentalism or Protestantism the worst enemy of the church in Christianity or is it her best friend?

Why can't Protestantism and Catholicism be ONE?

Top Ten Signs You're a Fundamentalist Christian

10 - You vigorously deny the existence of thousands of gods claimed by other religions, but feel outraged when someone denies the existence of yours.

9 - You feel insulted and "dehumanized" when scientists say that people evolved from other life forms, but you have no problem with the Biblical claim that we were created from dirt.

8 - You laugh at polytheists, but you have no problem believing in a Triune God.

7 - Your face turns purple when you hear of the "atrocities" attributed to Allah, but you don't even flinch when hearing about how God/Jehovah slaughtered all the babies of Egypt in "Exodus" and ordered the elimination of entire ethnic groups in "Joshua" including women, children, and trees!

6 - You laugh at Hindu beliefs that deify humans, and Greek claims about gods sleeping with women, but you have no problem believing that the Holy Spirit impregnated Mary, who then gave birth to a man-god who got killed, came back to life and then ascended into the sky.

5 - You are willing to spend your life looking for little loopholes in the scientifically established age of Earth (few billion years), but you find nothing wrong with believing dates recorded by Bronze Age tribesmen sitting in their tents and guessing that Earth is a few generations old.

4 - You believe that the entire population of this planet with the exception of those who share your beliefs -- though excluding those in all rival sects - will spend Eternity in an infinite Hell of Suffering. And yet consider your religion the most "tolerant" and "loving."


3 - While modern science, history, geology, biology, and physics have failed to convince you otherwise, some idiot rolling around on the floor speaking in "tongues" may be all the evidence you need to "prove" Christianity.

2 - You define 0.01% as a "high success rate" when it comes to answered prayers. You consider that to be evidence that prayer works. And you think that the remaining 99.99% FAILURE was simply the will of God.

1 - You actually know a lot less than many atheists and agnostics do about the Bible, Christianity, and church history - but still call yourself a Christian.

we are focusing on the truth and absolute truth itself.

i can make my own opinion but what about the truth i need and they need to know?

the truth can be easily manipulated my friend..to suit the needs of the seeker..if they found the truth but dli makaya tunlon tanan..then mamili nalang kng unsa na parts ang tunlun..mao btaw nai nahitabo sa council of nicea..how convenient..

Daghan na karon ang ni surface nga mga churches all stating strongly nga they are Bible-believers. Since the Bible is open to a lot of literal interpretations, daghan pod ang nagkalain laing teachings. These teachings have divided Christians that they are always in conflict with each other for example: Iglesia Ni Cristo vs. Ang Dating Daan og uban pa nga mga churches not only in the Philippines but all over the world.

Do you think these conflicts is a result of fundamentalism and too literal interpretation of the Bible? Is it the reason why Christians continue to divide themselves?

of course...and you see them everywhere bisag dire sa istorya...spreading their contempt to just about anyone and to well-meaning institutions that choose reason over fanaticism.

Malooy lang ko sa Christian Religion kay they are full of DIVISION. MULTIPLICATION of christian churches and sects are almost daily around the world. ADDITIONal members are needed to sustain these sects and churches. SUBTRACTION of members are numerous from other denominational groups who go convert to another religion!

^don't worry, its the quality of believers that count
