Dunking on homosexuality by... justifying pedophilia.
Checks out.
IDK Bob, I didn't need to read the bible to know that diddling kids was wrong.

how do we know pedophilia is wrong?

Yeah, the question alone

Are there truly people that need a moral compass, telling them what to do?

Isn't a child, obviously suffering in your hands, not enough of a hint, that there's something wrong with what you're doing, Bob?

Of course there are!
I've had a wacko theist or two ask me why I didn't just go on a murder spree if I didn't believe in God, the Bible, nor hell. Like that's a legit question for them, which is... troubling.
Usually in the form of: "Then what's stopping you from... (insert vile shit)"

Idk, basic human decency, empathy.
Basically, they were telling me that without the threat of hell, they'd just be down with killing whoever whenever if they thought there wasn't some omnipotent cosmic watchdog handling consequences.
And somehow I'm the godless immoral one.
Yikes.

Actually plenty of places in that book that support child marriage.

It's fine if you think the Pope is full of shit but then why are you Catholic?

Who else will validate my inflated ego and bigotry?

[-] stinerman@midwest.social 1 points 10 months ago

Plenty of right-wing evangelical churches to do that!

Catholics that argue with the voice of God are so close to critical thinking. Somehow, they still choose a different route.

It is also never mentioned we cannot impale this guy on a rusty pike and parade his idiocy around town until his body has rotted off. Yet, we still have not done that.

My parents and grandparents are/were liberal, intelligent and devout catholics. Like everything else in the age of social media, the assholes get all the attention.

This is a person who has never heard of Vatican II, or Vatican I for that matter.
