Does God really care about all this shit? You all worship Christ right? So why does all this semantic nerd bullshit even matter? Just let the big man sort it out. You say he's very forgiving anyway.

Think about how all of this is supposed to work on the individual human level, with people interacting with each other, especially in premodern times. Stop playing map painting games they aren't an accurate representation of reality.

The average retard in premodern times didnt have the level of education required to read and understand the Bible. They just did what their pastor/priest said. Their knowledge of Christianity starts and ends with "Christ is King". Everything else was meaningless.

>Does God really care about all this shit?
To a degree, yes.
>You all worship Christ right? So why does all this semantic nerd bullshit even matter?
It's rarely just semantics. The various practices are expressions of Christ's teachings. And many of the teachings are participative, as in that you get them when you practice and physically engage in a proper way as opposed to learning them from a book as an explicitly verablized idea. If you skew the expressions too much towards whatever you find personally sensible or culturally appropriate, you are essentially cutting away ways in which you can understand Christ. And myself personally, I need all the understanding I can get...
>You say he's very forgiving anyway.
He is. And when he comes back he's going to mostly ask "did you feed the poor and dress the naked" as far as I remember from Matthew 25. But if you received a letter from your loved one, would you just get ChatGPT to summarize the actionable points? Would you have an editor re-write the letter into something more in-line with the culture? Or would you read every word with care and joy?

God cares deeply about the idolatry part yes

>To a degree, yes
Whats the lowest and highest degree of dissenting views here? Doesn't seem like there's a clear line between "it's cool he won't mind" and "you're going to hell".

Protestants worship Israel and race though.

Which one of the reformers did this?

Would you also calculate exactly how much you can break your lover's heart before they leave? You don't get degrees and clear lines. It's not how relationships work.

just a brief overview how Christcucks lost to lgbt rights.

>gay people: we want rights
>Protestants: we dont like homos
>Catholics: we dont like homos either
>Protestants: get the fuck away from me you stupid infant baptism good works salvation faggot
>Catholics: *wips out the catechism*
>gay people: lol we just got gay marriage passed in every christian country


congrats on this christcucks.

Yes. Women are socially retarded and easy to manipulate. This is backed by data regarding abusive relationships. Most just don't care. It doesn't matter anyway, because that's not really analogous to the question.

It's not that simple. But yes, God likely cares more about the heart, and less about the details.
