People are people... I was raised Catholic but I left the church.
I love some of them with all of my heart, I hate others.

I despise all religions in general.

Anyone who opposes birth control, the world is better off without them. Not all Catholics are like that, I know, but it's a thing with them and it's batshit insane.
FCNantes · 22-25, M
@BlueVeins Opposes birth control to any extent, or outrightly?
BlueVeins · 22-25
@FCNantes Like, opposes the concept, thinks that it has no place in the world.
FCNantes · 22-25, M
@BlueVeins Fair enough.

They should be ashamed of themselves.
Their church actively suppressed and hid child molestation and sheltered predators for decades in order to preserve the dignity of the church, they sacrificed children to predators, paid off victims to buy their silence with donations and allowed abuse..
I could never be a catholic.. the Vatican should be dissolved and sold off to compensate victims around the world

@FCNantes
In my opinion any support of such a dramatically corrupt enterprise is equal to condoning the abuse..
The amount of abuse and the degree of cover up is beyond forgiveness..
Adogslife · 61-69, M
@SW-User If only 👍🏻

Can you imagine if the cancel culture actively went after the Catholic Church?

God that would be awesome.
FCNantes · 22-25, M
@SW-User Would you agree that we should all get the hell off of Facebook (of those who're on it)?

Hypocrites, like most religious people.

@MarineBob ok ✌
FCNantes · 22-25, M
@Harriet03 I'd like to add that nearly everyone's a hypocrite.
FreeSpirit1 · 51-55, F
I was raised catholic and have no problem with them, just the church
People are going to believe what they believe.
They’re similar to Jews when it comes to guilt. But they have less bank holidays and are overall much poorer.

confessing their sins to a sinner they call father that isn't their father... 🤔

In other words, if you're not confessing to the Lord, you might as well be confessing to a big pile of manure...

Be nice, God will strike hard.🤔
marsbar · F
There’s a lot of guilt involved.
@marsbar Now you’re talking! I had a very wonderful weekend in Toronto years ago. My favorite memory was of an erotic encounter in a hotel room that overlooked the old Maple Leaf Garden. Awesome city. And that Labatt’s Blue has a kick!
marsbar · F
@stratosranger I think what you liked best was that erotic encounter. Lol
Well, er, um...yes? @marsbar
It’s been ages since I have attended a Catholic mass or funeral until this past weekend. A neighbor from the old neighborhood passed on and I attended the service on youtube streaming (I now live way too many miles away). The service was a cookie cutter uninspired, soulless and empty rite that reminded me of why I lost faith so long ago. To those it gives solace I say peace be with you. I just find it as dry and unfulfilling as a Communion wafer.
FCNantes · 22-25, M
@stratosranger [i]Oh, snap![/i]
FCNantes · 22-25, M
Sorry, that was just the sound of the wafer I bit.
JoePourMan · 61-69, M
Good people with a strong faith
Unlike those filthy Protestants with their Davey and Goliath! 😂@JoePourMan
JoePourMan · 61-69, M
@stratosranger No, protestants are good people with a strong faith also
@JoePourMan I am actually fine with both and was just joking.
SW-User
Cool art. The Vatican should be dissolved and their wealth given to the poor.
FCNantes · 22-25, M
Too broad for me to have a substantive opinion.
@FCNantes An Irishman with no opinion on Catholics? Whoa! 🤣 🥃
Harmonium1923 · 51-55, M
I disagree with the Church’s view on almost everything except capital punishment. Interestingly a large number of Catholics I know also seem to disagree with the Church’s positions on any number of topics.
@wildbill83 Thats not true. The Pope is the leader of the Church like the Queen is the leader of protestant church in Uk. I dont think anyone worships them directly. I know I dont. I think your misguided. Catholics dont worship statues either another myth.
wildbill83 · 36-40, M
@Cutiepi23 i.e. "political" leadership... congregation has little or no say in the matter. Here, if a pastor (or any member of the church for that matter) loses confidence of the congregation/breaks away from scripture/sacrament, they're thrown out of the church (excommunication).

When's the last time the Queen or Pope were excommunicated?
@wildbill83 Maybe there's no reason to excommunicate them.
DeluxedEdition · 26-30, F
they are a "christianity" sugar coated satantic worshiping cult

Vatican is evil....but all the regular people ive met in life who were catholics , were very nice people
wildbill83 · 36-40, M
My thoughts when someone mentions the Pope... 🤔

Zeuro · 26-30, F
@Nobody00 it’s really good! You get a glimpse into the inner politics of the Vatican. It stars Jude Law
Nobody00 · F
Catholics, Buddhists, Muslims, Jews, and others who follow religious beliefs are to be taken for their humanity, not necessarily their religious leanings.
Synyster · 51-55, M
I'm Roman Catholic, I have no issues with Catholic people.
Zeuro · 26-30, F
@Synyster question, what other types of Catholics are there besides Roman?
Synyster · 51-55, M
@Zeuro Latin Catholics

Like most religion there are good and bad as in every society and walk of life.

The Catholic Church has us whipped. We’re afraid of everything and going to hell.
Some are nice some are not. No different from others.
riseofthemachine · 41-45, M
@Cutiepi23 why do people have a bad opinion on Catholics. I'm just wondering . I'm a catholic and I dont think it's doing me much good being honest .
A lot of pain in my life I had and I do believe in virgin mary and Christ. I dont go to Church but I'd pop in on my own for a bit of quiet time but why do people have bad opinions about them
@riseofthemachine Im not sure if people have bad opinions of Catholics.It might be priests & the vatican because of the scandal. Then again they didnt like catholics before that came to light. However every institution even families have bad people in them.
A lot of people have pain in their life also. I dont think being a Catholic is making your life bad. Look at your life and see what you need to change to make yourself happy. If you return fully to your faith it might also help. Dipping in and out might not be the best course.
Some people believe Catholics worship statues ....maybe that annoys them. Protestants dont agree with the teachings so 🤷 idk.
TexChik · F
Catholics as people are wonderful. But the church ! The Vatican is corrupt .

riseofthemachine · 41-45, M
@hotarabgirl why dont you like them . I'm one and I'm not mean , abusive, no malice nothing like that but at times I dont feel I'm catholic either
Rosiechick13 · 26-30, F
Very 2 sided cause you can just fix it at confession
MarineBob · 56-60, M
@Rosiechick13 or settle it out of court

If I weren't a raving atheist, I'd probably be Catholic.
It's a religion. Most people are one religion of another. Big deal.

Easy money. You can say what you like about them knowing you won't be called racist, anti-Semitic, "homophobic", Islamophobic, etc.
