Topic: Christianity is Poison - page 19. (Read 52590 times)

I am sure that the vast majority of this amount was spent on defending the pedophile clerics. A few months back, there was a news story from Mexico. A Catholic priest had raped some 30 orphaned indigenous girls in the state of Oaxaca. Unfortunately, the priest himself was HIV positive, and he probably passed on the disease to many of his victims. The last time I heard, the Catholic church was spending huge amounts for the legal defense and medical treatment of the priest. But there was no mention about the victims anywhere.

As of 2015, the catholic church has spent over $4 BILLION defending pedophile priests...

The Catholic Church Has Paid Out $3,994,797,060.10 as a Result of the Sex Abuse Scandals

Pope was the one who pardoned these perverts and he even promoted some of them to various high ranking positions in the Vatican. The current pope is a typical hypocrite. He claims that he is against pedophilia, and at the same time he is promoting these pedo-priests.

And what of the popes to blame? No he can't answer for everyone. It's the fault of the position of the Church which he is obliged to support. Every religion is poison. When people will understand it they will live better. Religion imposes on people a false value.

Horny priests sodomizing the choir boys is less serious when compared to the attempts by the Vatican to shield these priests. It is the pope who should be blamed for this pathetic state of affairs. He is afraid to act against the pedos.

You are quite wrong here Moloch. No document in world history so changed the world for the better as did the 10-commandments. Western civilization would not have developed nor can it be sustained without them.

Priests are not even afraid to rape little boys... nobody is afraid of god

Besides the fact that our moral system has nothing to do with Christianity

People always point to the 10-commandments... as if they are laws or something...
1) Thou shalt have no other gods before me (not a law)
2) Thou shalt not make idols (not a law)
3) Thou shalt not take gods name in vain (not a law)
4) Honor thy father and mother (not a law)
5) Keep the sabbath holy (not a law)
6) Thou shalt not kill (finally, one that is a law, though it was a law long before Christianity... Christians did not invent "do not murder")
7) Thou shalt not commit adultery (not a law)
8} Thou shalt not steal (another law that was invented before Christianity)
9) Thou shalt not covet (not a law)
10) Thou shalt not covet (again, not a law... don't know why god has to repeat himself either)

2 out of 10 does not form the basis of modern morality... especially considering both of the commandments which happen to be laws, were already laws before the bible was even written

Beyond the 10-commandments, you have things like:
Not allowed to eat meat and dairy in the same meal (penalty = death)
Not allowed to wear clothing made from 2 different materials (penalty = death)
Not allowed to plant 2 different crops in the same field (penalty = death)
Not allowed to work or travel more than a mile from your house on Sunday (penalty = death)
Not allowed to eat pork or seafood (penalty = death)
Not allowed to rape a virgin (penalty = you must marry her) (true story, it's in the bible!)

None of this makes sense, or are laws, or have anything to do with morality...
