Ex-catholic here but: 1. The British royal family owns the most land on earth, but even then your logic is flawed. Did Jesus say it’s okay to brush your teeth? 2. Catholics don’t worship Mary.

oops, largest non-governmental land owning entity. i feel like jesus would be pretty staunchly against one the largest land owning entities in the entire world based on what i’ve read from the guy. idk though, i just grew up reading the bible 6 days a week lol. you’re right, my bad. when did jesus say it’s okay to worship the pope?

Matthew 6:19-21 “Do not lay up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moth and rust destroy and where thieves break in and steal, but lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust destroys and where thieves do not break in and steal.” Matthew 19:21 “Jesus answered, ‘If you want to be perfect, go, sell your possessions and give to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven. Then come, follow me.’”

and yeah sure, they say they don’t worship the pope, but let’s be real here dude lmfao they confess their sins to a man who allegedly has a strong connection to god. if it was jonestown we’d call it like we see it lmfao.

Your evidence that they worship the pope is that confession exists? I’m having a hard time taking you seriously.

Is your position that the catholic church shouldn’t have any possessions? Should they not own churches?

confession along with the fact they must call on a bunch of a humans in order to reach jesus with their prayers lol. mary, the saints, the pope. jesus doesn’t say you have to do all that, the church made it up lol.

they should be taxed at the very least and truthfully, yes they should be forced to give up a shit ton of their land.

I think theres a reasonable argument for ending tax exemptions, but that would apply to all religions. The government seizing churches is insane though. Thats literally straight out of Stalin’s playbook.

look, i’ve had catholics explain it to me before and it really doesn’t change anything. they’re praying to someone that isn’t jesus. mary can’t reply, just like god can’t, it’s not praying “with” her lmfao it’s praying to her.

You criticized the Catholic Church for being soft on pedophila, which is valid criticism. Why then, do you defend Joseph Stalin, who was himself a pedophile?

i’ve never heard of that before. i know he harbored beria who was one, and mao also has no shortage of accusations and may be who you’re thinking of, but regardless, i personally don’t really fw stalin that heavy. he was the better option compared to trotsky and he synthesized marxism and leninism, which was pretty significant and is more so what i support.

it was true then and it’s still true lmao. praying “with” someone who can’t respond is the exact same as praying “to” someone who can’t respond. i’m sorry lol.

it’s obvious that the pedophilia isn’t enough to get them to leave the church behind somehow so we gotta hammer home how praying “with” mary and praying “to” god are the exact same thing and they worship two gods

The way Christianity works is that if one facet fails they just make a new denomination and repeat ad infinitum to remain relevant forever. These loons will always find a way to make the religion work in their mind (usually from ignorance of said dogma)

looked into it and yeah, that’s awful. still a great theoretical mind unfortunately, i will remain a marxist-leninist. also a hint of irony is that the main historian who uncovered the DNA records is most likely on the epstein list lol. i don’t think that discredits his findings but it’s wild lol.
