imagine being a catholic priest and not having the wisdom to just keep your mouth shut about pedophilia
no you see it’s because he’s autistic and can’t filter his thoughts, not because he’s a homophobic priest who defends pedophilia </s>
I fucking hate twitter. having takes likes that is literally ableist.
:brd: :stalin-gun-1::stalin-gun-2:
Funny, I know plenty of autistic people that manage not to be pedophiles
someone got mad at me for this on twitter because apparently the priest is autistic, so let me just point out that all this is in the context of a thread where he tries to blame the catholic abuse scandal on allowing gay priests
being ND is not an excuse for supporting pedophiles. hope that helps anyone who is uncertain.
"It's okay to normalize pedophilia if you're autistic" is not a take I was expecting to hear about today
Wow ok perfect this can serve as an explicit "shut the fuck up" that may have been only an implicit "shut the fuck up"
yes because what the Catholics could really do with is more shame around sex and normalised covering up sexual behavior.
they probably just didn't try that
... reminder that 82% of Catholic priests report regularly fearing allegations of sexual abuse against them. Something that is definitely very normal to live in fear of for people that do absolutely nothing wrong.
As a Catholic I support them having the fear of God/Criminal investigation put into them.
Hey, let's get sex advice from an institution where nobody has been allowed to have a healthy relationship in a thousand years.
seems like a good plan that won’t result in any widespread societal harm
:blob-no-thoughts:
Cathloc Church in 800ad "hey, priests can marry, dudes can marry each other if they want to, and hey, we're not gonna check the genitals of anyone who wants to be a priest too closely because who cares?"
Catholic Church in 21st century: "we're deeply hurt that you accused us of being a cult of child rapists at a time when we're paying out unprecedented settlements for raping so many children"
I read somewhere, perhaps on this site, that the church banned marriage in order to prevent priests from having kids. No kids means no inheritance, so the priests' property would instead pass to the church after their death.
Specifically, from having kids born in wedlock, who could legally inherit their property. Having bastards was fine by them, and the church actually has a secret fund to pay alimony for kids fathered by priests until this day.
The issue is absolutely not any kind of paraphilia. It's men who have social power using it to control and abuse people who do not. I hate that it's become complete normal to refer to abuse of teenagers with the language of mental health. It obscures the reality of abusive social, religious, and cultural power relationships.
Oh my god
Nobody is talking past anyone. Pedophilia just colloquially means kiddie pervert. Nobody talking about specific kiddie perverts is getting confused like "OH I thought you meant he was a PEDO but it was only HEBEPHEBEPHEHEHBE this changes EVERYTHING!" it just means the same thing.
"a PEDO was trying to molest a 14 year old" is not some distortion or mistake that makes any person not understand what is happening.
Whether the judge and jury need to throw up in their mouths with slightly more frequency is not a practical distinction and that's exactly why those terms are nearly useless and became compressed into one.
Notice how "Child murderer" doesn't have 3 or 4 age subcategories? We can still just read what their age was and get more disturbed if we feel like it. What are you gonna start calling it "Hebecide" what the fuck
oh the context of this makes it significantly worse
edit: the context is that he's saying that 'the catholic church doesn't have a pedo problem it has a gay problem because most of the sex abuse was actually done by evil gay ebebehigils and not true pedos'
They're just gonna ignore the tens of millions of gay men in the world who manage to not become catholic priests so they can molest chikdren.
Marduk actually
Storm gods are the enemy, the dragons are comrades
Mm, yes, let's negotiate which types of abuse you creeps are allowed to do. My starting offer is that you stop abusing the ability to live, Father

well yes there are the two sides to the issue, father:
side 1: wall
side 2: pit
