Oh man, you're right. It is the same girl. Here's the link from the last time it was posted: https://communities.win/c/KotakuInAction2/p/15K6gxkJUc/x/c
Here's my TL;DR of the case:
- Girl starts to call herself a boy in school after being groomed by teachers. Her parents learned too late after an incident in which she was threatened with rape by the boys in the school's boys bathroom.
- Girl escapes with some men she met online under promises of a new family. She gets repeatedly raped and underage porn is shot of her. The FBI found her and put her in a girls detention facility.
- The parents were barred from seeing her and were informed that they were now being investigated for child abuse over "misgendering" her.
- The public attorney apparently convinced the girl to claim her parents had mistreated her.
- Parents begged for her to be placed in a more comfortable environment. The state transferred her to a boy's ward of a children's home, were she was sexually abused again.
- After months, the parents were cleared of the allegations, but the state didn't relinquish parental rights back to them.
- The girl was sent to some public school and made to wear a GPS tracking device.
- Finally the state gave up parental rights, but the attorney representing the girl appealed. During this time, the girl disappeared again, apparently kidnapped by the same men who used her.
- She was eventually found and brought back to her parents. They put her into a behavioral healthcare center for trauma.
- Even though she no longer called herself a boy, the center kept trying to "affirm" her "gender."
- Girl is now back with her parents and done with the gender nonsense after having been molested, raped, and made to shoot underage pornography.
- Girl now has panic attacks and other issues stemming from the ordeal.
I've read all LN's and every part has its place in the general story of Rudeus' life. The anime is synthesizing every important event as much as it can. Granted, the school arc is perhaps the slowest in the saga, but it'll pick up the pace again soon.
- Mushoku Tensei for isekai adventure.
- Ascendance of a Bookworm for isekai importing of earth innovations.
- Konosuba for isekai lightheartedness.
- Overlord for isekai overpowered easy mode plus edgyness.
I've ended up all the way into LNs for those. They all have some anime and manga. Begin with the anime and if you like it, you'll gravitate towards the manga and maybe then the LNs if you need more.
- Separate mention for Saga of Tania the Evil: it has a fun anime, but I abandoned the LN because it reads like ponderous military battle analysis and I got bored.
I stand corrected, it looks like he is a heretic. Reading the thread again, I think my mistake was in jumping at the phrase "They also have full support from the liberal Catholic Clergy" which sounded to me like a claim that the clergy in general was corrupted, instead of a scattering of wayward individuals. I jumped the gun 🤷.
Being gay itself isn't a sin. Fornication (with the same sex or otherwise) is a sin. Cultivating lustful thoughts is also a sin. The sin of scandal may also be relevant.
2357 - 2359 of the Catholic Catechism:
2357 Homosexuality refers to relations between men or between women who experience an exclusive or predominant sexual attraction toward persons of the same sex. It has taken a great variety of forms through the centuries and in different cultures. Its psychological genesis remains largely unexplained. Basing itself on Sacred Scripture, which presents homosexual acts as acts of grave depravity,141 tradition has always declared that "homosexual acts are intrinsically disordered."142 They are contrary to the natural law. They close the sexual act to the gift of life. They do not proceed from a genuine affective and sexual complementarity. Under no circumstances can they be approved.
2358 The number of men and women who have deep-seated homosexual tendencies is not negligible. This inclination, which is objectively disordered, constitutes for most of them a trial. They must be accepted with respect, compassion, and sensitivity. Every sign of unjust discrimination in their regard should be avoided. These persons are called to fulfill God's will in their lives and, if they are Christians, to unite to the sacrifice of the Lord's Cross the difficulties they may encounter from their condition.
2359 Homosexual persons are called to chastity. By the virtues of self-mastery that teach them inner freedom, at times by the support of disinterested friendship, by prayer and sacramental grace, they can and should gradually and resolutely approach Christian perfection.
Yes, I have. I'm a Peruvian Catholic. Latin America is where Catholicism remains the most fervent. The Brazilian clergy isn't going to be making heretical statements on homosexuality. It's not true.
Brazil isn't Germany.
Many deserve eternal hell for it.
