And she was vilified for it. Ahead of her time.
She said “Fight the real enemy” while tearing up the pic.
She was ahead of her time and extremely strong. Doing the right thing was more important to her than money. RIP.
I remember that…
Ireland got proper fucked by the church it seems. There was a “Behind the bastards” episode about it. Highly recommended if you want to get mad
Everywhere the Catholic church has ever been, it’s consistently fucked everyone over. It is a leviathan of abuse and harmful politics.
Then she joined a cult based around venerating a pedophile prophet.
30 years later, after some very public mental health struggles. She was a humanitarian with a big heart and a lot of courage. Don’t try a take away from a dead woman’s accomplishments because of personal choices toward the end of her life.
Oh no judging a person by… their actions.
She died a hypocrite.
You seem like a person who has no grasp on the nuances of life
That’s one description, but in context it’s misleading. If we wanted to talk about Christianity or Judaism we could look at the Bible and find shocking things there as well. And maybe we should. But that’s a totally different discussion from bad things that the Catholic Church did in the 1900s.
Jesus was a hippy, who whipped scammers at a temple. Mohommed raped a nine year old and was a warlord.
Exactly. You’re trying to compare things that people probably did 1500+ years ago with things that happened in our lifetimes. There’s no way to attain justice for actions that happened over a millennia ago, and it doesn’t really make sense to try.
If you want to convince people that organized religion is shit, I think you have a lot of good ammunition on hand, including some of the things that you mentioned. I’m not sure you’re going to turn people off to Islam by mentioning that Muhammad was a warlord, though.
They still worship him, hell they still add “Peace be unto him” after his name, a man who ordered murders.

You literally started the whatsboutism in your original comment there buddy lol

So did I. Here’s another one: you don’t know what whatsboutism is.
Just out of curiosity, what do you suggest I’d tell a psychiatrist? That I have a fear of facts or something? I’m incredibly curious how your toxic little mind works.
It’s better to just downvote, really. You are always running the risk that you’re helping a troll earn his paycheque. I’m sure this fellow is not being paid, he seems very dedicated to dunking on [women with mental illness] on a personal level.
(edit for grammatical clarity; “mentally ill” is still often used pejoratively by people like the one you’re responding to…)

All religions are cults.
By the way are you counting all the different sects as a singular group? In some places the cultists would kill you for that.

it’s not like apostasy is a requirement for the definition of a cult.
depending on which of the dictionary definitions you’re going by, a cult could be anything from a religious system of veneration for a figure, to a group with extreme beliefs outside of that of an established religion.
to me it seems like the only common denominator for all of the definitions is that the group is smaller than that of a religion.
