There we go.

What a buttmunch.

I'm not a fan of this Pope, I have to say

[shaunbhoy]

apparantly the pope has said there were no animals in the manger?

Well of course he is a very perceptive man is the Pope.
Not much gets past him.

I'm not sure how true it is - need a google I think but apparantly the pope has said there were no animals in the manger?

WTF??!!

I will update the thread when I find out more.

Glad to see with all of the worlds problems he is focusing on the big stuff

Well, there wouldn't be animals in a manger - that's where they eat from....

Anyway, what the pope said was that "In the gospels there is no mention of animals" (linky), which is true.

However, his comments have absolutely nothing to do with the debate about gay marriage.

There wasn't a lobster either. And?

Also - how can a Catholic not like the Pope? Isn't that quite a large part of the Catholic faith?

What a great respresetative for the catholic church, a bimbling old man barely holding it together.

Catholics are happy?

yeah, right! Unless the pope has really lost his marbles.

Why should he be unhappy? No Catholic are being forced to conduct a gay marriage. They are not going to cause a fuss - unlike muslims.

+1. Shall we start a petition to have him thrown out?

Will you stand for pope next time. I will vote for you! Best of all, being Catholic, drinking is virtually compulsory. I often feel like an outsider at church being teetotal.

I meant the stable...

I know, my post wasn't about gay marriage either.

Though, if they want to get married, let them IMO.

Easy.

I liked the last fella, this one, not so much. The Pope to me is more of an office than a person, but perhaps my view is odd.

what a great word

Although are you allowed to call the pope that?

[BA to the Stars]

I thought that was one of the criteria for the job.

The other lot seem to have a different method, randomly picking their popes out of a hat.

It must be a big hat
