Does Mecca insist on this:"COMMUNION WITH MECCA?"
Absolutely not. Yet the Muslim world is tied together
around Mecca, yet independent from it at the same.
Why is that the Vatican muddles in other states policies
under the guise of Church policies or canon Law or freedom of religion?
Why does the Vatican lead people to believe that the Roman Curia is the
universal Church?
Did the levites claimed to be the whole Israel just because they were
mandated by God to offer sacrifice on behalf of the nation of Israel?
Did the levites want to have their says in other nations social
policies just because some levites or some israelites live in those nations?
The road to peace is the death of the vatican.

I dunno. Maybe we should examine the existence of the Roman Catholic church.
Or maybe you could ask Pope John Paul Antichrist himself.

After islam, Catholicism is the worst scourge ever on mankind.  Catholicism
strongly pressures it's followers to breed as many children as possible,
regardless of the family's ability to support them.  This leads to poverty
and misery wherever Catholicism is the dominant religion.  And the asinine
concept of celibacy leads many priests to become faggots and child
molesters.  And these are the same people normal married people go to for
guidance???

Imagine how much better the world would be if so many souls were not
enslaved under these primitive, evil institutions.

The only possible solution is the de-centralization of the Roman Curia
so as to give to any given nation its own Curia with the authority
to advise the government on social policies issues.
No need to consult Rome.

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

Per David B. Barrett in World Christian
Encyclopedia, published by Oxford
University Press, "within Christianity,
he counts 33,830 denominations"

And from the Protestant Park Street
Church Pulpit we have this quote:

"The most recent edition of the World

there are now about 3,400,000 churches
worldwide which represent more than
33,000 distinct Christian denominations,
and that the number of denominations

The separation of Church and state breeds 40,000 denominations not
decentralization. Constantine was faced with the same issues
of thousand heresies, but he was smart enough to ask the bishops to
harmonize their viws and doctine
hence the different councils in the Roman Empire:
One Nation, One Church, One faith.
On the other hand what american constitutional writers did by
separating
Church and state was quiete the opposite.This explains the 40,000
denominations
you talk about.
Equating separation of Church
and State with freedom of religion was an error.
Decentralization or autocephalous Church has not
been tried yet.

Pick any mainline Protestant denomination and see what THAT leads to. The
Catholic Church survives intact for 2,000 years, yet in just 500 years the
Reformation has separated hundreds of millions of Christians from the
Church and splintered what sects grew out of it into the tens of thousands.  

Great frikkin' idea.  Apparently you ARE so easily duped.

Because the reformation did not know any better.
Why did Mohammad successed where Martin Luther failed?
Because Mohammad knew how to reconcile Christ and State. Read his
Catechese also known as the Qur'an.
Just because you know you are sick does not mean that you can cure
the ailement. Martin Luther knew that papacy was corrupt but he did not
know what State and Christ relation looks like from God's perpective,
otherwise there would not be 400,0000 denominations today.
The best prostestation against papacy and Catholicism is Islam.
If anyone tells you that the system put in place by papacy was what God meant
for nations around the world, he is a liar.
If anyoane tells you that the world was meant
to be religiously goeverned from Rome, he is
a liar.
Just ask him why the first centuries papacy did not try to
convert China or Persia or India?

You know why, because freedom of religion has been manipulated by poticians.
Buy If each head of State did what Constantine had done long ago, things
would have been different.

Why don't you go head and enlighten me on this?
And not only on this but also on the connection between
Catholicism and Rome.

Futile attemp at enlightening a stump follows:

First, Mecca is one of three holy sites in Islam.  It contains the
holiest shrine in Islam.  It is therefore the destination for millions
of Muslims for their annual pilgrimage.  Muslims pray five times a day
facing Mecca and the shrine.

Second, there is no universal Islamic council or ruling body located
in Mecca.

Third, the only connection between the RCC and Rome is the Vatican
city-state  is surrounded by the city of Rome.

Now why did you ask about the connection between Rome and the Catholic
Church when in your first idiodic post you never mentioned any such
thing?

I NEVER HEARD ABOUT COMMUNION WITH MECCA AT ALL COST.

And this is what I praised. Less politics imposed on other nations as
religion. Mecca would never interfere in what is going on elsewhere.
On the other hand Vatican wants a preferential treantment of Catholics
around the world. When egyptians catholics fight against egyptians
Muslims, it is none of Vatican business because they are all egyptians
able to put national interest before doctrinal difference.

When Vatican asks catholics not to marry Muslims, it is making a political
decision disguised as religious one. Marriage is also a civil matter and
Vatican should have no say about what is going elsewhere specially
in countries where people makes no difference between politics and religion

Mecca is just a city.  Do you fear Chicago or Tampa imposing politics
on others?

So peaceful people have no business trying to stop a war because that
war is somewhere else?

Perhaps the RCC fears difficulties between spouces in mixed marriages.
Perhaps they have some expertise in the matter.

Marriage is also a civil matter and

In those countries where politics and religion are mixed, theocracies,
the Vatican can and should speakup to preserve the rights of religious
and political minorities, especially if those minorities include
Catholics.

The Vatican is a state and should mind its own business like any other state.
You might be thinking that the Roman Curia is the Church.
It ain't. It is a temporal power disguising itself as
THE CHURCH in order to
fool the non-initiates. Mohammad was not fooled as it Catechese also
known as the Qur'an state clearly.

I think that we all agree in alt.history that religion of any
denomination should stay the hell out of politics and interference
with government. In the US, any religious organization that lobbies,
donates or in any other way tries to influence the government
should automatically become a corporation with all the tax libilites
thereof.

The USA doesn't mind its own business, why should The Vatican?  Great
Britian doesn't either and the head of its official church, Queen
Elizebeth II also is head of the government.

Life must be hard for you, being so clueless and showing it to the

It is you who are clueless for making my point without knowing it.
Vatican is temporal power.
Great Britain or America move forward bare faced. The Vatican puts on
mask, this is where the differences are.
We are here to combat any kind of imperialism, be it vaticanus and
it numerous celibat agents that it send around the world in contradiction
with local requirements and values for a healthy society.

I wonder where you get this idea from? I never stated that.
But anyway you would want to research the history of the Roman Curia
since the time of Caesar. Maybe you will understand why the bishop of Rome
want to rule the world from Rome.

Probably from you.  You seem to interchange Rome and the Vatican and
the RRC on a whim.  I can't follow what you write because you keep
changing your terms.

I am not here to educate you but to exchange with you.
That said, I assume that you can follow and keep up with me when I use
Vatican, Roman Curia and Rome.
Vatican is the nowadays state of the celibats.
Roman Curia is the body which assists papacy in the administration
of affairs of the Catholic Church. Roman Curia is a pre-Christian term.
Rome is the imperial capital of the Roman Empire and the centre of Authority.
I used Rome in its imperial context and not as the capital of Italy.
From Rome to Vatican and From the former Roman Curia to the present one,
there is too much to say. Now, where does the Church of Jesus fits in this?

The Church of Jesus Christ is the Roman Catholic Church.  The RRC is
seated at The Vatican.  The RRC is led by the Pope, currently John
Paul II.  The Roman curia is the administrative arm of the RRC.

The Roman Empire fell over 1200 years ago.  Imperial Rome does not
exist anymore.  Mussolini tried to re-establish Empirial Rome but
failed in 1945.

But its national Church still exists selling itself as the universal Church
