Seriously. This is the dumbest thing I have heard in a while. The church seems to be dodging the real problems and making up stupid sh*t just so they can stop getting yelled at for touching altar boys. I'm pissed.

So... the REAL problem facing the Catholic Church as of this moment is the GENERAL NOTION that a few of its priests have a sideline in fiddling with the kidz? S'kay. And what exactly are you angry about? These stupid rules, or your ridiculously prejudiced and incorrect ideas on the Church itself?

:rolleyes:

BTW, Catholics are a load of crap.

I'm a Catholic, you bigoted asshole. Stop using pedophile priests (who make up an absolutely minute % of the actual amount of clergymen) as an excuse for being a narrow minded, bigoted asshole.

Amusing how you criticize me for speaking out against a religion that was founded by a pedophile, endorses pedophilia, and commits acts of terrorism, yet hate Catholics as people.

That isn't amusing in the slightest.

A monkey sticking its thumb up its own arsehole is, however.

I don't hate Catholics as individuals, but on the whole I think the whole thing is ridiculous. Essentially they're normal Christians who think ridiculous things like all gays should be slaughtered as painfully as possible on sight, making up things from the Bible which have absolutely no relevance to said point.

What a pile of c*ap that all is. Next, they'll have done this:

:

Though Commandments of Internetting according to God's Law

I. Though shalt not kill.

II. Though shalt not hack into thy neighbours computer.

III. Though shalt not mock Macs for what they are.

IV. Do not use the internet for immoral purposes.

V. Though shalt not steal through illegal downloading.

VI. Though shalt treat less grammatically and less intelligent internet users with the same respect as any other user.

VII. Though shalt not steal from paypal accounts or likewise.

VIII. Though shalt not make hurtful comments online in any communicative form.

IX. Though shalt not send spam mail.

X. Though shalt praise thy Lord in thanks for thy internet connection.
After this whole 'How to drive religiously' BS, I would not be at all surprised if this really was released.

Technically, in their defence, again (this is getting worrying), I don't think the Pope's ever decreed the outright massacre of gays, it's merely implied. :)

While I don't agree with the RCC's position on gays, to play angel's advocate here; (http://www.vatican.va/archive/catechism/p3s2c2a6.htm)
Orthodox Catholicism commands gays to be celibate and (in my opinion, even from an orthodox position this one is unfair) never become priests. And that they shouldn't be discriminated against unjustly.

They shouldn't be "discriminated against unjustly", yet they think it's just to discriminate against them by preventing them from showing each other in a relationship the ultimate sign of love, and stop them becoming priests? Yeah. Very just. I hope one day a priest pretends to be straight, becomes the Pope, then announces to everyone he is in fact gay, but still follows God's law.

If only for the look on those obsessive Catholics faces who actually think that twoddle.
