" Only Islam takes these things serious enough to issue fatwa's and the like, and they've managed to instill a fear in leaders of non-Islamic states that this sort of thing is racist and must be stamped out. I say bollocks to them, if they can't take it then fuck off to another Islamic country where it doesn't happen." Sri Lanka's Minister of Religious Affairs and Moral Uplift Secretary has taken offence at South Park too, for showing Buddha snorting a line of Coke. The episode of South Park that was pulled depicted Mohammed dressed as a bear (because as we all know, images of the prophet are blasphemous, the bear suit was a disguise), and was shelved after the show's creators received death threats from a previously unknown radical group. It wasn't down to outcry from muslim leaders over the content. Where the Catholic church went wrong was when it toned down the Inquisition, fear of a grisly end followed by a grisly afterlife did wonders for quelling dissent. Of course, Catholic priests moved onto that far more subtle form of control - fucking children. And there lies the nub of it all - CONTROL. Religion thrives on control, through fear and intimidation, physical or spiritual. Personally, I think anyone gullible enough to believe in an invisible friend in the sky deserves all they get, I don't believe things I read that apparently happened yesterday, let alone the words in a dodgy translated book that apparently was written thousands of years ago. I live for today, this life, for peace and goodwill towards anyone who affects the life of me and my loved ones here and now. If other mugs want to live in fear of the Pit of Damnation, more fool them, and I'm quite happy to nail them to crosses or send them off to their 72 virgins, whatever, if it means peace and quiet for me and mine. I'm not worried about finding out that I've made a big mistake, travelling down a corridor of light to find myself standing in front of The Man, having to explain my many blasphemies. If God exists, then He will understand why I don't believe any of the bullshit the organised religions feed people, I'm true in my heart to those who matter, myself and my world. If you are reading this God, prove to ME, right now, absolutely, that you exist, and I will gladly change my tune. Till then, you are just another fairy story. | |||

"What has annoyed me is some bloody civil servant has been paid with our taxes to dick about in a brain storming session (apparently where this document originated), can see it now, some spotty wanker with an inflated ego thinking they are the dogs bollox. Have they been dismissed? nope...just moved to other duties...I hope its cleaning the toilets!! " In every workplace up and down the country you will find people taking a break from their work, or even just a lighter moment where they are relaxing from the hum drum of their jobs, and merriment becomes the normal routine - you know, having a laugh. Do you not joke about with your workmates during the course of your working day? Ok, so this little bit of horseplay should never have got out and it's creator is guilty of nothing more than foolishness, and he'll probably pay a hefty price for it. It's a bit harsh to label him a 'spotty wanker with an inflated ego thinking they are the dogs bollox' though, don't you think? | |||

"a brain storming session " Whaaaaaaaaat???? You can't say that! That is highly offensive to any epileptics who might be reading. You must use the term "idea storming". Or you'll go to Hell. Probably. | |||

As for the Pope coming to the UK, who pays for this...........muggings here probably.
What annoys me is that an organisation can only apologise for the abuse scandal but no one is getting done for it.
Is it any different from a paedophile ring?

" most of the stuff that was on it was offensive to catholics and mostly against their beliefs. " Ah yes, but doesn't Christianity hinge on the principle of "turn the other cheek". Perhaps God wrote the memo to test their faith. | |||

" Ah yes, but doesn't Christianity hinge on the principle of "turn the other cheek". " it was their practice of turning the other cheeks that got a lot of them into trouble in the first place!  | |||
