Why is Latin America leaving the Catholic Church and becoming Evangelical?

>Why is Latin America leaving the Catholic Church
Holy shit base-
> and becoming Evangelical?
Trading horse shit for cow shit. Wtf guys.

My family has always being Lutheran because muhh heritage (even tho most Germans who emigrate here where catholic).
But the poor people are more attracted to the american casino style of the "churches" (they are not churches, they are commercial rooms with loots of chairs), where someone yells and claim it is all work of the devil, and them get loads of money.

You can set garage churches every corner in any neighborhood, so they're more accesible.

Their selling point is "say i accept jesus and you'll be forgiven for anything", so people can sin as much they want as long as they give their tithe to the church and go regularly.

They focus on the Old Testament, they actually believe they are part of israel and completely ignore the teachings of Jesus, so they feel more powerful and more free to do whatever the fuck they want.

user is correct. It's a mixed bag, but they are normally reduced to educate poor people. However, there are some absolutely disgusting sects that just plainly exploit every last penny from their believers. The worst of the bunch:
Jehovas witnesses are just plainly cultists that segregate their members
(Brazilian) Universal Church. They rip off their faithful and prey on the old and dumb.
Evangelicals vary, usually the more charismatic they are the more they prey on the vulnerable
The only sort of based sect that i've seen is the LDS. But it creeps me out. Its like a plastic heaven.

Because poor people are fucking dumb

This is what a cult inside one of those new age christian churches looks like.

Thanks america...

Because the catholic church promotes poverty, idolatry and mediocrity that sided with the oligarchs to subjugate the lower classes

Has anyone thought about being a missionary? Just look at this video of a South American woman "possessed" by a viking demon youtube.com/watch?v=jHtS45qHbJM

The pastor is taking in money from these morons AND he gets to grope her. It's the best career in the world.

They tend to be more populist as well, their pastors read a couple of verses and tell anecdotes shitty people relate to for hours. Then they start playing pop rock with christians lyrics, and make everyone cry at their sorry lives with a ballad.

II grew Presbyterian and we all had to fake speaking in tongues

Last time i checked the catholic church sided with guerrillas and socialists to fight oligarchs.

In your country the pastors are also normally criminals?
How cringe it was?

South america is really a weird place. Where religious became communist leaders and totally outlaw atheism as part of communist.

is only partially truth
Poor people are even more conservative than the catholic church so they switch to evangelicalism because the evangelical church is more politically vocal against lgbt groups, gender identity, etc.

Yes they are. Often they are the local leader of the gang or his right hand man.

Poor people are schizos. They are the worst of the worst, hypocritical in every thing they do. They fuck left and right whoever they want, never give a single shit about the mandate of celibacy, yet they scorn family planning and insist their duty is to brith as many children as they can.

You can see all of this is the influence of the Old Testament on them. For some reason that's the only shit they read. I don't consider evangelicals as Christians, i consider them jews.

And often have relations with transsexual at the point where they come to your cult charge you for the services because you did not paid?

catholicism is dying, the representation of catholicism is progressive, so basically it's a "FUCK YOU" to catholicism right now
conservative 'til we die

Pretty cringe and I felt like God hated me when I was kid cause I thought I was the only one faking it

>Pope: hoarding wealth is bad
>OMG COMMUNIST BASTARD FUCK YOU FUCK YOU FUCK YOU
>Luther: lmao nigga anyone can read the bible and understand it perfectly because divine intervention, even a poor farmer who's barely literate can perfectly understand it
>OMMGGMGGGGM SO BAESD AND REDPILLED FUCK CATHOLIKEKCISM AM BECOMING A PRODDIE*forsakes his eternal soul*

I’m an Evangelical Christian, ama

do you pay the tithe?

Cringe

We are talking about the new age churches.
I grow as a Lutheran, and never saw any problems inside the church. The pastor was pretty chill and most of the time try to talk about fishing (he really love fishing).
>I felt like God hated me
I feel bad for you.

Same in the US. If ex-catholic were a religion, it would be the third largest relition in the US.

The thing is that Vatican II was the death-blow. Catholicism is now obsessed with being progressive, which has improved its standing with non-catholics but not with catholics. The church now offers nothing to those who seek doctrine, spiritual enlightenment, a correct way of living et cetera. So a lot of people leave, instead going to more conservative churches or societies like the Society of St. Pius (which Vatican II excommunicated, technically meaning that TradCaths... aren't catholic).

Evangelicals are opportunists who are more than willing to fill the hole by using a more "charismatic" approach.

stay mad, progressives

Latinos are more firey and pentecostal stuff like running around and yelling and stuff is more in sync with their culture

SSPX isn't the only tradcats though. Also the excommunication was lifted in 2009

There are tons of churches that provide services in the Tridentine Mass AND are in full communion with Rome.

The true reason why most people abandon Catholicism is most likely a mixture of the disillusion caused by the various pedophilia scandals and the relative rigidity of the church and the masses in comparison to the much more emotional and festive mood of Evangelical services.

Yeah but honestly not always 10% and not every week either. I belong to a fairly big church that does a lot of missionary work and work around our city (we run a homeless shelter and raise funds for diff charities) so a portion of the money goes to that while the rest goes to maintaining the church and paying the staff.

It'd be the fucking same desu. Religion is not our main problem in the Society We Live.

Which country has seen the most child rape's by the church?

cuz they believe that by paying a diezmo to enrich some pastor they'll go straight to heaven.My cunt is like 25% non-catholic christian at this point, but it is even more prevalent in central america and the caribbean

historically? probably France or Italy

They're not footfags.

Nothing about latin america is catholic other than very minor cultureCatgolic cultural i influence is very very dim and low

It varies by country. In Guatemala, nearly half the pop is evangelical due to the civil war. The catholic church was associated with gommies

What? You mean to tell me your pastor doesn't keep all the money while buying a new truck each week and a luxury house for every one of his lovers?

This is also true. The catholic church was associated with gommies, so people in the 90s left it to avoid getting killed. Now it's all about the money. Nothing is more profitable than a garage church.

It's just different and louder, that's enough to impress and atract ignorant poor people

What are they attempting to accomplish here?

This basically, evangelicalism is like feminism for conservarives, it tells them they don't have to be responsable for their actions or care about the consecuences because "Jesus died so sin all you want"

Was it? Guess I can go there

They are spinning for a new house.

The Catholic Church (at least in Mexico) is full of money laundering for Cartels, there's literally thousands of sexual abuse cases, and promote neoliberal parties that want to get rid of minimum wage and make Mexico the new China/Bangladesh. The only comfort they give to common people is that "God gave everyone a place" and other such justifications for unjust hierarchies and blatant inequalities.

In this light, Evangelical churches can position themselves as true lifechangers due to their anti-alcoholism programs and prosperity gospel schemes.

see
Same reason why Wahhabi shit seems to spread everywhere in the islamic world. American money goes a long way.

What is then?

Lack of education by far, only retards keep voting the same corrupt politicians

They don't want their children raped

Pope "hide yo kidz" Francis made us do it

Do you really have to wonder (((why)))? Evangelicals love Jews and think Israel is legit and for Jews because some USAfag made a Bible for this sole purpose.

Catholic priests are being mean to Latin Americans because they don't want people there worshipping the pagan slave nigger gods.
Benedict was quite clear about this and they chimped out.

we're going to savage what's left of your country after the Great Democrat Chimpout destroys it

>because they don't want people there worshipping the pagan slave nigger gods
>pagan

They want to dance and speak in tongues instead of falling asleep during ceremonies.

American Union is happening, and it's going to be wonderful.

Just the jesuit types not the Opus Dei types

Only Mormons spread.

US missionaries

Catholicism is dead in latin america, no one wanted in and its dead hopefully forever

They used to but then US-backed "death squads" started killing priests and nuns during the 80s so they switched sides. The Catholic Church has been crypto-socialist for decades as a result.

Wrong, heretic

>defying the mother of god herself to join some faggot protestant church
What the fuck is wrong with them?

Why the fuck do these fuckers speak in "tongues"? The book literally says they suddenly knew how to speak HUMAN languages to join the world through Jesus, a parallelism of Babylon in which they stopped talking the same language to break apart and go their own way. Afterwards the dudes literally go to india etc and establish their own church. Even mormonism is more credible in this context than a fatass babbling "RAPPALAPAPA PARAPPA THE RAPPER PALAPAPAPAPA"

At least in Chile it's:
High Class: Catholic
Middle Class: Agnostic/Atheist
Low Class: Evangelical

""""High""""" class catoholics are the worst

To remind us that bad things can become even worse.

-They weren't catholic in the first place
-Catholic authorities aren't teaching the doctrine properly
-Catholic authorities don't say the truth, being scared of the backlash.
-Catholicism has a bad press and is seen as boring, old, intolerant, protestants sects are "new".
-People need to be told what to do to get their shit together, and catholic priests are(mostyl)cowards and/or hate catholicism, so they won't forbid bad habits that damage the soul and the body.

>High Class: Catholic
Not necessarily, there are a fair amount of evangelicals between high class people

True

Also, these sects do missionary work, while catholicism abandoned this, only doing charity and maintaining it's hospitals and educational establishments.

Pretty much this. Also they constantly receive money from different sources, so they're constantly building new churches and things like that
