Whether you're a fan of christianity or not, know that we've lost a great man today.

He looks kind of like a superhero in that picture. If you put a mask on him and put him on top of a gargoyle at night he'd look like batman in a white suit.

Haha, that is true, I think they were aiming for something along those lines. He fought the holy war and what not or whatever. I want the staff man, that thing is cool.

Yeah, that's definitely what I liked about the picture. It's very dramatic.

That and the surfboards behind him.

It's stuff like that that makes me want to go to church.

MAGICLIT · 04-15-2005, 02:35 PM

It's stuff like that that reminds me of how corrupt the Catholic Church is above any other religion....and I was baptized Catholic...fuck me

Beebs · 04-15-2005, 02:35 PM

quick teaser
"Formosus' decomposing body was dressed in papal vestments, propped in a throne and put on trial for crimes against church law, including perjury. Unable to mount a defense, Formosus' ghastly remains were convicted. As punishment, the three fingers Formosus once used to bless the faithful were hacked from his right hand. His body was dragged away and thrown into the Tiber River."

MAGICLIT · 04-15-2005, 02:38 PM

exactly...does that sound like what we are led to believe as "the Holy One" the one person on Earth who is closest to GOD....read Angels & Demons then the Da Vinci Code by Dan Brown...not all can be viewed as factual however very enlightening

Beebs · 04-15-2005, 02:40 PM

It's FICTION, if you wanna know the history of the catholic church, read the history of the catholic church, it isn't "enlightening" it's MADE UP.

Ironic Mustache · 04-15-2005, 02:45 PM

The Da Vinci Code is a load of shit. It was somewhat entertaining, but complete crap.

MAGICLIT · 04-15-2005, 02:46 PM

Atually you're wrong Beebs, I've studied the topic at hand, the history of the Catholic Church is started when Constantine sat around witha group of leaders from his empire and decided what was the best way to control the world: one Religion. They ACTUALLY VOTED on the divinity of Jesus, Jesus was a prophet but they voted him immortal.........look into it....

Ironic Mustache · 04-15-2005, 02:59 PM

You can read different accounts from different places, it doesn't make them fact. I'm sure the christian bible has something to say about that theory.

MAGICLIT · 04-15-2005, 03:02 PM

You cant believe everything in the bible....for hundreds of years Kings would have monks alter passages to suit their rule....ever heard of the Dead Sea Scrolls?

Ironic Mustache · 04-15-2005, 03:04 PM

You can't believe most of the shit in the bible, but the fact is, when you're discussing religion, no one can really use the word "fact" at all. It's all a bunch of opions of translations of accounts of other people's opinions about things that happened before they were born. It's heresay.

What the ever loving fuck does that have to do with the fact that the DaVinci code is fiction, and is in the fiction section at bookstores?

MAGICLIT · 04-15-2005, 03:08 PM

you have a really good point.....all I was saying is (sad to say) before I read those books I was Catholic follower...after reading them I did a little research and found that I dont want to believe in something that MAY HAVE been entirely made up. Now when someone asks what religion I belong to I just say I believe in a Creator and leave it at that.

Ironic Mustache · 04-15-2005, 03:45 PM

Agnostic is another good answer.

MAGICLIT · 04-15-2005, 03:52 PM

True......but i dont like it........

Ironic Mustache · 04-15-2005, 03:53 PM

Well sooooooo-fuckin-ry.

Saint DH · 04-15-2005, 04:03 PM

Dan brown is a cocksucking jerk off. Fuck him and everything he writes.

Me too, haven't been to a catholic church since I was like 3.

MAGICLIT · 04-15-2005, 04:43 PM

wow...another thing we have in common

1. Love Outkast
2. Baptized Catholic but dont practice

....its a quandry why we dont get along....haha

fancymeghan · 04-15-2005, 05:42 PM

i'm catholic.... have been for my whole life...
i don't know what to believe about all that shit.

it's really fucking amazing that some (fiction) book by some shitty author is totally changing the world's view of jesus. for example....all these people questioning the existence of jesus as a savior. umm, how is some fact that can NEVER be proven change your whole basis in understanding your faith?

the point being, we won't know what happened until we get to heaven or hell. we're just not smart enough to fully conceptualize what God is doing.

i would assume people would be a little more intelligent than to believe what they read in a horribly written mystery novel. but i guess not.
