Let the church wither.....

Let the church wither.....
A great article....

http://apnews.excite.com/article/2013031...7K301.html

Quote:Across large swaths of Europe, empty pews and empty pulpits are the stark reality of centuries-old churches in a continent where, not so long ago, the village spire was the main point of reference for society. In Italy, the Vatican's own backyard, being Catholic often seems more a cultural trait than a way of worship. Traditionally Catholic France and Ireland are also turning away from the church. Even in deeply devout Poland, the nation of the widely beloved Pope John Paul II, faith is starting to waver.


Of course, there are still some catholics who still hang on to the old delusions.

Quote:"For the first time in decades we have someone with a new outlook on the world," he said. "We haven't had that in a long time."

A- They said the same shit when Herr Von Popenfuhrer took over from the Pollack and,

B- This clown is the same old shit as all the rest of them.

Granted it doesn't take a lot to fool catholics but they do seem to be a dying breed.
