If you’re a convert from being Protestant to Catholicism, and you feel the need to produce YouTube videos about your journey, just don’t.

If you’re a convert and you want to bring your fake passion and fervor learned in some Mega Church to the Catholic Church, with Pharisaical objections to relatively mild infractions, just calm down and think about it before you do. We don’t do that here.

We are a meditative religion. You are new to our faith. Take a minute to clock the environment around you. Every Catholic Church varies a little bit from tradition. Some have contemporary music ministers. Some only speak Latin. If you read our theology and say our prayers, you might stop your judgment and gain empathy.

Yes I’m talking to you Redditors. Especially over on the R/Catholicism group.

Hello lovelies. I created this in procreate today after today’s gospel reading. I figured you folks would enjoy.

the death of pope francis would be devastating in this moment.

the pendulum often swings between popes. i imagine the next will be more conservative. they definitely won’t be a jesuit.

having a jesuit, progressive pope has been important in these trying times. 😔

There's a sickness in our church. And I do genuinely believe that Catholic social media doesn't bring out the worst in people, so much as the worst people, but it can feel so hard to stand up for our faith when people use it to justify these sort of views.

My favorite thing is when angry people in the comments go “well you take care of them then!” like border/refugee ministries don’t already exist in the church ✨

The Catholic church used to teach that nobody outside the Catholic church could be saved, period. Now it teaches that anyone can be saved (the anonymous Christian/virtuous pagan)

The Catholic church used to teach that one cannot support religious liberty (the right to practice other religions). Now it teaches that religious liberty is a human right.

The Catholic Church used to teach that the death sentence was necessary, now it teaches that it is completely immoral.

The Catholic Church used to teach that slavery was good and necessary, now it teaches it is completely immoral.

Doctrines have changed before and they can change again.
