The Pope Says We're Winning!!
Updated
6/4/04I announce with great pride that
now even that despicable, mystical, loony man that many people call the Pope has
acknowledged that American
culture is attaining perfection. He says that we are "turning against
spirituality in favor of materialistic desires, giving way to a 'soulless vision
of life.'" I couldn't be happier!
Oh wait. For some reason he calls
this a bad thing. This is only more proof that the "Holy See" is a home of
depravity and evil.
Here we are in the United States, the most
prosperous nation ever to exist in the history of the world. Our people are
happier, safer, richer, healthier, with more potential than those living in any
other place in the world now or ever in history. The citizens of our nation are
routinely among the smartest, the best athletes, the best of everything ever to
be found in this world. Not only that, but we export freedom to other parts of
the world and we give money, food, and medicine to needy countries. Our
medical, scientific, and engineering discoveries save countless lives everywhere
in the world.
How can anyone who wishes
good for mankind say that our nation is the center of anything
bad?
The truth is that organized,
dictatorial religions like those under the boot of the Roman See are being
displaced by something much better. Man is learning freedom is more powerful in
promoting long, happy lives than are death centered religions. The Roman church
and most of Christianity are obsessed with dying. To them, nothing we do here
matters except how it affects our status after we're dead. While Americans are
celebrating life every day, Saint Peter's successor is only thinking of us being
dead.
The Roman Catholic church still
has a very strong influence of its hey days during the Black Death when one
third of its parishoners were killed. It still teaches that women are sexual
animals to be shunned by pious men. The Pope leads a religion that only very
recently advocated killing the democratically elected government of Spain and
its supporters. The current Pope leads a religion that encourages poverty and
subservience to despotic Central American regimes. Nice
guy.
The man called the Pope is also
the looney toon that believes fervently in his own magical powers to drive out
demons from people who are "possessed." Most of us laugh at televangelists, but
they're no different than this guy in the pointy hat. In fact long before he
completely lost his mind from senility, he updated the rite of exorcism. You
know, there are a lot of ghosts and goblins out there that need to be chased
that are much more important than speaking out against tyrannical regimes.
Oooh, look out! There's a ghost behind you! Better find the
Pope!
This lump of deathly depravity
has repeatedly denounced the United States for bringing freedom to those living
under the horror in Iraq. He has joined hands with Muslims and "prayed" with
those who would kill Americans because he agrees with them that happiness,
prosperity and freedom from oppressive religious control are things to be
feared.
The Roman Catholic church
destroyed the prosperity of the Roman Empire and brought the dark ages to
Europe, a time of mindlessness and absolute social and political control of an
entire continent, not unlike what the Taliban wanted in Afghanistan. The dark
age ended only after the monopolistic control of Christianity in Europe was
broken by the Protestants.
Now there
are more Americans who profess a belief in god and worship regularly than in any
other nation on earth. It seems that freedom promotes that too. Oh, but wait.
These pious Americans don't worship the same way the tyrant in Rome dictates,
therefore we must be bad. Maybe if he and his lieutenants weren't playing with
the private parts of little boys, they might notice more of their own
irrelevence.
If this despicable man
thinks that Americans have too much individuality, too much freedom, too much
money, and too much happiness, then I say, it's a damn good thing he's over
there and we're not under his boot. Let's celebrate our good fortune.
Update 6/4/04: Today the Pope took
the occasion of President Bush's visit to him to insult him for the prison
abuses that took place in Iraq. I'm among those who are most offended by what
happened, but President Bush never condoned what happened there, and indeed has
promised that punishment will be meted out.
But the Pope, who thinks that
pedophiles, so long as they swear obedience to him, should be protected from the
reach of the law and rewarded with cushy jobs, insults a man who comes across
the world to pay his respects. I hope that the Pope is never again welcomed at
the White House. What nerve!
