Too bad the catholic cult won't share some of their ill gotten gains with the poor starving peoples of the world. The christ i'm familiar with didn't display opulent expensive jewelry, live in a mansion with servants and wore bejeweled slippers. I'm waiting for the second coming so he can smack these thieves and charlatans upside the head.
I don't give a fuck, it ain't my money. Now, the shit the US government does pisses me off. It IS my money!
As an atheist, i should have kept my mouth shut but all the jewelry and trappings of power religious leaders wear just irritates the hell out of me. They need to ask themselves "what would Jesus do?" As far as the government goes, we need to clean house of all those useless dickheads or at least restrict the aholes to one term in office.

like you, all religion is just a big joke

You got a Derby horse yet? I'll probably make a weekend road trip to Oaklawn in a few weeks - cabin fever has me wanting to get out and about. Might make the Arkansas Derby - never been to that track. Verrazano.
He ran a great race last week.
Almost every country in the Middle East is awash in oil, and we have to side with the one that has nothing but joos. Goddamn, that was good thinkin'. Esso posted on 2012-01-13 7:37:56 ET
I liked both Verrazano and Flashback last weekend. I think Flashback got a bad ride from Leparoux - his gamble didn't pay off with the speed duel. At least he held on for place money. This weekend's Rebel Stakes is loaded. I'm studying the form and want to avoid the favorites - Super Ninety Nine and Oxbow. I've got a 48 hours to try to figure it out.
Yeah, the duel got my horse Goldencents too.

Verrazano. I could live in Hot Springs. I love the Majestic Hotel. Every bathroom is different. Funky with the Best Plumbing and Tile Work.....;}
Sounds too expensive for me. I'm on a budget and a weekend trip with a bed and shower is what I need. I've got to have some betting money, you know.
But it's really not. Breakfast buffet included. And it's a block from the Arlington, which owns it. You get to use the Arlington's pools/hot tub (nice;) for free.....;} And ask for the least expensive room. Trust me, it's like Pat O'Brians in New Orleans, you think it's expensive but it's really the best deal in town.... shuttles to the track....;}
I Googled it yesterday and it sounds like it's been closed for six years and falling apart. Check it out.
Too bad....but like everything else..... there's a reason..... Water Damage.....wouldn't you know it....Hot Springs. O well....never mind.....the tile work in All of those bathrooms....;}! Travel Lodge it is!
And I don't care what anybody says, that's valuable property.
Sounds like a plan...I haven't decided on which weekend to make my road trip. They've got 5 west coast jocks in town for the Rebel Stakes this afternoon. I'm keeping my money in my wallet this weekend. Delhomme with Garrett Gomez would be my pick.
I look forward to having a place in Hot Springs. Have a great time. Get a corned beef sandwich or try the seafood gumbo!

Only in your dope filled mind. Catholics, Pentecostals and Muslims are growing by leaps and bounds in the third world.
Exactly right. No one forces me to donate to the Catholic Church. Federal agents DO force me to cough up money for their rotten adventures. Voluntary versus FORCE -- that's the bottom line. Unfortunately, it's a bottom line that Feret Mike and other leftist kooks are too STUPID to understand. I really wish the anti-authoritarian anarchists would have won the debate with the authoritarian Marxists in the battle for the heart and soul of the left the 19th century. Unfortunately, the left was filled with idiots even back then.
Only in your dope filled mind. Catholics, Pentecostals and Muslims are growing by leaps and bounds in the third world. Source needed. And where's that Money coming from? Third World as well? Pat Robertson says $20 a month from Bankrupt families is plenty enough.....LMFAO So why DID the pope quit again?
Good historical point..
Really? I thought churches were supposed to help the needy.
Churches help the needy to help themselves by recognizing that, first, nothing is free. I remember that story from some god forsaken country (but isn't Every country on the Planet of the Demons from Dumbass god forsaken;) in Africa. The Church was there of course, and decided that charging 25 cents for a bundle of firewood sticks was equitable....;}
Almost sounds like the Red Cross ;^) and their dime coffees.
