Pope Benedict commands it be so.

I welcome the demise of "organized" religion. And the dawn of "personal morals".
Something the church has never known.
If Jesus were to witness these things in the flesh, he surely say to the church "this should not be so".
Then send them all to bloody hell. Pope and all.
The Catholic church is not the only place to cast blame and shame.

Then there is this...
VATICAN CITY - Pope Benedict, accused by victims' lawyers of being ultimately responsible for a cover-up of sexual abuse of children by priests, cannot be called to testify at any trial because he has immunity as a head of state, a top Vatican legal official said on Thursday.

ps.
Organized religion has been used to kill many people, kill Jews, kill homosexuals, enslave people and cause much misery upon women and children.
It’s time the truth was exposed. And THAT could be a true sign of the apocalypse.

Why so serious Gumby?
 
Buddhists think islands can tip over. Seriously!

😛


All Buddhists? I thought there were many different types of Buddhist?

Anyway, islands _can_ tip over - sort of. The top part of one of the Canaries is threatening to fall into the sea, as is a large part of one of the Hawaiian islands.

Either could wipe out great parts of the US via a tsunami.

I'm surprised Al Qieda hasn't sent lots of Islamicists there with orders to jump furiously up and down till they dislodge it.
 
Funny and so damn true. I was raised Catholic, confirmation and all. I remember when the child molestation allegations first surfaced. It was enough for me to completely want to distance myself from the church and religion in general.

I don't understand how people can still continue to follow the Catholic faith...especially after the new released information that pins the pope as one of the top guys involved in the cover up.
 
I hate the way they are again beating the church over the head for things that happened 40 years ago as if it was fresh news.
Well considering that church beats you over your head for things that happened ~2000 years ago as if it was fresh news, then 40 years is nothing.

lol

Plus, this shit has been going on for centuries and is only now coming out because victims are now willing to speak out and the media is willing to publish it.

The truth has been exposed. The atrocities committed by the Church, the body count racked up Christianity, the murders, the pedophilia, the extortion, it's all there in black and white and it can't be disputed. But it doesn't matter. The wannabelievers around the world react the same way the wannabelievers on ATOT react. The scream "TROLL!!", stick their fingers in their ears and make noises so they can't hear the truth. That's how religion survives in the face of facts, it relies on the end user wanting to keep believing no matter what. The only way to get rid of it will be to murder everyone that believes. That's how Christianity took over from the earlier religions.

Soo wrong, and yet hilariously hilarious

So would that be your response if your mother told you she was molested 40 years ago? It's old news, who cares right?
