Has anyone really been far even as decided to use even go want to do look more like?

Destroy Christianity... if the Pope has the power to do that...

At the very least, I'd help cure some of the disease Smile
Please give me a home where cloud buffalo roam
Where the dear and the strangers can play
Where sometimes is heard a discouraging word
But the skies are not stormy all day

Yeah, I'd go pro-choice too. And pro-gay marriage. And then I'd announce that "Jesus was a really fun loving guy! I prefer to think of the Bible as a bunch incredibly vague guidelines, in a quite casual and fun-loving way. Now where's that vodka? *hic*".

Hahahaha! Good one!

If I were a pope for a day, I'd take that big-ass diamond on my staff and sell it on eBay. Then I'd take the money and give it away to charities personally. Why would I need such a big diamond while preaching that we should share gods gifts when I have a damn big one on my stick but don't share it right? Big Grin

Tell the world that the infallibility of the bible rests on grounds of internal consistency and that any text which fails must be false

I'd put an end to the Catholic church then put all the pedophile priests to death.
