Bad Quote by Declan McKenna
“Yeah, I mean, having been raised like a Catholic, I have a sort of sympathy for religion, in that I think that religion's religion. It can be bad or good. People can take it however they want. My parents, for example, aren't as negative or oppressive as certain strands of Christianity and other religions are.”
