He was found guilty and sentenced to life in prison. He is accepting "polident on a rope" as a going-away gift. |

once you are found guilty doesn't the "allegedly" come out of the equation?

I should have read the caption.
But I'm sure he is innocent anyway; a priest would never do something like that.

I agree with you Mayor, who could ever believe it, just like people seem to have the uncanny ability let it slide that christian based officials & believes have been responsible for so many deaths for hundreds of years, in the name of god indeed. |

Monster, I don't know what you are talking about. But it is often said that God works in mysterious ways.
I have a strong feeling that this priest was framed by the protestants.

Brett, actually, I'm sure it as done by Jews (oops, Jewish people), who then framed the priest and left a vague trail back to the protestants that McCheese mentioned, just in case the investigation got too close. We're a crafty bunch! 
People are people (to quote depeche mode). We're all capable of the best and worst of humankind. |

Brett, I was joking. If there was serious Catholic bashing going on here you would see a few other more well known posters jumping in here.
Other then that nun getting stabbed to death this thread doesn't have any serious tone to it. |

It seems to me that the post was intended to show how hypocritical the Catholic Church is. “Look look they’re murderers!!!!” yea you know what, there are a couple Billion of them, a few may be bad people.
Odd that on a message board that will ban you for saying that you don’t like the color of your neighbors house (OMG raciest), you can/t say “Real Mother” you have to say Birth Mother, unless you’re Jewish you can’t say Jew. People aren’t Black, they’re brown, and people aren’t gay they’re differently sexual.
But it’s Ok to bash the Catholics!

It's not really bashing when one is just stating a well known fact, and no it's not okay to bash people in such a generalized way.
I can't recall ever really calling a Jewish person a Jew, as a matter of fact, until I moved to NYC & then here, I had never really knew, if I knew somebody who was Jewish, I just don't pay attention to things like that, people are just people.
I could probably count on one hand how many times I've used the term African American, if I can't get my point across as to whom I am talking about, I will use a description that concisely narrows it down, sometimes that is brother (usually when I'm talking to a black person), and sometimes black.
Ya' know, I've never heard a black person refer to me, or another Caucasian, as a European American, I've heard a lot of other things, but never that.
I don't dislike anyone for a religion they may believe in, practice, and need, but I do dislike religion.
Particularly if a religion is used by people to control other people, to tell them what to think, what to believe, who to disdain, whom to kill, blah-blah, woof-woof...
All most religion is, is a tool...
if someone gains solace through religion without harming others, good for them...
if someone lets themselves be controlled by absurd religious doctrines, commandments, or what the high muckety mucks say or have passed down as to what should be believed in, and what one should do, then...
Religion has always been used as a tool for control, even if some religion actually has some god that actually exists or existed, that actually bothered to communicate to someone what it wanted (or wants) the people who may believe in it, or be coerced, tricked, manipulated, raised into, or brainwashed into believing in it, to believe and to how to live, than that entity would be using religion to control people, or fear if belief didn't do the job, and fear has been used by religious factions oh so well.

Brett, I never figured you to be one of the overly sensitive people on this board. I suppose that I was wrong about you, and the Protestants.
It in fact was not the Protestants. It was the pope himself who killed that nun. The reason he did so was because he found out she knew collection money was going to aid the air conditioning costs of the highest grossing 1% of churches in the US instead of going to the poor.
Yes, jump all over me for making a joke that included the word pope in the sentence. People are just too much these days.
And, Dr. Winston O'Boogie, there was nothing funny about your comment. I take serious offense, and hope that you are banned for saying something so outrageous about Catholics.

Mayor, are you serious or did your comments just go right over my head (NOT a first)?
First
'Other then that nun getting stabbed to death this thread doesn't have any serious tone to it.' (Anyone stabbed to death strikes me as serious).
Then
'And, Dr. Winston O'Boogie, there was nothing funny about your comment. I take serious offense, and hope that you are banned for saying something so outrageous about Catholics.' (??? You are the one cracking wise here...)
Gracious !!!

I’m not being too sensitive at all, more annoyed. I think Arnomation saw this picture and thought “Hey here is a good way to show how ••• backwards the Church can be. Even the priests kill people” I don’t think joking is a problem at all. As a matter of fact I think some of the comments were funny.
Believe me the Protestants wouldn’t have the balls to pull a stunt like that.
It’s annoying that some things are ok to make fun of, while others raise the hairs on everyone’s necks. It’s fine to say “Selfish Hummer Drivers” because they obviously have some money. But god forbid you say “that element is making the property value go down” because someone is going to think they may be “That element.” People have cried foul when someone mentioned adopting a tree, really???
As for going to church, I could care less if someone does or doesn’t attend. I go maybe once a month because I think it’s important to be humbled once in a while, just to keep my feet on the ground.

His being a priest had nothing to do with it. I would have posted this photo if the guy was an electrician because it made me laugh.
The reason I posted the photo is because I was amused by it. I initially thought the guy on the left was the killer because he looked evil and then I saw that he was actually the Lawyer! Then I saw the guy in the middle who is probably a police officer and he reminded me of Tor from 'Plan 9 From Outer Space' and yet it was the third person in the photo that was the murderer.
That's all there was to it. What is wrong with people on MOL??? Why does every thread have to devolve into arguements, accusations and conjecture? It's really quite astonishing and a bit sad. I mentioned nothing about the church in my initial post, that was all your doing. So, leave me out of it.

Good point Arnomation. This thread is laughably ridiculous.
I saw the humor in the photo too........what a bunch of scary looking guys. Frankly, I saw your point right away. They all look like potential murderers!
Don't be too discouraged. Ignore them and move on. |

You know what I always thought was deplorable? That "Flying Nun" program on TV. Clearly, nuns can't fly, and to suggest otherwise is an obvious indication of anti-Catholic bigotry.
and don't even get me started on the "Father Dowling Mysteries." To think that Mr. Cunningham could ever become a priest, after he'd been married for all those years to the lovely Mrs. C... |

While I don't think anyone was intentionally bashing Catholics here in this thread, I can understand Brett's "sensitivity" on this. I don't think he's being overly sensitive, since there have been a number of marginally anti-Catholic threads here in the past.
And there does tend to be a general insensitivity about this. People make jokes about priests, but don't think about how they would feel if the jokes were about their religious leaders.
<thread drift>
As for the "Jew" thing, the only time I've ever take the word Jew to be a slur is when the person saying is literally, or by there tone, spits after they say it. I am Jewish. That's an adjective. I am a Jew. That's a noun. Using Jew as a verb is insulting. I am no more insulting by someone saying I am a Jew than I would expect someone to be insulted if I said they are a Protestant or a Freemason (assuming of course they are a Protestant or a Freemason).

It really bothers me that you would speak of someone as a murderer. I prefer the term lifespan completer. |
