i did not say the churhc has ALWAYS been wrong. my point is the church has been wrong MORE THAN ONCE and seeing people protesting just because their religion opposes it is wrong.
YES it is about the pope and the catholic church and i am NOT off-topic because the pope condemns same sex marriage. source
to further strengthen my topic, this is a list of wrongful beliefs that the past pope(s) believed.
Flat Earth:
Pope Zachary decided that "if it shall be clearly established that he professes belief in another world and other people existing beneath the earth, or in another sun and moon there, thou art to hold a council, and deprive him of his sacerdotal rank, and expel him from the church."
Geocentrism:
In 1664, Pope Alexander VII published his Index Librorum Prohibitorum Alexandri VII Pontificis Maximi jussu editus which included all previous condemnations of geocentric books
Punishment of anyone who opposed with evidence:
The geocentric view had been dominant since the time of Aristotle, and the controversy engendered by Galileo's presentation of heliocentrism as proven fact resulted in the Catholic Church's prohibiting its advocacy as empirically proven fact, because it was not empirically proven at the time and was contrary to the literal meaning of Scripture. Galileo was eventually forced to recant his heliocentrism and spent the last years of his life under house arrest on orders of the Roman Inquisition.

what im saying is that people shouldnt believe something just because their authorative figure says so.
RIGHT POPEY, MY LOVE? <3<3 :pope: :pope: :pope:
