However, I can still question their judgement, not just for standing in line for so long to see a dead body, but also in contributing their time, attention, spirits and money to an organization (the Catholic church) I wouldn't do it. which, as any educated person knows, has a reputation that's dubious, at best. I'd clarify that to say "dubious, at worst". Then I might agree with you. The Catholic church has done far more good than bad in the last couple of centuries. Yeah...as long as you weren't a native of a country that already had a perfectly fine spiritual tradition to begin with. Example? Don't be an asshole. You went to school. You're aware of examples. I just want you to give me examples of what *you* consider to be "perfectly fine spiritual traditions". Sacrificial virgins? Cannibalism? Polygamy? Sorry, tooth-boy, but this discussion has apparently become one which, like many employment opportunities, assumes a certain level of education. Better luck next time. You're just afraid to put your name to a post that defends human sacrifice, cannibalism, and polygamy. And you're afraid to admit that there were civilizations in this hemisphere, before priests arrived, which did not practice any of these things you've mentioned. But of course, there were. Oh....and you can remove polygamy from your list. It may have been (and may still be) appropriate for some cultures. If you're capable of thinking, you can come up with some reasons why. If not, too bad. |
