In a heartwarming example of interfaith solidarity, ultraconservative Catholics and ultraconservative Muslims have put their differences aside to join forces in burning down some schools for teaching about consent and the existence of LGBT people.

Flax_vert,

The article only mentions Islam

SitD,

doesn’t change the fact that the church is notoriously unaccepting towards personal freedom to exist whenever their God created someone non-binary. 😶‍🌫️

Flax_vert,

Do Roman Catholics ever go as far as to burn down schools, though?

ProvableGecko,

They have gone as far as assassinating doctors and bombing abortion clinics so I wouldn’t put it beyond them

Flax_vert,

Tbf that’s probably less so because “we disagree with you” like this case and probably moreso “we believe we are genuinely saving lives”

ProvableGecko,

Cool

MrScottyTay,

Terrorists often think they’re the good guys and doing it for a higher cause.

akrot,

Ah yes, nuclear weapons and machine guns are the same.

Murvel,

Oh well, let us just wonder as to what group might be responsible.

Several Islamic groups have also condemned the program in a joint statement, fearing it will favor “hypersexualization” of children.

Ah well.

Surprise!

Zuberi,

Fuck this energy. Also points a number of other fingers…

Murvel,

Also points a number of other fingers…

What does this even mean?

Anyway, this is the energy you need to embrace if you care about a secular society. And fuck it all if I ever submit to religious fanatical cooks.

Zuberi,

I genuinely shouldn’t be surprised your reading comprehension level is so low. Idk what I expected of this interaction tbh.

Murvel,

It’s your English lacking, I don’t understand what you mean even, explain.

Point other fingers at what? It’s like you tried to write a complete sentence and failed…

Zuberi,

Where are you from :)?

Maybe the intended idiom, or either of the other 2 interpretations of the wording, have confused you because of nationality differences?

Murvel,

What in the everloving fuck are you talking about? I’m asking you to explain what you meant, when you said to

also point a number of other fingers

It’s not even an idiom. It just sounds like you just misquoted the actual idiom ‘pointing fingers at’

Zuberi,

At this point It’s going to be more fun for myself to leave you in the dark.

You may always wonder from this moment onward why people upvoted me and down-voted you.

One day when you least expect it, I’ll give you a hint :)

Murvel,

Oh, grow up, I don’t care about points, lmao. I just thought you wanted to discuss the subject, why else waste the time.

catsan,

I also didn’t understand what you meant by that. What did you mean by that?

reverendsteveii,

I’ll spoil it for them: it’s because they’re dumb, combative, openly chauvinistic and convinced that anything they can’t understand is the fault of the person explaining it to them when what you said was clear, concise and demonstrably correct.

Murvel,

You have got to be joking. We asked the person to clarify a confused idiom. How the fuck did you equate that with whatever drivel you just wrote?

reverendsteveii,

religious fanatical cooks

My chef is Catholic but he’s pretty relaxed about it, does that count?

Murvel,

Is he a fanatic?

reverendsteveii,

Why do they use the word “also” in the quote you cherry picked? Who does the “also” refer to?

Murvel,

I don’t fucking know, ask AP, they published the article.

reverendsteveii,

We both already know the answer. It’s the people whose bigotry you chose to ignore when you were singing out muslims for being bigots.

Murvel,

No, we don’t both know the answer. That’s just you making assumptions, I’m guessing, based on your political views. I’m not ignoring anything I quoted the article, simple as.

Pringles,

It refers to conservative catholic movements.

reverendsteveii,

I wonder why, when the article clearly shows that this is an interfaith movement toward intolerance and violence, the comment OP chose only to highlight Islamic involvement

Drusas,

Would be nice if the article included any information about said sex ed program.

tryptaminev,

It is a normal sex ed program that exists since half a century as the article points out. Having to justifiy teaching children about sex, risk of stds and consent must not be justified against vile lies of extremists.

pizzaiolo,

Basically, when mommy and daddy love each other very much,

DV8,

Can’t find an English article but you could find a translator of your choice for vrt.be/…/geen-pornopromotie-of-genderindoctrinati… as they go decently in depth I to it.

It’s basically a tool to answer questions of children at different ages. Going from what makes boys different from girls, that consent is important, that violence in relationships is not normal or ok, that they should watch out with sending naked pictures of themselves and also that if they do get a naked picture from a partner it’s not ok to send it to others, or that what you see in porno is not at all representative for actual sex. Etc, etc.

Drusas,

That sounds like a great program. Thanks for looking into that for me.

SquiffSquiff,

Danger! High Voltage!

What kind of sex education causes arson? The hands on kind.

tryptaminev,

Given that the radical religious groups and right wing extremists want to return the education and society to medieval times i find this joke completely out of place.

nitefox,

Acsually, modern society is more puritan than early-mid medieval

DragonTypeWyvern,

This varied wildly by time and place, just like today.

taladar,

One that gets students very, very hot I assume?
