    The first priest that the PR Pope excommunicated, in 2013, earned it by speaking out for women to be ordained (he also supported marriage equality, but the ordaining women thing seems to be the main issue).

    In Melbourne. The same city where George Pell molested children and protected other molesters. George Pell, a child who the Pope appointed to the Council of Cardinal Advisers.

    Child molestation isn’t a lesser sin to the church. It’s a non-sin.

      I mean, where in the Bible does it say you can’t rape children? The bible doesn’t condemn rape of adults or children. It’s not a sin to rape anyone at all.

        The bit that western xtians like to say means don’t do gay sex could be better translated to “don’t fuck your apprentices”

        But king James was fucking his advisors, who were more than twice his age, while they were translating the bible into English so they took some creative liberties
