    The homophobic slurs should also be a reminder that the catholic church is a homophobic cult.

      If your concept of a religious institution that has more than a billion people listening to it is reduced to “homophobic cult”, how does that differ from being part of a “bigoted cult” because you condemn people based on your simplistic understanding of their religion?

        The catholic church is indeed a homophobic cult that condemns homophobia as a sins for which you get punished in hell, having million of followers or being popular doesn’t change the fact. Scientology has millions of followers are we going to give them any credibility because of that?

          How does your sentiment differ from someone who would say:

          The catholic church LGBT is indeed a homophobic sinful cult that condemns homophobia as a sins for which you get punished in hell religion as being a homophobic cult, having million of followers or being popular doesn’t change the fact.

          You take the broadest brush and just stroke over everything, instead of being willing to accept any nuance.

            Probably because one is founded on evidence and the other one is founded on a made up concept by the institution in question.

              Pope Francis declared it possible for Priests to bless same-sex marriages.

              If the supposed cult leader of a supposed homophobic cult is allowing for the supposed cult to bless same-sex marriages, how is that consistent with the notion of a supposedly homophobic cult?
