Yes it is and yes they do.

Also, I probably eat more Mexican dishes than any other regional/ethnic cuisine but I can't say it's the best because there's just so many awesome dishes from other places. Like sushi or pasties or Swedish meatballs or falafel.

It's a very complicated topic, but at the simplest level it refers to whether you were born before or after the late-'80s-early-'90s. Since the Catholics have been around since at least the '60s, they fall firmly in the premillenial category. The primary theological consequence of this is that they do not spread avocado on the communion wafer.

Premillenialism is the belief that Christ would return and set up a kingdom on earth for a thousand years. It is more often called Chiliasm and was condemned at Ephesus in 431, so Catholics cannot believe it.

I've never heard of postmillenialism.

Edit: seems like Hitler was fond of millenialism, what with a thousand year reign and all that.

Without looking a lot of stuff up, the "Millennium" is a 1000-year reign of Christ on Earth prior to Judgment Day. "Premillennials" believe the world is going to be poo poo until Christ appears and ushers in The Millennium himself. Postmillennials think that we have to make the world a decent place first before Christ will show up for The Millennium.

It's mostly Protestant stuff so I have no idea where the Catholic Church stands on it.

quote:

Premillennialism, in Christian eschatology, is the belief that Jesus will physically return to the earth (the Second Coming) before the Millennium, a literal thousand-year golden age of peace. The doctrine is called "premillennialism" because it holds that Jesus' physical return to earth will occur prior to the inauguration of the Millennium.
...
In Christian end-times theology (eschatology), postmillennialism is an interpretation of chapter 20 of the Book of Revelation which sees Christ's second coming as occurring after (Latin post-) the "Millennium", a Golden Age in which Christian ethics prosper.[1] The term subsumes several similar views of the end times, and it stands in contrast to premillennialism and, to a lesser extent, amillennialism
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Premillennialism
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Postmillennialism

quote:

An approach which is more common in the Catholic Church and finds support with the great St. Augustine, among others, is that the 1,000 year reign represents the period of the life of the Church, however long that may be, which extends from the establishment of the Church on Pentecost (see Acts) until the end of the world as we know it and return of Christ. In other words, we are living in the millenium or 1,000 year period NOW.
...
My own instinct, at least for the present, is to go with the Augustine tradition and regard the present as the period in which Satan has been chained. In other words, I do not expect some 1,000 year period which we have not yet experienced in any way. In fact, the Catholic Church rejects any interpretation which advocates some reign of Christ here on earth other than that of the Church. We are in the final stage of salvation history, with only the final coming of our Lord yet remaining for its full realization. Most especially, Catholics should not be misled by any belief that Christ will return prior to the final coming as part of a 1,000 year reign here on earth.

quote:

St. Augustine was for a time, as he himself testifies (City of God XX.7), a pronounced champion of millenarianism; but he places the millennium after the universal resurrection and regards it in a more spiritual light (Sermo, CCLIX). When, however, he accepted the doctrine of only one universal resurrection and a final judgment immediately following, he could no longer cling to the principal tenet of early chiliasm. St. Augustine finally held to the conviction that there will be no millennium. The struggle between Christ and His saints on the one hand and the wicked world and Satan on the other, is waged in the Church on earth; so the great Doctor describes it in his work De Civitate Dei. In the same book he gives us an allegorical explanation of Chapter 20 of the Apocalypse. The first resurrection, of which this chapter treats, he tells us, refers to the spiritual rebirth in baptism; the sabbath of one thousand years after the six thousand years of history is the whole of eternal life — or in other words, the number one thousand is intended to express perfection, and the last space of one thousand years must be understood as referring to the end of the world; at all events, the kingdom of Christ, of which the Apocalypse speaks, can only be applied to the Church (City of God XX.5-7). This explanation of the illustrious Doctor was adopted by succeeding Western theologians, and millenarianism in its earlier shape no longer received support.
