Jeff Geerling is a catholic who believes women can't and shouldn't be priests because priests "act as jesus" and jesus was apparently a man. Jesus wasn't white either so it would stand to reason that white people can't be priests.

My name is Thomas Mauricius. I was named for a Catholic saint who led an entire Roman legion — thousands of soldiers — and chose massacre over renouncing his faith. Every last man in the Theban Legion followed him into martyrdom rather than persecute fellow Christians. Remarkable, really, what people will die for. These days, of course, you just need an algorithm to get thousands to follow you unquestioningly.

Then, a crop of hatchlings spawned, to spread the queen's infection...

Snakes in The Garden of Innocence
=======================

After days of hiking, the missionaries came across a tribe living in isolation from civilization. The tribals were surprised to see outsiders, but were very welcoming and hospitable, showing the missionaries around the village, like children, excited to have guests, and eager to show them around their little world. They usually walked around nude, wearing nothing but flowers and smiles. They laughed a lot, the loud laughter of carefree people. In a few days, the missionaries had learned some of their mellifluous language. They told the tribals to receive the Word of God, and become Christians, which greatly confused the tribe. The missionaries pushed on, telling them that they had to be saved, which caused the tribe to guffaw, and roar with laughter. A silver haired matriarch spoke up and said they were fine, and didn't understand what they needed to be saved from. Frustrated, a missionary put a movie on his laptop to keep the tribe busy, while the missionaries held a meeting to discuss how to convert these heathen. While they were in the meeting, the tribe gathered around the laptop, and watched "The Passion of The Christ", transfixed. After watching the movie, the whole tribe made a beeline to be saved, with aghast expressions.

Je ne suis pas croyant. Mais je revendique être #catholique . La venue du #Pape et cette messe sur les champs me ravissent.
Il est temps de rappeler et d'affirmer haut et fort que la France est chrétienne.
Samedi à 15h les cloches de toutes les églises vont sonner💒

My name is Andrew Kim. I was named for a Catholic saint who was the first native-born Korean martyr — beheaded at twenty-five for smuggling Christianity across the Chinese border. Remarkable tradecraft for the nineteenth century. Something tells me he'd have found social media a far more efficient — and considerably less fatal — way to spread a message.
