WeePaws may be a tad bit off his rocker but he's right in regards to Catholics and Christians. 

Catholics are frauds, it's about the pageantry and show. They'll show up on Sunday, stand, sit, kneel, stand, sit, kneel, put money in the basket and go home. Then do it all again next Sunday. 

Christians live by the bible.

I'm not saying either is right, that's just how it is.

Wrong.  My church does a tremendous amount of good works in the community.

Sure, some people mail it in, as they do in protestant variations, as well as cults like weepaws'.

Catholic leaders join French bishops in condemning Last Supper scene at Paris Olympics opening

 

CNA Newsroom, Jul 27, 2024 / 13:00 pm

Bishops and prominent prelates from around the world have joined the French Bishops’ Conference and U.S. bishops in criticizing the Paris Olympics opening ceremony held on July 26 for itsdepiction of the Last Supper, calling it a deeply deplorable derision of Christianity.

The controversial scene, part of the 1.5 billion euros (about $1.62 billion) spectacle to kick off the 2024 Summer Olympics in a rain-soaked French capital on Friday, featured drag queens portraying the apostles and an overweight DJ as Jesus in what appeared to be a part of a fashion show — apparently mocking Leonardo da Vinci’s famous painting.

The official Olympics Twitter accountdescribed part of the scene as depicting “the Greek God Dionysus“ making people “aware of the absurdity of violence between human beings.“

In a statement released Saturday, the French bishops expressed deep regret over “scenes of derision and mockery of Christianity, which we deeply deplore.”

Yeah those French bishops have a nice history. They participated in Vichy and the Holocaust and allowed Jews to be deported to death camps and even informed on their hiding places in some cases. And they refused to apologize for any of it. But now they deplore this? F them.

Not saying that at all. Churches are a huge part of their communities and I respect what they do. 

I'm talking about the weekend warrior Catholics. You know exactly the ones I'm talking about. The ones that go to Church because all their neighbors do. The ones that can't recite one bible verse, the ones that don't live by the bible or practice what they preach.

Christianity has done great things. It was Christians who were behind the abolitionist movement and the civil rights movement. It was Christians who hid Jews during the Holocaust (in some countries anyhow.) 

I disagree with some of your points but I don’t want you to think I am anti-Christian.

And a lot of good stuff. I disagree with @jerryskids about how great the missionaries were (I recommend James Michener’s Hawaii for anyone who wants to learn about the American ones in particular) but overall, post-Enlightenment, I’d say the good outweighs the bad.

I’m certainly opposed to religious persecution of gays and trannies.  But I don’t separate out Catholics. Muslims are the worse in this regard- they murder them. Catholics, Protestants, Mormons and Jews have all contributed to persecution. I’m against that but not against the people. Most of them aren’t mean-spirited; they’re just wrong. They’re not evil.

The opening ceremony was filled with transgend*r mockery of the Last Supper, the Golden Calf idol, and even the Pale Horse from the Book of Revelation.

It’s called Christianity. It begins and ends with Jesus and what he preached. What came before him means nothing unless he said it does. It’s called the Old Testament for a reason.

Dear fellow gays… We demand tolerance and respect but then make a mockery of something sacred for over 2 billion Christians.  This type of hypocrisy and lack of understanding is a bad look.  We get outraged when the extreme right bashes us, but then we do this . What kind of reaction do you think they will have towards the LGBTQ+ community after this.  This is NOT how we break down barriers it’s how you build them.

No idea who this is but she sounds like an idiot because she’s using the word “we”- as if this was done by the LGBTQ+ community as a whole. In fact it was designed by one French dude and I don’t even know if he was gay. 
 

It’s a typical conservative thing: when Trump was shot “they” did it. When an undocumented immigrant commits a violent crime (a rare occurrence by the way) it’s “illegals did this”. The 2020 rioting was supposedly done by the BLM movement. Conservatives, who supposedly champion individualism (at least they used to) collectivize everything and blame groups of people.

You think a Conservative designed that scene?  You think the Village People dude with his nutsack hanging out inches from a child on television for the whole world to see - you think he was a Conservative?  God you’re an insufferable idiot.

I didn’t say he was a conservative. I said I don’t know if he’s gay and even if he is, he doesn’t represent the “LGBTQ+ community.”
