New Pope condemns Harry Potter books

Boy this guy's off to a great start. Of all the things to condemn:

http://www.timesonline.co.uk/articl...1692541,00.html

Don't you have some business with like that world poverty and starvation type thingy to worry about? Or how 'bout how much money the Catholic Church in the U.S. has to shell out as a result of Catholic priest pedophiles ($2-3 billion):

Could someone tell me why they don't prosecute these sick fucks at the same time? Why do these pedophilers seemingly have immunity (most of them, at least), but non-priest pedophilers do not?

i like the harry potters book they are pretty good.

On to those priests they are pretty sick. The catholic church is paying many fines to the victims and the new pope wants to forget that ever happened. Not much you can do I wouldn't be surprised if he honestly believes that never happened

I don't have any warts, and I don't like them either. I don't understand your statement, though I know it was a pointless statement to begin with.

Nobody finds it disturbing that children would learn about witchcraft before learning about God?
Now before everyone gets their panties in a twist, my reference to "God" would include all denominations/religions...

Understood, but I didn't know that the Potter books were considered manuals for the Wiccan religion, did you?

Last I read (and I have read all of them), they were highly ficticious in nature and content. Most kids do, in fact, realize this.

Regardless, your statement does beg a more broader question - why would kids have to learn about a God of any sorts in the first place? And why then would they have to have a comparison between a belief in a God versus engulfing themselves in a terrific ficticious story?

I'm catholic, and I busted out laughing. You are really over something when you can joke about it.

I don't get you, but I'll humor you anyway. Yes, I have these huge, bulbous, gangreenous, puss filled genital warts. I like to pop them all over the bathroom mirror and watch the puss run...

In all seriousness, responding to your comment that he can't have feelings for kids since he doesn't have any--that's about as absurd a statement as you could've come up with. Usually people who don't like kids don't end up having kids. How can that be since by your logic they cannot possibly have such feelings to begin with? My comment was actually a paralleled analogy in that I said while I [b]don't[/i] have warts (the gential comment was provided by you, so I'll assume you have your own issues with them), I know I dont' like them. I don't have to have a wart to know that I don't like or desire them. Simple statement followed by a smart-ass remark.

huh? thats how smart i am. I really don't care you are a bit off yourself shakka.
Ah yes i got what you meant. See my issue with warts is that I keep on getting them on my fingers. I put medicine on them and they go away than they come back. I just got rid of one like yesterday. I ripped it off and it bleed a lot.

Yeah that was an absurd comment. I am sorry Shakka next time I will explain the way I feel and not write in 'code' that you would not get. But hey its not your fault like i said next time I will correctly write what I mean.

So how are you today??
