That's certainly an airtight argument. It's like the opposite of an Alter Boy's anus.

Words are ****ing meaningless when your actions contradict them so egregiously.

Writings are meaningless when the actions of an organization as a whole do not live up to them. The Bible might as well be toilet paper when considering the cover ups of the pedophile priests and the entire church's complicity in them.

That very first section advocates using any means necessary to spread the word of God. That can be used to justify a hell of a lot.

Doesn't say anything in there about rape being bad. Cool now that's justified too.

Shall I go on?

1) The word Catechism is retarded.

2) I'm not going to open that link because it's related to Catholicism so it's probably kiddie porn and I'm not a priest.

Instead of having other people read this vacuous nonsense, how about you show us the parts that aren't meaningless drivel.

That would require thought. Catholicism ain't about that.

It's amazing how many words they're able to use to say essentially nothing though.
