12 million quid for a vicar to pop round for teas?

Dear Pope,

You have just been #edscobled.

i guess with finance demands like that we now know why they are one of the worlds wealthiest.

What they could do is invest (through a silent un-associated syndicate) a lot of money into security companies then wind up a few of the weaker catholics and make them believe killing some non-god botherers would guarantee a place next to the big man up there. then when the country bugs out and gets paranoid the church can reap the benefits from their investments in securities..

just a thought..

God died on a cross and all we got was this lousy Holy Ghost. Wouldn't you be pissed an needing an invention liking original sin and someone to pay for your child porn if your God was dead?

Love trolling at this time in the morning.

The Pope is travelling to the UK at the invitation of the Queen, and she will meet him at Holyroodhouse in Edinburgh on 16 September, the first day of his trip.

She can bloody well foot the bill out of her "own pocket".

^^ ha and don't get me started on royalty

If I'm inviting the forum around my house for a barbie could we get the British Tax Payers to foot the bill for that, after all we're representing a large group of people.

My daughters school (non-denominational) has donated half of what it rasied this year to the church. They are now not going to add an all weather track round the schools sports field unless they can raise more funds.

Several letters have been sent to the Bof Ed , the school and our local MHK (MP).

Outraged.

Dicki, I feel your pain.

Can't be fuel costs.

Do A Skid.

You'd need a labotomy first.

No taxes, no talk.

She can bloody well foot the bill out of her "own pocket".

And she's a proddy.

It's nothing but opium for the masses.

No taxes, no talk.

Ha.

No Tax, I wish.

No taxes, no talk.

Ha.

No Tax, I wish.

Nowhere near enough anyway, 20% is your highest rate?

You cunts steel it all anyway.

Stephen fry is gay?

I actually never knew. Great speech too.

Elton John is too you know. So was Freddy Mercury I believe :)

Great speech by Stephen Fry. Always nice to hear religion and Catholicism in particular torn apart.

Absolute joke, why should non religious folks have to cough up the money for this? If people want him to visit they can pay out of their own fucking money.

Could just sell his colnago to a hipster to pay for the trip... probably have enough left to buy a Create or something.

Maybe, as an inspiration to an increasingly secular Western world and in the spirit of the pilgrimages of yore, he should fucking walk here?

maybe he could walk off a cliff.

something that intrigues me. if you're a real good catholic, why not just kill yourself? repent just before so you have no sins except for the suicide, spend a few years in purgatory, and bob's ya uncle, eternity in heaven?!

I think the purgatory bit would be a major stumbling block in your plan. Doesn't suicide send you directly to hell anyhow?

In that case, his change of religion, and his siding with a religious fundamental idiot ruler, means that his actions towards a war against innocent people, had little to do with religion at all eh?

Fair enough. If thats what you think, then good luck to you.

What do you mean by "fundamentalist"? Which aspects of Blair's faith were "fundamental"?

Anybody who makes a decision to go to war on the basis of religion could surely be considered a fundamentalist. No?
Is he not talking about George Bush anyway

Bargain.
