 Posted: Tue Jul 22, 2008 9:44 pm Post subject: World Youth Day ... |
  |
|
I'm in Australia which just hosted World Youth Day in Sydney.
First of all it should be called Catholic Old Men in Dresses Week as it wasn't for all world youth just the catholics, it wasn't just for youth as there were many older men in dresses there (including the Emperor from Star Wars) and it lasted for over a week.
Secondly to my fury it was sponsored by Sydney Government - in a secular country spending $150,000,000 on a religious event shouldn't be forced on taxpayers.
Thirdly, the authorities introduced a temporary "anti- annoyance" law -$5500 for annoying pilgrims or disrupting the event. The law was challenged and was eventually canceled. |

Why is the pope wearing a sporty red yarmulke?

Well,you would say that,wouldn't you. ;o)

Well perhaps not, if he's been accurately described in the Torah. He sounds like a thoroughly nasty piece of work. I doubt he and I would l get along. |

I know I've said is a million times and its just beating a dead horse, but that fucking pope is the most hypocritical piece of shit in the universe for one very simple reason:
The Popemobile!
Piece of shit apparently has ZERO faith. The motherfucking chief of the world's largest faith based pedophile ring is a goddamn hypocrit too!
