JEWISH ANGER AT POPE'S VISIT-WILL WE EVER GET SHOT OF RELIGION?


"RELIGION IS AN ARGUMENT ABOUT WHO HAS THE BEST IMAGINARY FRIEND"




Jewish leaders have protested strongly in private over the timing of an address by Pope Benedict XVI to the Houses of Parliament.
They are angry that the event is due to end just before the start of prayer and fasting to mark Yom Kippur, the holiest day in the faith's calendar. Observant Jews are required to be at synagogue at sunset the night before Yom Kippur. Yet the papal address to 1,800 parliamentarians and faith leaders in Westminster Hall is due to end barely an hour before dusk on 17 September.  One source said: "They were not just angry – they went thermonuclear. There's an irony that the Pope is speaking about trust and reconciliation, but representatives of a major faith will be not there to hear him."No one is going to trust to luck with London Underground in the hope that they can get back home in time for sunset."

When will we ever be rid of religion?  I would challenge anyone to argue with the statement at the top of the page.  Muslim, Jew and Christian, fuck me they all more or less agree on the same thing.  To Muslims, Christ was a prophet, to Christians he was the 'Lord' and the Jews go their own way as usual and don't believe in him.  It's such a load of fucking pish, IMO.  Take away religion, you would have lost 95% of all wars in the last two hundred years.
When are people going to wake up and see what's going on around them, with Church leaders and their 'disciples' living in the lap of luxury, whilst their 'flock' live, by the by, in poverty in comparison to them.  The biggest house in a Scottish town, usually belonged to the church, whether Church of Scotland or Catholic and their parishioners lived in hovels and handed over money to the church they could barely afford each week to keep these fuckers in the lap of luxury.  I seem to be in a moaning mood this week.  I better shut the fuck up, before I get in more trouble!
