Credo in Deum Posted March 26, 2015 Share Posted March 26, 2015 In math there is always more than 1 way to answer a question. And then as far as history class goes good luck! The truth there only depends on who wrote the book youre getting tested on or even the teacher themself so the answers are arbitrary and rather meaningless. Its interesting how much you learn the more sources you get. If you rely on 1 source for all your information, youll be pigeon holed into a very narrow neck of whatever particular bias that person has. The best way to discover truth is to sample as much as possible...see where the consensus agrees and disagrees. Don't mistake different paths with different answers. Sure there maybe different paths, however, if they do not lead to the same answer then they should be discarded. Within Catholicsm there are different paths to the same answer hence why we have Easten and Western Rites. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anomaly Posted March 26, 2015 Share Posted March 26, 2015 No Catholic should be surprised though to find this out since this method is not contrary to the nature of truth. We know this if we've ever taken a test in school. There are right answers and there are wrong answers, true and false. Do we point at our science teachers and math teachers as being intolerant because they give us an F when we get the answer wrong? Do we call them bigots for not allowing us "freedom of thought" becuse they do not hold true and false as being equal to each other? No, we do not. We thank them for their correction. We submit our understanding to theirs because we acknowledge them as teachers of truth. Any Catholic that believes their religion to be the truth but denies it the authority to enforce the truth is being just as unreasonble as a student who denies their teacher the authority to grade their test. Any Catholic that believes their religion to be the truth but wants it to be held on equal footing with other religions is indifferent to truth. LOL. I am not Catholic. And chuckles about calling Catholicism an undeniable truth as if that is just something that is observable and apparent as a math equation. Two different categories of "truth". Then what need of faith is there? What need of free will and willing assent by man? All that is required is Catholic authorities to coerce and dictate proper behavior because, duh, Catholic authorities are always clear, correct, and infallible in all things. Catholic State Rulers should squash any questioning or behaviors that they may deem as not being conducive to proper Catholicism in matters religious and civil. Other "divinely inspired" religions and ideologies have been working for that for eons. Good luck with that. As with the current ISIS, destruction of human society and developed knowledge is they way to dumb down humanity and enslave them to ignorant submission.

CrossCuT Posted March 26, 2015 Share Posted March 26, 2015 Didnt God give us a free will to choose him anyway? So I dont see Catholics have the right to force people to choose God by enacting some Catholic State anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
