Sorry if my opinion ain't lollipops and candy.

I'm being blunt. I don't find the beliefs of catholicism valid and that's as simple as that. Ironically, I was born catholic and I had this shit shoved down my throat for a good number of years forcibly by my mother.

so in regards to my opinion,

If you can't take the heat, then I suggest you get out of the kitchen.

Why?! Its his opinion, and what makes your opinion more valid than his? I agree he should express his opinion in a different way, but there's nothing wrong with his last post. Religion is a topic that can be argued endlessly, after all its a belief, but thats not to say that people who practice religion are any more right than ppl who don't.

Im done

Says who, you?

Sorry, but I don't see the state of the world being improved by religion or its leaders, in fact, I see it destroying people more and more by tearing ourselves apart.

This is a MESSAGE BOARD where I am FREE to make my own OPINIONS.

If you're upset by what I post, then you can do 1 of 3 things:

1. Ignore my posts
2. Try to understand where I'm coming from
3. Attack my points and prove me wrong with a valid reason

I don’t usually get into religious arguments or conversations but because of Cold One’s blatant opinions about Catholicism and the Pope, I’ll have to throw in my two cents. Especially since people as closed minded as himself are ones that would turn their back on people and quickly support the negative side of things. Why? Who knows but it’s usually the case. Now I’m not saying that Atheist’s always have negative feelings towards religion or act rudely towards people. Just that their blind eye of what religion often stands for can create misconceptions for other people.

Though I’m Catholic myself but not practicing I respect what the religion stands for and what it tries to teach people. I’m no preacher about God or Christ or Love…but simply a moralist that believes in things like care & respect & love & peace & happiness &…

All the things in the bible may or may not be true but listening to the stories can teach you a lot. Maybe it’s not true that Jesus fed the poor, clothed the homeless or saved lost souls, but the idea of humans giving a part of themselves to another to help them survive is what I interpret as the point of the story. Unconditional Love… Treating people with respect… Living a truthful and honest life… Helping others when they are down… Simple lessons that we can all follow to help people evolve and live peacefully. If that’s what a religion stands for then I respect it.

Sure there’s fanatics that take things a little too seriously but at least they’re not running around killing people. Yes I know that some religions have religious wars and kill in the name of God but often those people have a distorted view of what religion is and use it as a cover for political issues.

To some people the Pope is “over rated” like some of the pop stars or dj’s we listen to… but to most people he’s a symbol in Catholicism that tries to teach people how to live a better life. So give a little respect instead of bashing him like he is a musician/dj that’s just out there to put a show on for an audience.

Now with all this said, I’m not trying to prove anyone wrong. Just try to show a little respect for what other people believe in. Especially if it’s something that tries to improve how humans can live on this planet in harmony.

Agreed 100% Mikman. A debate on religion can go on for years and if people are totally closed-minded on the topic, its near impossible to share your faith with them. However an interesting fact I heard recently is that 80% of the people in the world do believe there is a God out there.

Back on topic, I wanted to go to Mass on Sunday, even though I'm Protestant. Don't know if I can make it though. It really is a once in a lifetime opportunity to see the Pope. It'd be awesome just being among the hundreds of thousands of people there, all in peaceful celebration. It just makes me proud of our world Oh well, make sure to post "reviews" if I don't make it
