So when my priest raped me and the church protected him, that was an example of the ethical views and compassion and respect for human dignity you're talking about?

I guess I always have more to learn from this amazing institution, like how I'm an abomination for being queer.

[–] JangleJack@lemmy.world 2 points 11 hours ago

I am not here to defend that institution at all.

I am sorry you had gone through that experience. The only church that illuminates at all is the one we can set on fire :')

PS. This thread can easily spin on another reiteration of the arguments around "separating the art from the artist". That text on AI may have a certain sympathy to some.. I haven't read it. After this post, I thought "maybe I should?". Thanks to your comment I got centered back in my perspective: "nah. the pope can say whatever he wants to. I won't be his supporter nor audience."

you are not whoever told you this was doing the work of Satan

all of us are God's creations, and God doesnt make mistakes

your sins do not define you, the crucifixion set you free of them. Have faith in Christ.

And may I ask for your diocese or archdiocese? Have you reported him to the police yet? I am incredibly sorry that happened to you

I'm sure you meant well, but "have faith in Christ" is not an appropriate thing to say to someone that was assaulted by their priest.

The Pope (yes this one your precious Leo) calls me an abomination because I have had bottom surgery.

when has he said that?
