We're doing it because Cream is talking like he understands Catholicism, even though he doesn't, which would be a little more bearable if he wasn't condemning it.
Dude, no one understands Catholicism.
My mother is Catholic and I went to a Catholic school for most of my early life, and I don't understand it at all.
^^ You know... I haven't talked about my cultural background, and may know more about Catholicism than people think.
I know you used to be Catholic. But how long ago was this? I know you used to talk about how when you were around 13 you would tell people you were a Satanist to freak them out, so it's been at least six years since you've been Catholic, and no one knows much about their religion at 12.

Actually even if he didn't delete it, the forum's search function is so faulty I doubt you'd find it even by reproducing it word-for-word. Google would be only slightly better.
All of that is entirely perpendicular to his point anyway.
Long story short: Don't insult people's religion. Nobody likes it, nobody will be converted to your oh-so logical way of thinking when you inevitably stun them with your cunning arguments, and you make yourself look like a tool.
Mojave I think this thread is picking on me now, because I said some impolite stuff about Catholic history. But, what would you do if you were me?
I'd change. Because I was actually very like you once, notice how I am not anymore.
I like you for the most part, Cream. But you have an annoying tendency to go on these little spirals of malicious whimsy for (I can only imagine) the sole purpose of getting people to pay attention to you by virtue of their being annoyed.
That is not a good way to make friends, take it from someone who knows. No one thinks you're mysterious or clever by doing this. It is only annoying.
Now, this discussion is over. You can think on what I'm saying or you can not, your choice.
I can insult whatever religions I want. A religion is not a race, or a mental condition, or a physical disability, or a gender, or a sexuality. A religion is an opinion: a choice that people make. Some religions have stuff I hate. Some religions are thoroughly retarded. Like Scientology!!
You can. But an inevitable result of this is that no one will like you because of how self righteous you are. And "durr hurr yur religon sux" is nothing to be self righteous about.
A religion can be a culture, a belief about reality, an ancestral tradition, a set of core moral values, some combination of the above and any number of other things. What it usually isn't is something trivial to its adherents.
With that said can we not have another stupid catfight over something as stupid as this? Otherwise I'm just going to lose it and like punch a dog or a Catholic priest or something.
You are the end result of a “would you push the button” prompt where the prompt was “you have unlimited godlike powers but you appear to all and sundry to be an impetuous child” – Zero, 2022

Stop victimizing yourself! You are the person who caused this. You. Maybe if you were defending something, you'd have a right to consider yourself a victim. But you're attacking, and therefore you deserve no sympathy.
The Catholic church, for a very long time, only ever hindered science, and I don't believe that it has contributed very much to the discipline. It may have been the driving force of literacy and education in Europe in the middle ages but that is because it was the most powerful entity in Europe, and during that time it did terrible things.
^ Oh ok.
Lighthearted goading. Uh huh. Because when I'm just screwing around with my friends, I go up to them and say "Hey guys! You know that Stalin oppressed religious people and killed hundreds upon thousands of people, right? Man, I don't know about you, but I'll be glad when all the atheists are gone."

I was incorrect.tho i also recall it
I can't help but think there must have been better ways to Anglicize that.
Sincere question.

because that's really the only word i can apply here dude
No. We are not "here". There is no "here" to be at.
You are not being clever, you are not being cute, you are being an idiot.
You are perfectly capable of being a functional human being, but sometimes I cannot help but wonder if you actually have any desire to be one.
What issue? There is nothing left here to discuss intelligently.

Oh, I'm sorry. I guess I should have a little more perspective considering how you attacked my freaking religion.
how about both?
Scratch that, I couldn't punch that face.
OOSA GOOD DOGGIE

Cream, I like you. But you can't go goading people and then act persecuted when you get a response.
Oh my god this is so fucking stupid.
