Stupid things religious people say
RE: Stupid things religious people say
Catholics are not allowed to attend weddings that are not Catholic.

But the debate is still on if one partner was baptized in the Catholic church (which they call "invalid weddings") but attending them is also pretty much out of the question too.

Quote:According to Jesuit Mitch Pacwa, there is only one marriage debate for Catholics, and it’s something that comes up regularly on his radio show: “Is it okay to attend a wedding when a baptized Catholic gets married outside of the Church?”

The reason behind the debate is because the Code of Canon Law states: “Only those marriages are valid which are contracted before the local [bishop], pastor or a priest or deacon delegated by either of them who assist, and before two witnesses” (1108 §1).

According to him, maintaining peace within families is very important, but there is also the question of motive: “Are they trying to put me in an uncomfortable position to prove their point? Or do they simply not see that there is an issue at stake?”

According to Father Perez-Lopez, this whole issue demands an exercise of the virtue of prudence. A great number of important circumstances may change the moral scenario. On the one hand, one certainly wants to avoid cooperation in evil and scandal. “By attending these marriages, you don’t want to give the impression that you approve of their not following the canonical form of marriage,” he said. “You need to make it clear you do not agree with that. Moreover, one should avoid being an active participant of the ceremony.”

Rita Ciavarella of Bismarck, N.D., said she and her husband, Rick, made the decision not to attend invalid weddings.

“When our four children were young, I told them that Dad and I would always love them, but if they married outside of the Church, we would not be able to go.”

teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"

Faux News yet again reveals ignorant parents

Quote:The situation started on the first evening of the trip when we discovered that my daughter, without her or my knowledge or consent, was to sleep in the same bed with a fifth-grade boy who identifies as a girl.

Wait, has anyone ended up in prison for saying that marriage should be between a man and a woman? Nice job in keeping peace and not arousing hate, asshole.

Quote:Cardinal: Jesus would 'go to prison' today for affirming man and woman, traditional marriage

Cardinal Gerhard Ludwig Müller claimed during a recent interview that Jesus would likely be imprisoned in Western societies today for affirming biological sex and traditional marriage.

"Jesus also contradicts ideologically these ways [that] want to relativize or even destroy a marriage of men and women and the family of the parents with their own children," the German cardinal told GB News host Jacob Rees-Mogg.

Referencing Matthew 19, Müller noted how the Pharisees attempted to entrap Jesus by interrogating Him over the issue of marriage, but that Jesus pushed back by affirming marriage as between a man and woman, as well as God's original design of male and female.

"He would in Canada or the United States or European countries go to prison because He spoke out the truth about the marriage between a man and a woman."

Women are not allowed to wear backpacks because then their boobs are more visible.

Maybe if they wore them as frontpacks.  'Course then their butt would be more visible.  And we can't have that.
