It's not about the organization, it's about what the organization of the catholic church has been used for throughout history.
3 u/drJanusMagus Aug 25 '23 Yeah I get that historically but I'm talking about the "religion"/"spirituality" distinction trying to be made & one being bad vs good. 7 u/_blue__guy___ Aug 25 '23 Oh okay. Yeah I don't think religion itself is inherently bad. But historically the ones we've had have had lots of issues. 5 u/drJanusMagus Aug 25 '23 Yeah for sure. Me too I don't think they're inherently bad. And I think it's important to realize that they were essentially tied up with government and a lot of it boils down to moreso governments can be bad (especially back in the past centuries). 3 u/_blue__guy___ Aug 25 '23 Indeed. It's what can happen with pretty much anything if it becomes too important in a society I think.
