Topic: Old vs New Catholicism

Old Catholicism

- the pope is infallible and when he says that all who die along the way by sea or by air on a mad suicidal quest to conquer the holy land will receive immediate remission of their sins and skip purgatory for the 8th or 9th time in a row depending on who you ask everybody’s gonna get up and actually do it

- the pope gets to decide whether or not European monarchs can declare war

- the pope gets to decide whether European monarchs can get their marriages annulled

- the church gets to crown monarchs and emperors

- heretics are burned alive at the stake in public as examples of what happens if you question the authority of the church

- if you have doubts about god you will be taken in for questioning and tortured

- suicide is unforgivable and if you kill yourself you will be buried in a Jewish cemetery instead of a Catholic cemetery unless you died as a martyr of the faith

New Catholicism:

- war is bad

- migrants and the poor should be treated with dignity

- capital punishment is bad

- democracy is good

- suicide is sorta forgivable

Sorta forgivable as in, you won’t go to hell, but you should suffer instead of taking the easy way out.

They've been semi-cool with science so that's a start, but the entire organization is huffing their own farts with the robes and confessional booth and theater.

@previous (B)
Make fun of confession all you want, but don’t disrespect the drip.
