But they didn't want you either.

Stop projecting. Is that how you feel in Germany? Such a sad life for little folksdeutsche like you.

How so?

geez, didn't I say it before? You let me look down on you because you are slow, and then you claim that I do not treat you right.
Because claiming that people with similar political views are 'something or other' is pure prejudice. For those on the left who claim to love humanity, being tolerant and open to all kinds of different views, to say those who do not support left-wing or centrist ( as defined by us) are bad is contradictory to all those assumed left-wing virtues. In fact, it is hypocrisy. Do you understand now?

They should strive for sainthood, though.

They are humans thought. Do not expect from others more than you expect from yourself.

You contradict yourself then. You wrote the opposite before.

Not really, it depends on what we are discussing. Are we talking about sins such as fornicating, drinking, or gambling, or are we addressing more serious crimes like child abuse? These are different degrees of transgression, and one could be forgiven while the other may not be.

And the reality is that people won't follow hypocrites.

Not hypocrites but weak human beings. They are needed too, as they provide a background for the good priests to shine. People shouldn't follow priests; they should follow the teachings of God.

News / Poland's aid to Ukraine if Russia invades - part 26 [1183]

Poles want to belong to the west and want recognition for their westernness.

Poles belonging to Western civlization and yes, we want to be recognized by our civilization, that's basic. However, we are a part of the Western civlization and our greatness lies in exerting our influence to the east.
The case of Ukraine shows that our work wasn't in vain.

but my translation of a sarcastic comment from the internet:

You posted it for some reason, and I guess rather because you agree with it, not disagree.
However, the crux of the matter is that the post you agreed with was hypocritical in itself.

and they should lead by example

They should, but they are not saints. Even if they fail in their duty to lead by example, they can and should still do their job. I dislike simpletons' views on what constitutes leadership, priesthood, and all matters concerning them.

News / Poland's aid to Ukraine if Russia invades - part 26 [1183]

What I realize, and what you realize, and... what matters... can be three different things.

What matters is the philosophical question, not for PF.
What I realize and what you realize could be different things.
However, I'm not wrong in understanding what Maf wrote and its implications for (I stress) a person from Western civilization.

What it means, filtered by your Russian civilization, you can tell me.
Or is it Russian gaslighting, as in I'm so deep and mysterious Russian soul that you can't insult me BS?

You realize you just wrote an ode to Russians,

You realize that those are not good things he posted. It is viewed less as a different civilization ( I grant you that status ) but as one of some inferior groups that are beneath us (Western civlization).

they lecture non-clergy Catholics on keeping their vows

That is their job. What is your issue? What matters is whether they are good at their job or not. You don't ask a car mechanic about the state of his own car and so on. As long as he is doing a good job on your car, that is all you care about. Suddenly, you mind if a priest does his job? Let me tell you, anyone who has a problem with a priest talking about sin, dogma, and so on is, at best, misguided and likely a full-time fool. I ask you, what do you care?

"Rightwingers being hypocritical? News to me."

It's a long-winded and convoluted way of saying that some people with a certain worldview are hypocrites. I can agree that some people, regardless of their views, might be hypocritical, and all of us can be hypocrites at times. Your statement, of course, is nonsense, as are many of your conclusions.

What's funny is that you claim to be an open and tolerant person, willing to consider all points of view. You phrase it better, but I have no time to waste on phrasing it the same way left-wing people do.

At the same time, you brush all kinds of people with the same broad stroke simply because they are not left-wing. If that isn't hypocrisy, then what is? What do you have to say about that?

They reject the premise of backwardness itself. They think we have our own unique civilization, based on communitarianism and autocracy,

That is not a new premise. Already present in the 19th century
Russian thought. I say lame excuses. Unless you say that is what our civilization is about, it won't be better, so we have to get used to it.
, like Dugin and Panarin.

Those other people are real reformers and intellectuals; at least they dig deep. Dugin and Panarin are charlatans playing it safe and supporting the current system, giving it pseudo-intellectual support. I guess for a Russian, it must be very attractive and a safe option at the same time, as they can present their blind support of the authorities as a deep philosophical thought.

Well, half are overweight and half are obese.

In your case, which part of you is overweight and which is obese? Can you even tell?

Russia is a

Russia is a different civilization, not something to be admired. You can afford to be flippant about its dangers. Less lucky people need to take it seriously.
One day, when you miss your step and Russia is still around you will learn why you are being called stupid Yankee.

It's truly laughable. You are one big whimp.

It is a mystery of the female brain how you arrived at such a conclusion.
- On average, prostitutes are dumb like F, hence my reflection.
-you are a fool, not my equal That is not intended as an insult; it is simply a statement of the truth.
All you understood was - you are mean, and when I pointed it out, you are a wimp.
You are a typical female intellectual, lol! Keep it coming.

I don't have any at home.

That is the whole point. Once you have a couple of illegal migrants in your house, pay their expenses from your own pocket, you are a hypocrite if you, in any shape or form, encourage lenient policy towards illegal migrants.

If there are no good priests, then there should be no priests." - I laughed.

Well, I think like this: It may be seen as an unrealistic or even naive position for some who don't believe. I assume that Providence would send individuals to be good priests. If not, the fault lies with the people, unworthy scum.

In short, there is nothing to worry about if we stick to the standards.

Said by someone who spend half of his post offending

That is typical female nonsense. You don't address the issue nor talk about arguments, you start getting personal - oh, you are mean.
Look, if you are looking for niceties, you should look somewhere else. The PF is not about niceties that clearly enough.

about homosexuals in this thread isn't based on anything but your prejudices

No, it is based on data that is out there. Check the statistics of domestic abuse in female couples and compare them with the statistics on normal couples. If you can think, you will come back here and apologize to me.

don't follow celibacy

Even if they don't - so what? I mean, first of all, Alleged research that statesthe real scale is greater reeks of being a propagandistic piece, not academic research. If we assume for the sake of discussion that they are right, so what? You don't care about the Church, nor do you care about its teachings. Why do you care about the sex life or sexless life of some men? Are you a prevert?
