"Let it be very clear, then, that when the church preaches social justice, equality, and human dignity; when the church defends those who suffer poverty or violence, this is not subversive nor is it Marxism. This is the authentic magisterium of the church.

I have a pretty low opinion of protestants, and it's not some kinda internet thing. I was born into a catholic family, and in that shitty village of a town protestants didnt acknowledge catholics as christians, except when it was convenient. I had a friend who called me out for not being "conservative" enough cuz thats what catholics were suppose to be more so than baptists apparently, but fuck that. Even in a small town we had a diverse parish, fuckin hell one of our parishoners was a transwoman.
You cant really have any pride in being a catholic, look at the history of the church, it's deeply deeply fucked up, but it still led me in a round about way to who I am today.
