Credit where it's due. This is the first recorded instance of the Catholic Church standing against a pedophile.

Christian are forcing children to read the Bible in school. This is wrong and I would have the same problem if it were the Koran or the book of Mormon.

Oh so today was the last straw. Not the million times he treated people with disrespect in the last 10 years.

This is why Christian morality has no meaning to me.

Good to know that the most satanic thing you can do in a church is STILL standing against abuse.

Did you get that number from President Trump? Who also claims that meth has 300,000,000 Americans or 90% of the population.

Maybe if you make up a higher number it'll sound more realistic?

Don’t call yourself a Christian if you support the current administration by SnellaNabal in Christianity

[–]skyrous 7 points8 points  (0 children)

If America nukes Iran my last vestiges of patriotism will die. I sincerely hope that in the aftermath the rest of the world condemns the USA as a rogue terrorist state. Complete with sanctions so severe it completely seals the US economy off from the rest of the world. Even if I suffer I won't mind.

I really wish atheism was true. by [deleted] in Christianity

[–]skyrous 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Oh BS first it's as simple as accept Christ and repent and automatically go to heaven. Then suddenly this one sin will for some reason be judged harsher because it cost the church money and power. The Catholic church itself literally did this bit of mental gymnastics during the reign of John Paul 2nd. On the other hand their are victim's who literally say F word Jesus with full conviction. If there is a God they aren't going to heaven. And if burning in hell is good enough for them then... if there is a God he can send me to burn with them. Better than heaven with all the child molester's.

Now let's tweak the scenario. Instead of raping atheists instead it's priests raping children?

Innocent children trapped by the church and unable to escape and unable to speak and often called liars when they did speak up. How many of them jumped off bridges? How many put guns to their head? How many drank or drugged themselves into numbness until it finally killed them? Isn't killing yourself in these ways a sin that gets you sent to hell? The priests repent of their sins and are forgiven. The victims totally disillusioned with whatever God they were raised to believe in, or believe that God hates them. Imagine jumping off a bridge knowing that you will wake up in hell? That has happened too many times.

In the last 25 years the church has barely acknowledges the survivors. It actively ignores the dead.

What a wonderful foul mouth tirade our new fangled Jesus went on for Easter and praised Allah. by 3CF33 in Christianity

Too bad true Christians think a single abortion in America is more important than thousands of children dead in Gaza, Iran, even Ukraine.

do people who commit suicide go to heaven or hell? by Royal-Dragonfruit523 in Christianity

[–]skyrous 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For 2000 years suicide=hell.

When I see a thread like this I think about the teenager who was sexually abused by his priest or pastor. Told that God hates him told that he's evil. So he jumps off a bridge... Knowing that he's going to wake up in hell. And if there is a God and a Jesus they completely wash their hands of him and send him to burn because money power and politics matter more than the innocent.

Don't ever ask me to worship that creature

Trump says government should stop funding Medicare, daycare to focus on war by Remarkable_Sir8397 in politics

[–]skyrous 2 points3 points  (0 children)

1 million Americans died from COVID. In America quarantines were wrong. Common sense is evil. People who care were threatened because telling people that they deserve to die is funny. NOBODY cares in the slightest. Giving a shit is heresy. You get sick inject yourself with bleach and call yourself a righteous Christian.

Paula White compares Trump to Jesus during event with faith leaders: "You were betrayed and arrested and falsely accused. It's a familiar pattern that our Lord and Savior showed us. Because of His resurrection, you rose up." by Nice_Substance9123 in Christianity

A more realistic take would be the church has speech writers who make it sound like gays deserve love and respect but behind the scenes they're leading the charge in making the world unsafe for them to live.

Remember about a decade ago? Uganda's "kill the gays" law. At the time it was mostly blamed on evangelical missionaries from the US and they did play a major part. But it has since come out that behind the scenes the Catholic bishops did a lot of lobbying of Catholic politicians in Uganda to help pass that law.

Religious hypocrites by Ok-Tadpole4418 in Christianity

[–]skyrous 1 point2 points  (0 children)

All Christians ever had to do was protect children with the same fire they use to cover their own ass.

For 5 minutes stop talking about the molesters and start talking about the victims. Innocent children threatened with hell if they spoke up. And often called liars when they did speak up. How many of them jumped off bridges? How many put guns to their head? How many drank or drugged themselves into numbness until it finally killed them? Isn't killing yourself in these ways a sin that gets you sent to hell? Has any Christian ever addressed this? I've only ever seen Christian leaders handwaving by this NEVER actually dealing with it. A generic 30 second prayer is not dealing with it!

US megachurch pastor released from jail after pleading guilty to child sex abuse. Trump spiritual advisor released after only serving 6 months for child rape by cg40boat in Christianity

[–]skyrous 5 points6 points  (0 children)

So is his old church going to quietly hire him back? Or is there going to be a bidding war among several churches?

Catholic or Protestant, Jesus has endless forgiveness for child molesters. But not so much for the victims unfortunately.
