    you’re sensationalizing old stories

    They are not old stories, the homophobic slurs were from last years and the context is a recent scandal.

    https://www.washingtonpost.com/world/interactive/2021/vatican-sexual-abuse/

    If you’re going to use someone’s death as a jumping-off point for pointless masturbatory anti-religious rhetoric

    “Someone” is the internally appointed CEO of a cult that use death for any sort of non-sense masturbatory rhetoric.

      “Old” is subjective, and I’d still say they’re old and have been repeated ad nauseum, but you definitely left out the context that would cast doubt on your initial message. This is intellectually dishonest.

      I wish you’d quote what I said about the thesaurus and take that into consideration, too. There are other words besides “internally appointed CEO” and “cult.” It’s literally just spam for spam’s sake. We get it dude, you’re mad at the church. Go be mad at it someplace other than a news thread.

      You don’t come across as someone who cares about these issues or the people who have been hurt by the church. You come across as someone exploiting death for the sake of argument, which makes you no better than the Catholic church by your own admission.

      Now fuck off back to r/atheism and quit spamming lemmy news threads with edgy drivel.

        but you definitely left out the context that would cast doubt on your initial message.

        Here is it:

        https://www.washingtonpost.com/world/interactive/2021/vatican-sexual-abuse/

        The cult leader was addressing sexual abuses in church seminars and said that there are too many “fags” in there.

        someone exploiting death for the sake of argument, which makes you no better than the Catholic church by your own admission.

        Unlike the catholic church i’m not exploiting death to convey lies and promote my cult, i’m not exploiting death at all i’m simply commenting on a pinned thread about the shady stuff this guy was involved in.

        Now fuck off back to r/atheism and quit spamming lemmy news threads with edgy drivel.

        r/atheism is where they discuss the non-existence of god. A news thread looks fit to discuss the shady scandals involving the person in question. Perhaps you should go to r/chatolicchurch

          At this point, it just feels like I’m punching down. So I’m gonna go ahead and stop, because you clearly are not equipped to meet me where I am.

          Please continue spamming the same link with the same commentary. They are sure to listen to you if you just scream louder. You aren’t swinging at ghosts at all. :)
