Reply to: Question for all the God-bothering Christian types on here

Oi Xog, I thought Catholics could get away with "confession". Drink a couple of gallons of Holy Water and absolution (Ablution - Shirley?) is yours...

Those crazy catholics... thought this was a thread about proper Christianity

I'm sure you won't be offended when I say "None of your business."

In my book beliefs are between a man and his God and so they should remain.

Totally, I respect your opinion, but since it's a discussion board and people are chipping in, I thought some might answer (which they have).

Always interested in peoples reasons.

I need to drink a couple of gallons & bath in the font as well.

[xoggoth]

Like that. At least Solomon got a good supply of Calimari for his freezer.

But like the Catholic Church, it's responsible for mass.

I did mention the "Higgs Boson" earlier. A lot of faith being relied upon there methinks... Oh, and a lot of money too. Not quite as much as is available to the Roman Catholic Church but hey ho!

There's no faith in the Higgs, it's just a theory.

PS Why is there not a book "Things god doesn't want you to know" that explains all the loopholes so you can sin as much as you like and still get into heaven?

This seemed appropriate

Spot on.

Sorry believers you can think what you like but the Mosquito is a dead giveaway.

I guess my convent education wasn't completly wasted then

Convent educated! I am even more surprised you are not an atheist.

Nuns - ech! Had a brief experience of them once when I stayed with an aunt while my mother was ill. Vicious harridans shouting at and slippering 6 year olds at the drop of a hat. Loathed them ever since. Ever read Childhood Interrupted by Kathleen O'Malley? I can certainly believe it.

Always found priests mostly likeable and decent chaps. Obviously I was an unattractive child.

Two of the faithful were crossing the road. One of them was hit by a bus and lay in a mangled heap

The other crouched down, held his friends hands and said, 'let us pray'


The mangled man said 'idiot. call an ambulance'

Duh, call the ambulance and then pray while it is on route.

Jonathan Swift: it is useless to attempt to reason a man out of a thing he was never reasoned into

At least I didn't say Jehovah.

Stone him!

[TimberWolf]

Heretic!
