Pope coming to England
July 6, 2010 at 7:29 am
The pope comes to England this year going to make Cardinal Newman a saint. He was a big cheese in my moms church. They dug him up last year to make his remains into relics.

You can't be a saint unless you have your bits turned into relics to be worshiped. BUT there was a hitch!Confusedhock:
when the exhumed the grave there was nothing there! Apparently the ground flooded regularly and it had all washed away!!? So no remains. Wonder what they will do....

Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence - Carl Sagan

Mankind's intelligence walks hand in hand with it's stupidity.

Being an atheist says nothing about your overall intelligence, it just means you don't believe in god. Atheists can be as bright as any scientist and as stupid as any creationist.

You never really know just how stupid someone is, until you've argued with them.

Don't worry - many people believe in Jesus, and we don't have any shred of evidence of him other than wildly conflicting accounts at completely different times.

He'll be inducted a-ok.

He should be arrested the moment he sets foot in Britain.

I'd like to see the biggest peaceful demonstrations in the history of our country as soon as his plane sets down. So much so that he has no choice but to cut his visit short and return home with his tail between his legs!

they could just take some cow bones or some such and call them his. one, it will be in a reliquary that most won't see , two it used to be that something was important like the shroud of Mary-- the copies were just as important as the original.

Instead of arresting him, he should just be made to feel really uncomfortable. First up would be a guided tour of a condom factory, followed by a visit to a Catholic African country rife with AIDS. Then, we should take him to a gay bar, where scantily clad young men would gratuitously flirt with him.

Yeah but you pay the cops anyway. The thing is while they are off guarding his sorry, child-molesting ass there will be real people who get robbed or killed because the cops are re-deployed.
