Catholicism is not an aesthetic.

The Pope is not just “some guy” you can throw into your story as an (oppressive) authority figure.

The Blessed Virgin Mary is not some ambiguous pretty woman to be used as as pseudo-symbolism.

St. Joan of Arc is not your cool historical woman.

Rosaries are not pretty necklaces.

These people and things are not just… “things” you can just use as archetypes or “symbolism” for your story. They have histories, they have stories, they have meanings.

op can i kin you

what are you gonna do op, convert me about it?
