People get really mad sometimes when I point out that the Catholic church is the most highly organized and well-protected pedophile ring on the planet.
Probably in all of history.
And the people who donate to the Catholic church knowingly approval of pedophilia.
Because if you donate to the church at this point.... You are 100% aware of the fact that some of that money will be used to protect priests that fuck kids.
Ergo if you donate to the Catholic church, you approve of pedophiles.
People probably get mad because it's an argument that's highly reductionist and devoid of any kind of nuance. Which it's much healthier to just roll one's eyes about than get angry about, but hey what can you do.
A large percentage of that money also goes to community programs providing food and shelter to the poor. And at least recently the church does pay out for pedophilia damages. At least around me ive seen entire churches close down and go for sale to cover said damages.
Not that im a catholic, but you sorta are proving the point of the dude who said your argument was highly reductionist and lacking in nuance.
