Picture of A wildlife photographer marked "The rest of the church" taking pictures out of the frame towards a text marked "Women getting abortions" While prominently in the backgrounds there are two rhinos fucking, the fucker is marked "Priests" and the fuckee "Children"
Yeah, I mean, they care about it....when it happens to someone they know.
It's much more important to concentrate on keeping white men, or....other color men...I guess...at the top of the food chain. Can't have any of them uppity women thinking they can be a man now, ya hear? What happened to the good o'le Trad wife? There was respect in that there profession.
No....too good for the modern woman.
It's tragic that all of us God fearing men have to consistently subjugate those around us because the only two things that we've ever accomplished in our life times is being born white, and being born a man....in America. It's like, we have no other self redeeming qualities so we have give meaning to our lives by trying to take it from those closest to us. Makes total fucking sense right?
I have a conspiracy that the Vatican is the Italian Mafia and they traffic kids within the Vatican/Catholic Church as well as criminally pressure politics and business world wide.
Boy am I glad this thread went down the way it did. Thank you Lemmy! Your heart is close to mine. This is something that's been missing on Reddit for a while. ♥️🙌
Now do "What would the world be better off without?" 🤭
And lots of clergy have been excommunicated over it.
First of all: Oh no! Excommunicated! We're gonna have our pretend sky friend not like you anymore, but only because we could no longer successfully cover it up, so we look bad! How about proactively turned in to law enforcement with evidence? How about the institution that let it happen proactively paying restitution to the victims? How about not just transferring the pedo to another parish to fuck more children with the church's blessing, which is what usually happens.
Second of all: Let's see a source for all these "excommunications." The exceedingly rare times I've seen clergy punished by the church, it's just defrocking, not even excommunication. This indicates that the church believes there's a special place in heaven for pedos. And remember, you said "lots." I expect lots. I shouldn't easily be able to counter with even more instances of churches covering up for their pedo clergy.
Turns out pedos like to get jobs where they interact with kids.
Particularly when they are shielded form real world consequences by their complicit employers.
We should tax these pedo factories and use the money to fund abortions and gender affirmation surgeries.
Or maybe rip the churches out of our tax systems (yeah, that's a thing in Europe) and derive them of the only thing they actually care about. Anyone who does 30 minutes of research into the history of the Catholic Church can't seriously believe that this system isn't working just as intended.
It's a problem when other clergy cover for pedophiles instead of bring them to justice.
You can feel however you want about abortion, but I believe that telling others how to live their lives based on your personal feelings is against their personal freedoms.
Hey, you're entitled to your opinion. I've been treated like shit for saying I think the limit should be 16 weeks instead of 24. It is a spectrum, and all sides have valid arguments, which is why this is such a divisive matter. Some people say masturbation is killing potential lives. Some people say that there should be no limit for abortion, abort whenever.
I understand your point, you think terminating a human life is wrong, which is a natural human response. I think most people also feel the same way, but they give more importance to other matters. Maybe you should try understanding the people in the other positions of the spectrum. Sometimes people make mistakes at a young age (kids are very dumb), women get raped, families can't financially take care of a new child, birth control fails... It's easy to judge them until you're in their position.
Here's the thing, I get it. The condom breaks, birth control fails, shit happens. But it's still murder. If someone gets drunk, and accidentally kills someone, they don't get let off the hook. If they build something, and they fuck up, and someone dies, that's homicidal negligence, and they aren't let off the hook. In almost every abortion case, it's due to making mistakes at a young age (kids are very dumb), women getting raped, families can’t financially take care of a new child, birth control fails, just like you said. And that's no excuse for homicide. Only real thing is self-defense, and I guess you can argue that if the mother's life is truly in danger.
