I think he's a huge hypocrite. When he took Easter mass a few days ago, he said that we shouldn't care about things like "Materialism". This came from the man sitting on a giant golden throne, on a balcony overlooking thousands of screaming people and lives in a huge marble palace. Recently, he went to Africa, and told the people that if you wear a condom you have a bigger chance of catching and STD. Is he real?

But what do you think? Is he God's gift to the people, or do you think he's rubbish like I do?

Maybe he doesn't care about his gold throne.

I hate him for more important things, like the condoms in Africa thing.

He's the embodiment of the catholic church .

the moment he denounced the usage of condoms in Africa, and thus pretty much condemning millions of people to death (via AIDs, obviously) he went straight onto my black list. seriously, i was absolutely disgusted when he did that.

I think most people's distate in Christianity extends to the Pope as well.

I said Yay. Mostly because it's the Pope. Statement retracted - see edit.

Sure I disagree with just about everything the Pontiff as a catholic believes. But he's the fucking freakin' Pope!

I love the rule about writing that means the second use of "The Pope" has to be "The Pontiff" then it goes abck to "The Pope". So silly.

Going past the title to the man then I agree with:

The current pope sucks big time, but talk shit about John Paul II and I'll have to challenge you to duel (pistols, swords, you decide). I respected him as a diplomat, since I'm an atheist. Darth Benedict is horrible at diplomacy, though.
Edit: He said WHAT? about condoms in Africa?
Take back all my nice statements about him.

The current pope is an ignorant douchebag. His anti-condomn war, saying that condomns actually makes the AIDS problem WORSE. Well that's just lying, simple as that. I liked John Paul II though, he was a nice ol' geezer, great diplomat.

Yes the entire Vatican is very hipocritical. I mean go to any catholic monastery or convent and you'll see the monks and nuns living under vows of poverty. They live in very bare conditions, just the necessities of life. Then look at St. Peter's Bastila or the Sistine Chapel and how they are the very opposite of that in very way. You'd think the Pope would lead by example.

So very very very true.

Oh, and the whole thing where he tried to pretend the last pope had agreed with evolution, that burned me. Ok, that, your point, and the fact that in his previous big speech, rather than call for the world to combat aids, povetry, disease, etc, he called on the world to fight 'gayness' (homosexually).

Chief agmonst my dislikes of the pope are (see what I did there?):
* The hypocricy of being quite rich whilst decrying materialism.
* His 'holyness's' 'condoms won't help the Africans' bullshit.
* The attempts to retreat from the theory of evolution (not the hypothesis of evolution, which would be deniable)
* The popes preference towards bashing 'gays' over helping people.
* Everything else!

He represents something that i really resent. Christianity is the orst as they are constantly looking to recruit new members to follow this magical being who for some reason or another loves everyone. Ban it.

Wow..

If you're gonna say that at least make it funny.

Christianity: One woman's lie about an affair that got seriously out of hand.

Great display of ignorance and hatred there. You clearly should not be on the escapist.
