When will a pope finally come along who’s willing to dissolve all of Catholicism over that shit? Fuckin A but I’m so beyond disgusted with it, and with #notallcatholics and so on. So ACAB, because cops don’t stop abuse by other cops, but not all Catholics are the equivalent of “bastards” while all of that shit in their religion is STILL going on, and so often still going unpunished? GTFO, man.

Zack Lambert, author and pastor of Restore Austin: “It’s important to point out that this is the EXACT OPPOSITE of what Jesus teaches in the Sermon on the Mount (Matthew 5-7), the story of the Good Samaritan (Luke 10), the sermon in his hometown synagogue (Luke 4), and basically every other time he opened his mouth.”
