Thank god.

That would be an ecumenical matter.

In reply to Removed UserDeleted bagger: I wonder whether all UKC threads should have their second post as a Father Ted reference. Would definitely enhance the level of discussion

I hear he's a racist now.

In reply to Herdwickmatt:

That's mad, Ted.

In reply to Rob Exile Ward:

The paedo is near, and the Catholic Church is far away.

Near.

Far away.

In reply to The Lemming:

Not actually a father Ted quote....you’ve spoilt the fun with something horrible.

In reply to Rob Exile Ward:

I read that headline as same-sex civil unicorns and was like wtf that in some way the Catholic Church has been anti-lgbt for so long that it’s first attempts to acknowledge equality was to start with mythical beasts first.

In reply to Rob Exile Ward:

If only the world could ignore the pontiff's stance on homosexuality the same way we do on killing and greed.

In reply to Rob Exile Ward:

One more religion down, at least one more to go...

In reply to Herdwickmatt:

I went to a Catholic school, with nuns and stuff.

In reply to The Lemming:

I'm quite liking the imagery I'm getting from 'with nuns and stuff'... 

In reply to The Lemming:

In reply to The Lemming:

I hope it was more fun than the alcohol free Methodist school I went to.

At least at yours you could pick up a few bad habits.

In reply to FactorXXX:

I don't. 'and stuff' in a Catholic education context could mean anything between fish on Sundays to being raped by old men.

In reply to alx:

Would make no less sense than all the other bullshit they make dungeons & dragons rules for.

In reply to Removed Userwaitout:

Don't mean to quibble but fish on Fridays ...

In reply to dgbryan:

Ha! Yes, of course. Evidence I don't hate the church because I'm reformed, I hate it because they never let me join.

So Bilbo hasn't to eat Mugwumps on mittenwok because Darth vader said so and Harry Potter enforces it. It's all so insane.

In reply to Rob Exile Ward:

What will the Catholic homophobes do now I wonder, say 'The pope is wrong'? 

Some self analysis of their feelings might help them...

In reply to Rob Exile Ward:

You going sedevacantist?

In reply to Rob Exile Ward:

Two Bishops in bed together....which one wore the nightie?

In reply to Rob Exile Ward:

....Mrs. Bishop

In reply to Rob Exile Ward:

Pope Francis is most definitely a Jesuit. Whether that makes him a Catholic or a heretic has been a matter of contention over the centuries.

In reply to Dr.S at work:

Careful now

In reply to Bacon Butty:

Lucky to have gone to a wet house comp’ and laughed as bully Phil ‘Bushie’ Bush had his stomach pumped at lunch time. 

In reply to The Lemming:

Are you Peter Kay?

In reply to Bacon Butty:

From 'Habit-hat'?
