This is what being based looks like.

That's what being in a cult looks like. I'd still rather be on team Jesus than team commie though.
It’s not a cult if it’s based on logic and reason. The ONLY reason I am still a catholic is because every part of the faith is based on logic and reason as much as faith and tradition. The problem is your average Catholic Church doesn’t teach that these days, you really have to go to the traditional circles to find the truth.
I see a bunch of ceremonial garb and objects based off of tradition, not logic and reason.
The real potency of Christian ideas has been shrouded for a while and exchanged for sheep-like behaviour.
But isn’t tradition important? How else could we be certain of the integrity of the Church if not for tradition? Jesus Christ founded the Catholic Church through the apostles and made Peter the head of that Church ie, the first Pope. In this action He created a structure to maintain the revelation and teachings He came to teach us, through the ages. The objects you refer to there are because Christ being God is King of all things, the object being carried by the priest is called a monstrance, it is the vessel in which the consecrated Host, God truly present in physical form under the appearance of bread and wine, is carried for procession. Does not the procession of a King warrant beautiful vestments, an entourage, a standard? Seems pretty reasonable to me given the reality of the situation which is certainly lost on many of the bystanders in this video.
I agree though that since 1962 there has been a real watering down of the Catholic faith. This is why I say traditional Catholic mass centers are the places to go if one wants to learn the real Catholic faith.
That's not true. It is part of your mythology. Not based out of reason.
Things like the Eucharist may very well have been a potent psychoactive drink in it's origin taken from the Greek Eleusinian Mysteries, but now you're just consuming a placebo.
To say you are actually drinking and eating God is absurd and NOT based off of logic and reason.
