Embrace the Religion You Were Born Into
The French Catholic novelist, Moriac, wrote a book called 'A Kiss for the Leper' which teaches that the redeemed and the redeemers are not who we expect. Another book by Moriac, 'The Anguish Enjoy of Christian Life,' likens the role of Nietzsche and Christianity to the role of horniness and Christianity, suggesting these aspects need to be addressed rather than ignored. The speaker criticizes online traditional Catholic converts, arguing that one should accept the religion they were born into rather than converting. This stance is compared to transphobia when extrapolated, but the speaker believes it is essential to stick to the original religion, particularly Christianity, which was more prominent historically; conversions seemed more plausible in ancient times compared to the self-conscious modern era.
