The Catholics have come under a bit of stick lately (here and here). So now it’s time to poke a bit of fun at them.

There’s an amusing little test you can take to see what sort of Pope you would be. I seem to come out just all weird:

Seek help now!
You are a giddy combo of the weirder Popes, Stephen VI, Benedict XVI and St Peter

When I saw this headline, “Pope Forgives Molested Children”, I thought, “Yes – of course that’s how he would respond.” But truth is no less stranger than fiction. This one is from The Onion:

“Though grave and terrible sins have been committed, our Lord
teaches us to turn the other cheek and forgive those who sin against
us,” said the pope, reading a prepared statement from a balcony
overlooking St. Peter’s Square. “That is why, despite the terrible
wrongs they have committed, the church must move on and forgive these
children for their misdeeds.”

“As Jesus said, ‘Let he who is without sin cast the first stone,’”
the pope continued. “We must send a clear message to these
hundreds—perhaps thousands—of children whose sinful ways have tempted
so many of the church’s servants into lustful violation of their holy
vows of celibacy. The church forgives them for their transgressions and
looks upon them not with intolerance, but compassion.”

Yes, very difficult to separate truth from fiction.

If there is any humour to be found in the vile excretion from that repulsive sack of vomit Bill Donohue and his defense of child abuse, it is in him being totally pwned by Colm O’Gorman,  Executive Director of Amnesty International Ireland and a child rape victim himself.
