      Masturbation is also worse than rape if I understand this shit correctly.

        Yes, and don't forget that rape is more "natural" than masturbation. It's just math!

          In the amazing 4 dimensional clown ethics model murder is a one dimensional sin, rape is a two dimensional sin and masturbation a three dimensional sin. Maybe at that point the theology expert should have realized what bullshit has been produced here.

    Jesus this is awful. What I hate the most is the pretentiousness. Calling things "dimensions" to sound smart when you mean "category in a list of things I just made up". Using math symbols as if it makes your rambling more profound. Hey I used 1 and 0 instead of saying "is this and is not this". It's in brackets too, so you can't understand it unless you're a math genius like me.

      They are vectors. You write them in brackets. They have dimensionality, like, that's what it's called.

      Not that it isn't pretentious, or that the analogy of Euclidean distance lends anything to his assertions

        Boy did they! One was obsessed with proving philosophically that Muslims were evil. One was obsessed how history apparently proved that the crusades were justified. A couple were cool loner types who just liked hiking and were very worldly. One was obsessed with the history of Latin and how the church went downhill since it stopped being used.

          Such a complete and utter waste of time that is distracting people from having any coherent ethical beliefs or politics at all.

    However, on a practical level, you are right to say that we must work to suppress heterosexual sin as well, because it is from heterosexuals that homosexuals take their license to sin. How much sin have heterosexuals committed in the name of "love", and how much ammunition have they given the LGB types with that word?

        That's not a crazy Catholic thing though? It's a pretty basic cath belief. No birth control, no masturbation, no gay sex and all… just because many do it anyways doesn't mean it's an uncommon belief lol.

          The more “liberal” or left Catholics ease up on this. Thomas Merton flat out said that if you think gay sex is more sinful then masturbarion you are wrong, and a lot of jesuit thinkers have talked about the overhype for madtuebation for ages.

          I think this is in general a huge issue with Catholics measuring sins. Because this shit shown here is the logical conclusion.

        that's not crazy, in fact it's perfectly consistent with the mainstream pro-natalist ideology of liberalism.

      Catholics believe that thinking of commiting a sin is the same as acting on it "I confess that I have sinned in my thoughts, my words and my deeds… through my fault, my most grievous fault".

      I don't know how a gay couple who doesn't have sex (and isn't asexual) would avoid like… being horny every once in a while. It would be a life of sin for them if they stay together.

          To be the devil's advocate here there are a ton of catholics in the world and the pope expressing even a small amount of tolerance may help some of them to rethink their beliefs on gay people

      That's the point. After all, it's Catholicism we're talking about. Their entire business model breaks down if you don't constantly commit hot sins you can then confess and atone for.

      The weirdest thing is that there is like 0 reason to do the weird math analogy. It adds nothing. It would be like saying "this is like a butane molecule, because it is made up of many smaller parts". Completely unnecessary. All this says is "sins are equally bad so if you have more it is worse".

      Tldr let's do a "points system" for sins, where every sin can be constructed out of a relatively small subcategory of sins.

      I am very intelligent.
