Priests burning Harry Potter and Twilight books in Poland

[Havarland]

Still wondering if those items are newly bought. I would find it hilarious if they where.

I asked from one of my Polish pals and she said that the people who joined with book burning brought their own books from home.

Changing your mind is a dangerous act. It is dangerous to ‘the Truth’, which the priest and society has a duty to propagate and preach (particularly the priest in this case). It is precisely dangerous because it challenges ‘the Truth’.

Once more, the solution is found in the Poland Balls web comic: "*(#$&*$%* YOU I'M PROTESTANT"!!

Marxists, Hitler, and State Atheism used this logic to crush their dissidents. Thisi s the mantra of all tyrants and all villains everywhere. Heck, the homosexual lobby uses this mindset against anyone who contradicts their "Truth", and they will try to bankrupt and jail people for disagreeing. Abortionists in some countries want to force Christians to perform abortons, and Catholic adoption agencies are being driven out because htey only ptu kids with a mother and a father.

Your mindset is literally that of Marxists, militant Atheists, homosexual radicals, baby killers, and dare I say, FASTING NAZIS. Do you REALLY want to suppress free speech you don't like? It will be turned on you in a moment's notice.

The distance and the means by which you go to exterminate ‘lies’ and so forth depends on ‘the Truth’. This is left up to society, a supposed free place like America and the Western World still exterminate ideas they don’t like. For instance, the Fifth Lateran Council, ‘Canon Three: On Heretics’ talks about the extermination of heretics, mostly involving confiscation of property and eviction with State assistance, but as historian John C. Moore notes, ‘The canon, like Innocent’s earlier decretal Vergentis in senium, did not call for the death penalty either for heretics or for their supporters.’ (Pope Innocent III (1160/61-1216): To Root Up and to Plant, pg. 241)

In this case, the priests has a duty to protect the Faith and if Harry Potter is a threat, then he will suppress it in his parish, which he has jurisdiction over.

she claimed [...] that Dumbledore was gay,

The Unforgivable Sin apparently.

[Pax Nerdvana]

I thought this was NS related at first. I don't like the idea of burning most books (Twilight is fine to burn), but there's freedom of expression, so they can do it.

[The Batavia]

Oh wow, this is something from an NS issue

[Andsed]

she claimed [...] that Dumbledore was gay,

The Unforgivable Sin apparently.

Well the main issue is that she never put this in the book and has just been doing this to make the book look more diverse than it really is. The only real purpose to do this is to suck up to progressives which people find annoying.

Then you don't have the truth anymore. You have a subjective dogma which you demand everyone else conform to. People who actually have objective truth on their side don't have to burn and censor liars, just see evolutionary scientists and young earth creationists.

woke brands

[Xmara]

I’m totally okay with them burning Twilight

But in all seriousness, burning books is horrible. It’s pointless and accomplishes nothing, besides supporting the authors that they despise (irony).

We might forgive her eventually if she'd just stop tweeting new things about the books.

Sitting around counting her money has to be kind of boring.

[Nationific]

Those poor books.

Exactly.

[Dumb Ideologies]

Burning Harry Potter and Twilight? So last decade.

You can only fully destroy the books with basilisk venom or fiendfyre, of course. A brave move, though, as JK Rowling's reality-altering quill will surely make these priests retrospectively gay.

They're Catholic priest, so in this case, they likely really were gay all along.

The modern priesthood is a diverse, progressive institution; all paedophiles are welcome regardless of their gender preference.

Right, let's not go there.

Burning Twilight books should be a humanitarian duty.

I so hate you

Except the very existence of young earth creationists contradicts you. People still deny ‘the Truth’ and believe in ‘lies’. People often believe in lies. You’re assuming that the truth will naturally win over a falsehood in someone. Just like falsehoods, the Truth needs to be affirmed lest lies infest the mind.

True enough, I can't imagine how much internet posting I'd get through if I had no other demands on my time.

[Eglaecia]

Good. Not for this reason, mainly because JK Rowling is a demon and promotes evil, and her writing skills are terrible.

Ah yes making mockery of contemporary progressive attitudes towards sexuality is a no no but insinuating that Catholic Priests are all gay is okay? I wonder if you'd be as silent if someone were to insinuate all Imams were terrorists, or all Rabbis were pedophiles for Bris Milah mouth suction.

[Cameroi]

fanatics gonna be fanatics
just try not to leave them unsupervised by something more sane.

On the other hand, those books were the biggest thing to happen on the Olympic Peninsula since The Egg and I.

[Hanafuridake]

You're giving her way too much credit.

[Ifreann]

That's a bit unfair.

I mean, she's not a demon.

She's a Witch or a Demon, pick your poison.

Nope, I'm spot on.

Seriously the meme of her being a little loopy gets turned into her being the sjw Antichrist too much

[Major-Tom]

If I recall, there’s no line between petty attempts at self promotion and being a god damn demon spawn.

Like the two are interchangeable, yeah?
