Presumably they're meant to give any spare money they have to the church so they can buy more golden goblets to drink the finest wines out of.

Just like when he went to Africa and told people not to use contraception despite the AIDS epidemy.

I started to like this pope -- but then he came out with that crap about being justified to punch someone who insulted his momma, giving justification to terrorists who react violently to their so-called religion being offended. He's just as much of a jerk as all the other popes and poops before him.

I'm not sure why anyone is surprised, the guy was a douche before they gave him the silly hat. The hat isn't magic, he's just a douche in a silly hat now.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!

Oh, they're wrong. Every religious bullshit story is wrong. And somebody is making money off of it.

Yeah, I mean, being atheist isn't making any claims. So there's nothing for us to be "wrong" about. We are not even saying that all their made up stories aren't true (except the logically impossible ones) but that there is no reason to think that they are true.

Which is what most religious people do - claim that they have the ultimate answers and in no way can ever be wrong, because the book said so.

RE: 6 million and me
Yeah exactly. Alice nailed that one a while ago, that is not faith, it is zealotry. The absolute refusal to consider any evidence that might contradict your pre drawn conclusions.

In other words, being a dumbass.

Present company mostly excepted, of course.
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist.  This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair.  Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second.  That means there's a situation vacant.'
