“Pope Benedict has shown no sympathy for wives whose husbands have AIDS. A less compassionate or understanding view of their situation than his is hard to fathom.”

He’s shown less for the victims of molestation by priests & for the dark history of his church & the crimes that they committed against humanity.

Within the halls of conservative Christianity, the Catholic church is considered not only non-Christian, but an apostasy; the Pope is often referred to as the Anti-Christ. Given the environment that I have just described, there is much truth and biblical support for that.
In reality, of course, it’s all make-believe; but very very dangerous make-believe, indeed! The Pope and the lemmings that are the catholic church members are collectively responsible for much of the misery on this planet and also hold much of the wealth.
Ultimately, it will be just as important that the catholic church loses its power as it is that the islamic tide be stemmed. Reason, logic and education must prevail for society to ever fulfill its destiny.

So the wife of an HIV+ man gets AIDS and dies. The catholic officials do not care. She must be open to the “transmission of life”, condoms are evil, they defy the will of god. I must wonder about the power of a god that can be defeated by a condom, the birth control pill, IUD, tubal ligation, etc.
Religious tradition has long considered women to be disposable.Consider Sati-the practice in India to burn the widow alive on her husband’s funeral pyre:
According to the Hindu belief system, the sati dies as a wife, eschewing the ill-fated, ominous, and impure state of widowhood: The “eye of faith,” combined with the “belief effect” of the ritual, makes the joint cremation of husband and wife appear to onlookers (and as far as one can tell, to the sati herself) to be a reenactment of their marriage ceremony. Through her sacrifice, the sati preserves the bodily and spiritual unity of the couple, affording the Hindu sacrament of marriage its ultimate and truest expression.
What a load of crap. Especially when one considers that the same religious traditions forced young girls into arranged marriages with much older men. Shudder in horror for the future of a 12-year old forced to marry an 80 year-old geezer with a heart condition.
At least India is modernizing and rejecting such nonsense, although it is not completely eradicated yet. The Catholic Church has no interest in jettisoning their stupid ideas.

“Shudder in horror for the future of a 12-year old forced to marry an 80 year-old geezer with a heart condition.”
The parents of the 12 year old act on the grounds of stupidity. Islam does’nt teach such stupidity.

Really? Really? Here is the passage that shows information concerning the divorcing of prepubescent children.
65:4 And for such of your women as despair of menstruation, if ye doubt, their period (of waiting) shall be three months, along with those who have it not. And for those with child, their period shall be till they bring forth their burden. And whosoever keepeth his duty to Allah, He maketh his course easy for him.
Not cool to deny Islam’s teachings, Sollie!

What was the name of that little 6 year old girl raped by muhammad?
June 16th, 2010 at 6:09
She was 9, John. Muhammad wasn’t an animal, after all. Oh wait…
June 16th, 2010 at 8:18
Bornagain A. Theist,
So what….? The ayat is only outlining the rules regarding divorce if it happens or can’t be saved. Its not asking individuals to divorce girls.

John,
Do you know the definition of rape?
Rape is having sexual intercourse with a person who does not want to, or cannot consent.
So there no rape incident whatsoever between Mohammad & his legitimate wife you scum.

9 year old girls do not give consent Solomon.

Is that not where the trolls hide?
June 16th, 2010 at 20:28
Solomon, when you say”Islam doesn’t teach such stupidity” don’t they STILL teach that the sun rotates around the sun?
June 16th, 2010 at 20:29
oops… doesn’t Islam teach us that the sun rotes around the earth
June 16th, 2010 at 23:49
Cite one verse in the Qoran that states the sun rotates round the earth.

I’ll attend to you much later Braathwaate. I’am attending a course right now.
June 17th, 2010 at 1:41
Braathwaate,
I can’t wait long. Read the words stating the sun rotates round the earth. There ain’t any. You’re just guessing.
June 17th, 2010 at 21:24
Quran gives us further scientific knowledge by telling us that the stars were created by Allah as missiles to throw at the devils:
June 18th, 2010 at 8:14
Braathwaate,
Ahh…I don’t have to comment on your tread. You’re only screwing the quranic words.
