Pope says Gay marriage is 'evil'

Over the millennia (big word huh) untold thousands, if not millions have been slaughtered in the name of god, which curiously never comes directly from his mouth, but from the mouth of just another mortal.

Let's get back to basics and start worshiping trees, nature, the sky, the sun and such. Truely, if there is/was a god, then these are the tings we should hold dear to us, not child-molesting wankers who have made a career decision to be a 'holy man' (or woman or whatever)

It's no wonder he makes such stupid statements though, me must realise that he, and those that will surely follow him has increasingly little relevance to us.

I say let him show his worth and value. Let the Pope start healing the planet, cleansing the toxic pollutants in our seas reivers and oceans, sort out the ozone problem and our reliance on fossil fuels. Then he can move onto 3rd world debt, disease, famine and so on.

Once he's done that he will have earned the right to share his opinion and have it listened to, until then, while he continues to live in a Palace in his own little tax-free kingdom being carried around by shirt-lifting monkeys in a f****g chair, he should shut the f*** up and mind his own damned business.

(phew, it's good to have a rant once in a while!)

RE- "Let's get back to basics and start worshiping trees, nature, the sky, the sun and such" It is religion that causes the killing etc, not who you worship. If we worshipped nature the "tree worshippers" would start to kill the "sky worshippers" and the "sun worshippers" would split into two groups with slightly different views on how to worship the sun, and start fighting each other.

Oh yeah, and the news would be full of reports on the bad health of the head of the "nature worshippers" with live coverage from the bottom of the tree he is in.

I'm afraid I have to disagree, ecchi... and being a pagan myself, I believe I have informed grounds on which to do so. The nice thing about being a pagan is that we only have one hard and fast rule pertaining to not doing harm to others. Beyond that, we are free to choose what/whom, when, where, and how we practice, down to writing our own customized grimoires (personal "bibles").

But the best part about practicing the Craft is tolerance... you'll never hear a true witch running down another person's religious preferences. Unlike other "religions" that don't follow the same tolerance guidelines, I just don't see wars cropping up between nature worshipping factions.

Of course that's just my 2 cents. Your mileage may vary

I'd only advocate becoming a 'Winchester .357 Underlever Mod 94AS' worshiper and those sun worshipers can bring it on!

lol
