gollark: I don't *agree* with religious evangelism, I'm saying that it does not seem inconsistent with "true Catholicism" as qh4os says.
gollark: How? Consistently, if you believe that people not believing your thing will go to hell, and hell is bad, you should probably tell them. I'm not sure exactly what Catholic doctrine wrt. that *is* though, I think it varies.
gollark: And our experiments with understanding the underlying ethical particles have been halted after it transpired that colliding ethical entities at 99.99% of *c* actually had ethical associations itself, which caused bad interference.
gollark: Experimental moral philosophy has ethical issues, unfortunately.
