After a few years of no contact his dad started to pass away from cancer, so he showed up to say goodbye to his father that loved him his whole life until he came out and his father looked at him and said "I think you need to leave", so he walked away from his dad who had weeks to live and that was it.
I can't believe what religion can do to some people, it's crazy.

It’s the people who are disgusting, not the religion. Assigning human traits to an organization is fruitless. People are hateful, people are hypocritical, people are gullible, people are stupid.
I guarantee Catholicism has no thoughts on the subject. Religion is the justification/excuse to act like a POS and not feel guilty about it.
Also, paging undercoverbrother. Shouldn't he be calling you guys ####ing morons for generalizing about an entire group of people?
