@KyrieEleison46 As you think yourself a Christian, it would be of profit to you to read the Gospel. And realize that Christ often used pagans & non-believers as positive role models in his teachings. That He despised those whose 'faith' was in perfunctory externals, but were hollow inside.
The only ppl condemned by Christ were the leaders of organized religion & their blind followers.
Not atheists, most of whom are driven away from God by 'the pious ones'.
@KyrieEleison46 The first ppl to whom God manifested Himself as the newborn Christ were shepherds, considered 'unbelievers'. Then the Magi, who were pagans. The Good Samaritan was a 'non-believer' who lived the Gospel. The Centurian, whose child was healed by Him was a pagan. Christ fed multitudes, many of whom were unbelievers.
Salvation is not the exclusive priiledge of Catholics, nor of any denomination. It is for 'men of good will' who serve God instinctively, not for show.
If each of us is a 'temple of God' (which is true, as per Scripture) then why should I go to church & give money to you? Christ, whose words you quote also said: "i desire mercy & not sacrifice", yet I see no mercy in your or your bishops.
Thus if God desires mercy, should I not take that money I was going to put in your pocket & give it to the poor? That would be living the Gospel, after all.....
Did you know that the bible values females as ~50% of the value of men. That females are just a second thought in gawds head(Clergy head); Made only to breed more faith-heads for cult X
@KyrieEleison46 Always be prepared to give an answer to everyone who asks you to give the reason for the hope that you have. But do this with gentleness and respect, keeping a clear conscience, so that those who speak maliciously against your good behavior in Christ may be ashamed of their slander. 1 Peter 3: 15-16

@KyrieEleison46 Speaking up for the truth of the teaching of Christis not 'spamming'.
What part of the Gospel is confusing to you?

@KyrieEleison46 The words 'humility' & 'kindness' have no association with Mr. Ratzinger, as he is the very antithesis of them.

@MisterDoctorE Saying God is a delusion makes you could never have existed. You are condemning yourself.
