This transphobic, anti-gender theory, anti-abortion doctrine of theirs has me completely done with them.

I’m not a rageaholic, but you wouldn’t know it when I heard this story come on my news feed. Profanities that came out of me were full-throated, long-winded, and unbecoming.

I was raised Catholic and for a long time since they decided to bless same-sex marriages I was okay with the Catholic Church but what do you know? Just like that. Now I’m anti-Catholic.

They’re basically saying that everyone is made perfect in God’s image and that by changing your sex your violating that perfection and somehow violating your own dignity? Like, they’re trying to say that changing your gender is separating yourself from your soul somehow? I’m done with these people.

Here is a link to the actual document that they produced. Would you believe it took him 5 years to come up with this garbage?

Forgive me if this is the wrong place to post this.

      What I’ve observed is that inside the Catholic Church it’s seen as something quite similar to American politics where you have the left and the right and they’re both pushing separate agendas within the organization and it truly is just as political and it truly is just as divided but the problem is what they’re doing here is making a statement that represents the entire organization and that statement is gut-wrenchingly bigoted.

      After a certain point regardless of where you stand if an organizations doctrine is in disagreement with your own values You’ve got to just leave and the problem is a lot of the progressives just won’t leave Catholicism.

      Hopefully this statement changes that and they see a mass exodus. Pun intended.
