14th September 2009

“The Vatican is its own sovereign state and its 800 nightgown wearing residents guard an ungodly fortune worth more than 50 billion dollars. Which is why, despite their modest numbers, the Pope and his crew can afford to dedicate every moment of every blessed day to making life hell for billions of the rest of us.”

Penn Jillette

    …words of relieve for all humankind as the great burden to all that is the churches is on the wane…. it used to be more than 60 billion they had control of. Check out the parking lots lately; they’re not as full as 10 years ago.

    Catholicism may not be growing, but Islam is. What to do?

    I love Penn & Teller! In response to The Heretic: That’s a good question. I’m sure if it weren’t religion, it’d be some other paranormal craziness. We’ll probably never win this war on nonsense.
