I am an atheist to preface so assume no bias. Hot take : Protestant Reformation is the most detrimental historical event to humanity EVER! By extension Martin Luther is the most influential person of all time and Protestant thought has th most consequence

Man oh man. You ARE not a tradcath you ARE a post liberal. Please DM if you want further discussion. It is the future ideology that captures both of our viewpoints without the inherent contradictions. Would love to discuss if you wish.

Still applies. I should’ve known tho lol too specific of a political descriptor for it not to be your own viewpoint lol. Still we on same team to what extent that’s the debate I think.

Real it was a dead giveaway. I just think SocCath or ComCath would invite wayyyy too many arguments not related to Martin Luther. Why do you dislike Luther (outside of the Antisemitism) and the Reformation?

First off Luther is more Catholic than 99% of living people today even our pope (strange I know) but his reorientation of authority from the church to each man has enabled an amount of freedom (tolerable and even good at first) that is now destructive and erodes all moral standards. Western society no longer shares morality. You can imagine where that may lead and is leading. Post liberalism calls for the constraint of freedom insofar as man can no longer create his own morality. I agree with.

2) as an atheist I see the human condition as one which does enable transvaluation, but I see transvaluation as eroding all things I hold dear and value myself therefore it must be stopped.

Are you aware of post liberalism? Really think it’s important for people like us that share a similar idea to unite under the necessary umbrella term just for efficiency purposes

I am also VERY sympathetic to the liberation theology Catholic cause - I am a socialist lol. I know very crazy views but they are compatible I promise
