I'm not surprised in the least. This is the guy who said he thought it was fair to put Galileo on trial. I saw through the Catholic Church some sixty years ago and I have never looked back.

I wonder why Jews can't simply laugh at the moron instead of getting angry.

kmguru, this pope is MUCH more conservitive than John paul. Its a pitty because there was a real chance that the church could have actually saved lives if they had voted for a pope who was more liberal and had alowed contriceptives. I know most catholic ignore the popes edicts they dont agree with in first world countries (i was brought up in a catholic family and trust me no one bitches about the pope like a catholic) but in 3rd world countries they take the edicts more seriously.

Then there is the fact that he wants to go back to prevatican 2 which should send shivers down EVERYONES spines (not just the catholics) because of the harm he could do if he does.

Im not sure anyone would really be secretly unhappy if this pope died young

 

The Catholic Church is very conservative and slow to act, but they seem to be trying. The new prayer doesn't seem offensive at all, and it's much improved from the old one. They only wish Jews would accept Christ, I see nothing wrong with wishing that. Of course a Rabbi would be offended by any suggestion that Jesus was anything more than just some guy you know? That's their religion.

With what? The Vatican guards? Pure hype.

 

Spidergoat, if the Pope called forth a Crusade, who do you think? There would be millions of men gathered up for that; hell, if I were a Christian, I'd go forth as part of my duty.

 

what do you expect from a former Hitler youth member?

 

I can understand that, Jesus is much cooler than Moses or the god of the old testament,
so they feel pity for the poor jews that haven't experienced the awesomness of Christ.

 

another religious supremacists. lovely.

 

I think the problem is that people have religion.
Now, keep in mind, there are three possible things, one of which is most beneficial:

1)religion
2)faith
3) neither


I myself have Faith, therefore I do believe in God sometimes, at other times I am agnostic, but I follow no specific teaching, rather I follow every teaching or no teaching, I simply have faith.

At the stage of religion, however, is when you see violence.



Therefore, Jews, Muslims, and Christians are not seperated by faith: they believe in the same God, and alot of the same events and Prophets (Abraham, Moses, and for Christians and Muslims, Christ, and for Muslims, Muhummad). They are seperated by religion.

 

I shall pray for you, lost soul of Israel. In nomine Patris, et Filii, et Spiritus Sancti.

 

Avatar I thought you were an atheist.

 

Than you're crazy.

 

Everyone was in Hitler Jugend, just as every child in USSR was a pioneer, however that doesn't mean that everyone was a communist.
