The Santa Muerte religious movement is fundamentally incompatible with Roman Catholicism, and represents the most abhorrent form of religious syncretism. The figure of Santa Muerte directly undermines devotion to the Virgin Mary. It appropriates the structure of Roman Catholic rituals and devotions (Mass, baptism, rosary, votive candles, etc) and injects a poisonous, superstitious, magical and death-centered doctrine into it. It's a devotional abomination in the eyes of God. This is why it is associated with Satanism by the Catholic Church.

It is not properly equated with Satanism whatever your disagreements.

@frjohn413 6 месяцев назад

@@MultifaithMattersI did not claim it is equated with Satanism, I said it is associated with it, which it is.

@MultifaithMatters 6 месяцев назад

@@frjohn413It is not associatedwith any form of religious Satanism either. That's simply a mistake both in terms of classification and theology. We need to address proper concerns for syncretism without making such mistakes.

@frjohn413 6 месяцев назад

@@MultifaithMatters Satanism is more comprehensive and ancient than its modern iterations such as the school of Anton Lacey, etc. Jesus Christ himself condemned a spirit of satanism in Peter (Mk 8:33 and Mt 16:23). I am using the term broadly. We Catholics have very valid concerns for syncretism when we see Santa Muerte appropriate our practices. You claim to support the Great Commission, but on this front you support a movement that seeks to actually displace Jesus Christ with Santa Muerte. Shame on you, brother.

@frjohn413 6 месяцев назад

@@MultifaithMatters I am referring to a definition of Satanism that transcends modern religious iterations. Note how Jesus condemns a spirit of Satanism in Peter in the Gospels of Matthew and Mark. I also shared proper concerns for syncretism as they relate to Catholicism and Santa Muerte in my initial post, none of which you have addressed. Santa Muerte also displaces Jesus Christ as the focal point, which should concern you as someone who claims to support the Great Commission.
