Look - the Pope isn't evil!

[Philippus Flavius Homovallumus]

Well I guess that's a fair point then. Although less revolutionary than what people are making out.

I think it's pretty blisteringly obvious, this man has been a theologian for around 60 years. To suggest he would do something "revolutionary" by accident is to massively underestimate him.

So the Pope isn't evil, because he says use a condom if you have an STD?

No, he isn't evil, and everyone who used the condom-thing as a reason to call him evil can now hopefully see they were barking up the wrong tree there. To see why it was such a delicate issue for him to address chec this out from the Gruniard: http://www.guardian.co.uk/world/2010...nd-fear-of-god

Religon is the ultimate roadblock to enlightenment the two are diametrically opposed.

Wow, Strike, that Faith of your really died and left some bitterness behind.
