Defend the faith, guard our Pope. Always carry your Rosary to battle!

Why are all these annoying pro homeschool posts on that popped up on my dash made by pro life conservative Christians?!

More importantly, why do they always skip around the actual criticisms we have of these conservative homeschool groups? I didn’t always like school especially as an autistic youth but it allowed me to connect with queer/trans youth as someone who’s still figuring out who they are and start to educate myself on issues like the human rights violations by Israel that these homeschool types would have never taught because they threaten their worldview.

On christofacism and being a decent human being:

Merely wanting women and other child-bearing individuals to carry out their pregnancy isn’t Christofacism. Yet when the people who want to prevent abortions move to support legislation that prevents it being a legal option, then they are forcing people to live in a society that demands them to follow fascist tenants set by group of people who primary religion ends up being Christianity.

As far as being a decent human being, it’s my belief that a decent human being shouldn’t threaten homosexuals with violence because they want to celebrate the winter holidays without being reminded of Christianity. By the way, is this you?

To the LGBTQIA+ community: I, a cis-het man, wish you safety during the holidays and joyful fellowship with your loved ones.

To @that-catholic-shinobi : May God have Mercy on your wrathful soul.

PROPAGANDA

Itachi Uchiha

Itachi was evil!!!!!! Itachi did nothing wrong!!!!!! Itachi is the GOAT!!! Itachi loved Sasuke!!!!!!!! NO! WRONG! SHUT UP!!!!!! Itachi was a fucked up little man formed by his clan and the Shinobi nations to value power and loyalty above all. Because of the way the sharingan is activated trauma is inextricably linked to power which is why he keeps mind blasting him. He wants Sasuke to be powerful because he loves him, and to Itachi being powerful is the only way to survive the Shinobi world. That's why he does all those fucked up things to him. It doesn't mean he was right

Homura Akemi

She ends the world (over and over) for her love interest yet people say she does no wrong. She's take advantage of by a contractor and desperate yet people say she is pure villainy

There's been a decade long debate over this. She either did everything wrong or did nothing wrong. Probably the most controversial part of the franchise.

She's a 14 year old catholic lesbian, you'd be a little unhinged too. And sure, she did tear her beloved metaphysically in half after Madoka had ascended to godhood, but that was because she thought that that was what Madoka would have wanted. And she only imprisoned the human half because she didn't want Madoka to sacrifice herself again.But she had also stopped caring about anyone else, except instrumentally. She didn't ask the whole Madoka goddess if she endorsed her choice of becoming the embodiment of hope, and only listened to the fragment that said "uwu leaving my friends and family behind sounds scary" because she wanted Madoka back.Some parts of fandom tend to demonize her, some say her pivot to "villainy" in the movie came out of left field even though it's perfectly coherent with her previous characterization.

She kind of became the devil, BUT SHE DID IT FOR LOVE. So yeah it's a bit complicated but some people put her like this mega toxic devil whose forcing Madoka in a relationship OR that she would destroy all her friends just to see Madoka happy when she actually cares about them too, she's just willing to go to some extremes to meet her goals.

Madara Week Day 2 - Christ/Antichrist

The Saviour of this World and the Christ: A comparative analysis of Madara Uchiha and Jesus Christ

It’s Christmas time. Christians all over the world are preparing themselves for what they consider one of the most joyful holidays in the year: the birth of the Messiah, He who came to redeem the world. Meanwhile, the Madara enthusiasts are making a countdown for the birthday of the man who tried to save the ninja world by sacrificing his very self. In this meta, I intend to explain the connections, similarities and differences between Madara Uchiha and Jesus Christ that I’ve found over the years. I would also recommend to read “Is Madara our Lord and Saviour?” by @al-hekima-madara-blog for another very interesting meta on the topic. This is my contribution to day 2 of Madara Week, hosted by @uchiha-event.

A quick note before I start my rambling: I will be using the Douay-Rheims translation of the Bible (Roman Catholic translation), but there shouldn’t be any problem for readers of Protestant background as the difference between the Bibles used by both denominations are in the Old Testament and our focus will be the New Testament.

“I am here to save the world”

Naruto Shippuden, chapter 677

For God sent not his Son into the world, to judge the world, but that the world may be saved by him.

John 3:17

What is the purpose of Madara in this story? One would be tempted to say “because every shonen needs a villain”, but I think his purpose as a character was to expose the flaws within the shinobi system that ultimately corrupted a man who desired peace into someone whose sense of reality became so warped by the situations in his life that he started a war to achieve said peace. Madara didn’t make the Eye of the Moon plan to be evil and act dramatic, he made it with the final objective of launching an eternal dream that would guarantee no more conflict and the ideal life for anyone within it. He’s already been past judging the world, he wants to save it at the expense of himself. This is similar to how God is presented in the Old Testament compared to the New Testament: we first see a God who insists that his law is followed and that chastises those who trespass and disobey in several ocassions. But once we reach the New Testament, he becomes a loving figure that intends to save people from eternal doom in hell (”reality is hell”, anyone?). The point is that we have a man whose purpose in the world is to cleanse all forms of evil thorugh his being and who wants to bring salvation to anyone, regardless if the world agrees or not.

“I come here to bring you light and joy in a life that’s beyond this reality”

Naruto Shippuden, chapter 626

Jesus said to her: I am the resurrection and the life: he that believeth in me, although he be dead, shall live.

John 11:25

What does Madara mean when he says that “you can’t see it”? After following the storyline we conclude that he’s talking about the Eye of the Moon plan. Let’s add some tangents here, the people who were directly involved in the plan and helped Madara one way or another. They had no clue about what would happen exactly but they were convinced by the prospect of a peaceful life free of their struggles. In a certain way, they believed in Madara. The exact same thing can be seen with Jesus, who promises eternal life beyond the death of the physical body. Nobody knows how Heaven looks like but the believers trust him on that promise.

“I bring peace”

Naruto Shippuden, chapter 661

These things I have spoken to you, that in me you may have peace. In the world you shall have distress: but have confidence, I have overcome the world

John 16:33

Notice how Madara refers to the current state of the shinobi world as “Hashirama’s world”? In Christianity and the Bible, it is a common practice to separate “the world” and “the believers” as entities with entirely different mindsets and values. Madara sees the world as direct consequence of his nemesis, Hashirama, just as Christians see the evil in the world as the direct consequence of the sins of Lucifer. To “overcome the world”, when applied to Madara, refers to how he intends to use a power whose source is unknown (the power of the Sage of Six Paths) in order to end the paradox of Hashirama’s world. He is going to achieve peace to overwrite the current world and install his own world where the paradox is solved.

“I intend for you to acquire new identity within me”

Naruto Shippuden, chapter 665

If then any be in Christ a new creature, the old things are passed away, behold all things are made new.

2 Corinthians 5:17

And I live, now not I; but Christ liveth in me. And that I live now in the flesh: I live in the faith of the Son of God, who loved me, and delivered himself for me.

Galatians 2:20

I picked two of the letters in the New Testament in purpose, you may have noticed that the previous quotes come from the Gospel of John. Because the Gospel of John is a retelling of what Jesus did and said, whereas the letters (mostly from the apostle Paul) are reflections of the lives of the apostles after Jesus was gone. Similarly, Obito becomes Madara once Madara dies in the cave and walks in his shoes. Yesterday, I wrote a bit more about how Madara decomposed his humanity for the sake of his dream of peace. Here, we have Madara giving up his identity to anyone who embraces his goal, similarly to how Jesus signifies a brotherhood of believers. Madara also never writes down his autobiography or gets a space to present his POV, just as how all of what we know from Jesus is from the people close to him, not by his own word. In a sense, both become an entity for like-minded people to work towards a certain goal.

Thank you for reading this far, if you have any questions please use the ask box. It’s always a pleasure to have discussions and to talk about my favourite anime emo man.

that-catholic-shinobi is right wing and anti choice

I have no idea who that is but ok

[paula-of-christ]

which one (or more) of your mutuals would enjoy cathcord?

probably @thelegendofsqam maybe @a-really-big-cat @that-catholic-shinobi (and her husband, I can't tag him)

idk who else would be interested, but be warned, it's the discord for the subreddit r/Catholicism. You don't have to be a reddit user to be there, but sometimes..... people there have a different internet culture than Cathblr does

[leseigneurdufeu]

@that-catholic-shinobi

I am a little high but what if people proposed with beautiful, intricate knives. Ladies would gather around the table and be like “guess what finally happened!!” And pull this beautiful, intricate dagger out of her purse and all the other ladies would gasp and congratulate her

[a-frogge-bip-a-smal-beastie]

so I don't really use reddit but accidentally wound up on r/tumblr and....

@that-catholic-shinobi @consoleyourself you guys broke containment

ULTRA CROSS BEAM.

ULTIMATE CATHOLIC TECHNIQUE

[fairytale-poll]

Just a heads up, the post you just reblogged has a well known transphobe in the reblogs. the-catholic-shinobi is incredibly transphobic, equating being trans to being a pedo, and frequently posts anti-trans rhetoric on their blog.

Oh I had no idea! Thank you for pointing it out!

I'll delete that reblog and reblog an earlier version of the post before their addition. Just got to copy my tags from one post to the other.
