This really epitomizes the smug attitude where they pretend their cruelty is actually kindness.

It's one thing to say "Sorry, your lifestyle is not compatible with our faith."

But they have to go with "Sure, we'll accept you as long as you recognize that you're a disgusting freak. Isn't that accepting and generous of me?"

Couldn't Christianity be considered a mental illness? Believing in imaginary things throughout adulthood? I'm not knocking religion because I know it has its purpose for people, but if you're going to use it as a weapon, don't be surprised when someone uses that weapon against you. If not a mental illness, then it's textbook brainwashing.

Love me forever for no reason or I’ll burn you for eternity. Also I’m really efficient at killing kids for no reason, it’s part of my plan. You wouldn’t understand.

How is that for freedom huh?

The biggest irony is these fuckwits pick and choose what god does and doesn’t give humanity. Like, isn’t hormonal therapy a gift from god? Therefore being able to present as a different gender than that assigned from birth must be the work of god right? Otherwise surely that would mean god is fallible

Woah woah, heterodox. That's too universal for Catholicism. (Hypocrisy joke for the Latin language folks)

Oh the irony. Calling people mentally ill while they are a member, of their own volition, of an organization that molests and murders children and committed crimes against humanity for centuries in the name of their god.

as we welcome anyone else with a mental illness - with compassion and truth.

Well, except if it's about fucking children, then they lie.

Its just so fucked up. Like, why do they poke their beak into others private matters? They just need to deny the anxiety they feel through cold hatred for some reason. It is a motiv suspiciously devoid of compassion.

They faithfully support the child rapist mafia upon which their house of cards is built. Nothing else.

There's no cunt like a righteous cunt.

Grew up in religion. Self hatred was always a requirement.

I love how this person can’t recognize which of the two the pope would give a talking to

Yep, that's some religious cringe alright.

Catholics are usually all about the converts, so you'd expect the guy to be more welcoming in public.
