This may not be typical of all Pentecostals, but my grandfather (a member of AOG) called them "demon worshiping catholics" and forbade my father to get a degree at their local college (at the time the only college within 100 miles of where they lived), thus preventing my dad from becoming a pharmacist.
I don't think one can speak about practices. Pentecostals are not bound by a liturgical order. If they feel the service must go in another direction, they do that.
No, Catholics are not obligated to have children. They feel if it is God's will, then it will happen. Marrying an Atheist won't make any difference because they will still have their own beliefs.
Communication with God plays a central role in my spiritual beliefs and practices. It involves prayer, meditation, and seeking guidance and comfort from a higher power. This connection helps me feel supported, find meaning in life, and cultivate a sense of peace and purpose.
Many people view the history of the Catholic Church, combined with much apparent hypocrisy (the priest-paedophile scandals, the wealth of the church which it maintains despite its charitous message) as a good reason not to trust it. Additionally, many are members of other religious groups which - either by nature or by history - have reason to hate Catholics.
The concept of catharsis in modern religious practices and beliefs involves the idea of emotional purification and release. Many religions incorporate rituals and practices that allow individuals to express and process their emotions, leading to a sense of spiritual cleansing and renewal. This process can help individuals feel a sense of relief, healing, and connection to their faith.
People do not hate Catholics. Catholics are the most peaceful and the peace loving people in the flock. Religions of other sects feel insecure as Roman Catholic Religion has maximum number of followers, so this has created a hatred among them. EDIT: The Roman Catholic religion does NOT have a maximum number of followers. No one that wants to join the Catholic Church is excluded.
The Roman Catholics were strongly opposed to some of the practices of the Byzantine Church, and vice versa. This tension resulted in the Great Schism, in which the Western and Eastern Church split.
The Catholic Church does not discriminate against non-Catholics. However, there is still much intolerance of Catholics by non-Catholics throughout the world as evidenced by this question. I have been a Catholic all my 67 years and have never heard a single word from a member of the Catholic clergy against non-Catholics. Catholics are secure in their faith and feel no need to criticize others who are not secure in their own beliefs. However, today, alone, I have read at least 20 new questions in this category that all have an anti-Catholic tone.
A benevolent god is important in many religions because it represents a source of love, compassion, and guidance for believers. This concept helps followers feel supported, cared for, and hopeful in their lives, fostering a sense of connection and purpose in their religious practices.
Catholics use sacramentals to become closer to God, Sacramentals are also used to help us feel safe Hope i helped you!
they feel like they should go to paris
.Answer from a CatholicYou would need to ask a specific question, like "how did Catholics treat protestants in Germany in the sixteenth century, and even then, I don't think you would get very good answers. Most of the writing we have from that time is kind of slanted. Now, if you want to know what Catholics feel about protestants in the late twentieth century in the United States, I might be able to help on that one.
