"It is now quite lawful for a Catholic woman to avoid pregnancy by a resort to mathematics, though she is still forbidden to resort to physics or chemistry."

Catholicism is dumb. Not real well thought-out, that religion. My personal fave is that it's Chrisitianity but most of their stuff doesn't have anything to do with the Bible. No marriage for priests? Huh? Praying to Mary? Confession? None of that is in the Bible.

i'm not quite sure what i think of catholicism. there's a lot, and i mean a lot of crap but at the same time it's one of the more workable and enlightened western religions. weird.

Dudes, Catholicism sucks balls. We're talking it's not even up for debate, rad hats or not.

 

[dorian gray]

Religion sucks in general but Catholicism is up there among the worst. Just talk to a Catholic. They're the most mixed-up miserable people I've ever known, all full of guilt and confusion, and the ones who seriously practice the faith don't use birth control. Great idea.

The Catholic Church is one of the most poisonous institutions known to man. It "works" because it's a total headfuck.

 

[dorian gray]

I'll give the Catholics credit - they give alot of money to relief and charity organizations. In fact, as an institution, I'm fairly certain they give more money than any other institution in the world, ever.

They also give a lot of penis to little boys.

In a way thats kinda of a priests birth control. Dont have to worry about getting anyone pregnant. Sick none the less though.

They also preach a total load of bullshit about a lifestyle of humility and abandoning needless possessions. Look at any older church and odds are you'll find grotesquely ornate works of gold, jools, and the like.

All the money they give, however much, is a fraction of what they COULD be giving. Honestly, I don't care about this because I don't believe anyone should feel obligated to give to charity, but their fucking belief system is ostensibly based on it!

 

[dorian gray]

Jeez, Demilich, that's harsh dude.

Anyway, the Catholic priest/sex with boys joke is so jaded. I hope to never hear it again. I mean, why isn't funny to talk about secular child molesters? At least be an equal opportunity user of poor humor.

 

[Demilich]

because secular child molestors don't usually (and the usually is key here) have a big old bearded dude with some serious dogma and millions of followers looking over his shoulder telling him he's being a naughty boy while he fondles a member of your congregation!
