    These people who have obviously never been Catholic are really down on the whole “Catholics use Father and Pastor interchangeably” thing lol. This is crazy. A Catholic wouldn’t address their priest as “Pastor” holy shit.

      I thought I was taking crazy pills. I grew up Catholic and the sentence gave me such a weird creeped-out feeling.

      This is cultural uncanny valley.

      • Yeah exactly. Like, I’m not Christian anymore so I’m not saying it’s bad to not to go church, but like, are all the people arguing about this Christmas Catholics or something??? I’ve never heard of a Catholic who goes to weekly mass calling their priest “Pastor” lol
