Catholics and other religious types upset with the Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence need a reality check. Do you want to know what’s worse than making fun of religion? Sexual abuse of children. Clayton Kershaw, Marco Rubio and other conservatives pissy about the Los Angeles Dodgers honoring a satire group at its LGBTQIA+ Pride Night should look in a mirror and ask themselves the hard questions first.

Given how much religious fanatics love to oppress people with bible verses, here’s a pretty common one for them:
So when they continued asking him, he lifted up himself, and said unto them, He that is without sin among you, let him first cast a stone at her.
That pesky verse is John 8:7 from the New Testament. It details Jesus Christ explaining to others why a woman who committed adultery should not be stoned. And yet seemingly no hardline Christian can be bothered to practice it, let alone comprehend this message.
This brings us back to Catholics being upset with the Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence. Maybe instead of whining about a group promoting inclusivity, you should sort out your own organization which continues to allow child molestation to run rampant.
The same goes for other religious zealots wading in on the topic. The Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence would not exist if organized religion wasn’t such a cesspool of bigotry, corruption and other nefarious acts. By the way, that’s not anything new. From the moment a religion is organized, someone is trying to use it as a means to manipulate others.
But back to the original topic at hand. Journeyman MLB pitcher Trevor Williams felt a need to add his two cents as a “devout catholic” and went on some pointless rant about discrimination. That is rich considering just how much the catholic church has discriminated against others over the years.
It could also be argued that Williams is a shitty catholic for having a bunch of tattoos. Leviticus 19:28 makes it pretty clear that a person should not mark his or her body. Of course, he won’t want to hear that because religious types believe it’s cool for them to pick and choose what bible verses do and don’t apply to them.
Catholics and other religious types upset with the Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence need to look in the mirror because, chances are, they’re running afoul of their own teachings. Either get your values in check or stop throwing stones.
