“Today I want to tell you peasants, that there is no place for racism, sexism and patriarchy in our church. We embrace all human beings. And also fagg°ts and n!ggers and mull@hs. We especially embrace beautiful nude small boys!”
the Catholic Church, probably

Edit 2: I think I got it now. Please let me know in case it doesn’t work.
Bad word used
! The italian " Froci " is comparable to the English term " fag0tts " by adding " -aggine" , " Frociaggine " is something similar to " fagottism " !<
Indeed a very touch of class from the old man.
Is it a bad word that would have been in common use most of his life later understood a slur, or a bad word that has always been a slur alone and nothing else?
Always has been a slur. It’s an extremely rude word to use.
In roman dialet is pretty common.
Letting the mask slip, once nobody seemed to be looking…
Religion. Not even once
I think you can participate in a spiritual life without being an asshole. It’s unfortunate so many don’t.
Not really. Detaching one’s self from reality is inherently hostile to humanity’s future. It’s an asshole thing to do.
To be fair, we’re all assholes far more than we like to admit, religious or not. Being “spiritual” is not especially worse than a whole lot of other behaviors.
it’s in humans nature to make up shit so we think we know how the world works
Ok we’ll disagree then, I respect your opinion too.
Why would anyone respect an opinion? I respect your right to have an opinion. I respect your right to advocate for an opinion. Opinions themselves should have to earn respect.
This is a perfect example of the kind of harm that magical thinking must do to society in order to preserve itself. Your words sound egalitarian, but they make you an asshole without you even noticing it.
Name one example of a serious problem being faced by humanity that isn’t solidly rooted in undue respect for unchallenged ideas. I think that any philosophy that inherently encourages that kind of behavior is dangerous. I know full well that some people think that makes me an asshole, but I also know they will never try to actually support that belief. Now that’s irony.
The pope is not just religious. He’s basically a politician as well, which is the more concerning demographic for likelihood of being an asshole.
Whatever that is supposed to mean, I’m sure you can. But you shouldn’t expect anything of the kind from the head of an organisation with millennia of the most gruesome human rights abuses on their record.
Exactly.
Yeah, good luck advancing that belief here, lol.
It’s ok if people don’t agree with me, truly.
