Frankly I dig a religion whose leader sports red Prada loafers, and still adheres to pagan druid magic. Hey you couldn't pay me to be a "Free Methodist." No flair or phun in that religion. Okay some things about Papistry really suck, like pedastry, Mel Gibson, the Spanish Inquisition, 2nd class status of women, etc. But bleeding statues coming to life, incense, stigmata, Madonna & GaGa in one lifetime, and the normalcy of owning a cat o' nine tails-- I ask you, what's not to like?
What is on the T-shirt worn by the schoolkids? Is it the mummified hand?
ReplyDeleteI've sold a couple of reliquaries on eBay along with dozens of medals and rosaries. Obviously, I am not nor have ever been Catholic.
ReplyDeleteDid you see the old PI vid Maher played this week of O'Donnell? She was saying that evolution couldn't be true because monkeys would still be evolving...
Thanks for asking Vonda. According to the Tampa Tribune the students were wearing "green, blue and yellow [t-shirts], all emblazoned with the same imprint of Basco's face, which commemorated what is being called the saint's worldwide relic pilgrimage." Click below to see a picture of Don Bosco. I would go out with him, if was alive, and not a priest.

Claire: Have you been exhuming body parts and selling them on e-bay?
ReplyDeleteI just give the people what they want...
