Title: Pope compares gender theory to nuclear weapons
Post by: Sigmaleph on February 20, 2015, 04:50:23 pm: According to Bergoglio... (http://ncronline.org/news/vatican/francis-strongly-criticizes-gender-theory-comparing-nuclear-arms)

Quote
He says every historical period has "Herods" that "destroy, that plot designs of death, that disfigure the face of man and woman, destroying creation."
"Let's think of the nuclear arms, of the possibility to annihilate in a few instants a very high number of human beings," he continues. "Let's think also of genetic manipulation, of the manipulation of life, or of the gender theory, that does not recognize the order of creation."

Recognising trans people, or anything outside the heteronormative paradigm, is dangerous on a scale comparable to genetic engineering and nuclear war.

Well then.

Post by: Sleepy on February 20, 2015, 05:23:25 pm: The "genetic manipulation" portion pisses me off too. I've heard plenty of people besides the Pope speak against any sort of genetic modifications because you're "playing god" in the process. Yeah, what a dick move it is to alter a gene that causes debilitating, life-threatening conditions. But no, your god is totally benevolent.

Except that we still have free will. The Bible clearly states that God will not try to stop people from doing "wrong" things anymore (not after the flood.)

Post by: Art Vandelay on February 21, 2015, 04:50:04 pm: Not to mention all the times he had entire societies wiped out because they were "doing the wrong thing".

M-28/9 Davy Crockett Weapon System, am I right? That's a nasty nuclear fucker of a recoilless rifle, right there.

Heliocentrism, completely unnatural-creation has an order to it you know!
