bellemontagne Posted June 7, 2002 Share Posted June 7, 2002 quote: The pope is not reacting to a botched speech- he is in very poor health. No duh!! But, the image does make the perfect setup for a joke. I keep thinking that scandel after scandel will rock the Catholic church and cause positive changes in the Church. Being a Christian with no particular denomination, I do have respect for Catholics and some respect for the Pope. However, like you Dave I have MAJOR disagreements with Catholic theology, doctrine, and politics. After everything that has happened recently, I am beginning to wonder if the church will ever change for the better. Personally, the only way change can be forced upon the Catholic church is through the parishoners' wallets. People need to stop giving to the church until certain changes happen and certain people step down (which is beginning to happen in some areas). People also need to sue the FUCK out of the church any time some scumbag priest does anything inappropriate. Do you know how the Southern Poverty Law Center helped to bring down the KKK? They sued the hell out of them, so tthe KKK went "bankrupt" so to speak. The same thing needs to happen to the Catholic church. When an organization thrives off of power (power=money) the only way you can bring that organization down is to take away its money. The only problem is is that the Catholic church is one of the most powerful organizations in the world. It's no wonder the church has been around for so long.

Dave_Schuldt Posted June 8, 2002 Share Posted June 8, 2002 The pope is not reacting to a botched speech- he is in very poor health. I wish the motherfucker would hurry up and die. He is a curse upon the world. Anybody who is opposed to birth control should be shot as a population control method. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
