absolutely insane take from the priest this past sunday but apparently he doesn't consider marriages only carried out at the courthouse and not through the church as real marriages so if you got married and didnt get a specifically catholic marriage then having sex is still a sin. absolutely baffling take along with the rest of the purity culture bs he was spouting

Did they really need to make 3 separate rules about Homosexuality?

not anti-theist btw but i'm against modern american evangelicalism & general religious fundamentalism no matter the religion specifically i think it is rotten to its core. non-fundamentalist religions are fine

Listen, i dont mean to sound like a reddit atheist, but... You ever think about how evangelical Chriatians very literally believe that there will be a genocide in which billions of humans, mostly just innocent everyday people, are condemned to suffer in hell?
And, like, that's the end. That's the finale. Of everything they believe. That's their solution for the world. A final one, if you will.
And they don't rebel. They don't say "hey, wait, that's a bit much" and appeal to their God to maybe reconsider. They don't even seem to really mind.
Instead, they worship. They conjure up an image of a genocidal maniac, and they worship it. The word "praise" is bandied about a lot. Praise. For a leader whose endgoal, very transparently, is genocide.
Suddenly a lot of history makes a little more sense.

"Oh you need to bring your family members back to the church it'll be good for them. My brother found himself again once he started going to church again so clearly all of your family members who dont go to church need the same" no. Penis blast
God. I think one of the reasons my parents are way more insistent that I go to church is because one of the new priests is like. Harping on getting family members back to the faith and I openly do not go to church when I live away from home and now I feel like my parents think I have a demon problem

"We're your parents and still pay most of your bills and rent" even the $500 you threatened me with wouldnt cut into my savings I make enough but I know you don't want to do that bc I can put that money on loans and you don't want me moving out because thats a financial burden on me that would make it harder to pay back student loans and my other job is seasonal so I'm only there 5 months out of the year
Why is it so necessary for me to go to church!!!!!! Im 23 i dont care if i live at home im my own fucking person why am i being forced to go

No one:
Me at dissociating in the middle of work: I have so many feelings about Cain. I have so many feelings about Judas. Because what is a kill when you know murder as the last stage of love? Because what is a God when he chooses you for condemnation? Because what is sacrifice but spilling the blood of what you nurtured? Because doesn't God ask for offerings? Doesn't he demand it? Whether you're willing to give it or not?

not terribly happy having to start my literal birthday by going to church and being psychologically attacked by the priest saying patriotism is a part of being catholic.

The full saga but like. This was so off topic to the reason you were sending me asks in the first place. Even if i was a drug user and a slut who gives a fucking shit why does what i do with my own body make you so insecure about yourself? Why do you think 23 is old? I feel like you are in a bad situation and need more help than you are willing to admit and that's okay but taking it out on others does not help
Posting this here bc I'm pretty sure the anon who has been harassing me stalks my main blog to see if I l've talked about them but I keep getting jumpscared by their last ask that implies all Americans are sluts just by virtue of being American which is such a bizarre take.
