Parents need to stop subjecting kids to these drag shows where men dress up like women, play loud music, ask for money, and indoctrinate kids before they are even old enough to understand.

1. Good one.

As a recovering Catholic, hell yes.

2. Episcopalian here.

Long, long time ago.

3. Recommended.

I was born into a Catholic family. As a pre-teen, I was forced to go to church ans catechism. One evening, the sister teaching catechism was telling kids there were no such things as UFOs, or they would be mentioned in the bible. I asked her how the prophet Elijah left the earth? "In a flaming chariot," she answered smuggly. Everyone was quiet for a brief moment, then burst out laughing. Well, everyone but the sister -- who was busy calling my father. I took quite a beating on the church's lawn, which was a rather curious lesson on the true meaning of christianity.


Note: I'd never seen Beldar dressed in red before.

4. Sorry about the beating, definitely not a christian act.

Even then you were fearless speaking your mind.

PS...had to look up who Beldar was.

7. Totally a Christian act

Therein lies the problem.

5. Those Catholics

They sure know how to put on a spectacle.

[Justice matters.]

6. They wear all that bling-bling...

Asking to kiss it down on thy knees.

8. Every time they beg for money, I find myself wondering how much one of those gold scepters

adornments and ornate robes would fetch. And/or all the real estate.

Might be a good load to send to the missions.

Jesus was NOT a rich man, and didn't hang around with them. The example I learned, that He attempted to teach, consistently leaned in a different direction. Being one of the religious meant one had taken vows of poverty, chastity, and obedience.

9. That kid looks perfectly miserable

When I was a kid my mother always made us go to church. My dad would always fall asleep and snore. Loudly.

The second church was over, my brother made a beeline out of the place, saying “beep, beep,” and maneuvering himself through the people to get to the exit.

I have musical talent and took over as the church organist at the ripe old age of 13. I soon realized I could move things along at a pretty fast clip by cutting off the minister’s sermon by playing an “amen.” Saved a good 10-15 minutes that way.

Church adventures.

10. If I had kids...

Hmm... How to spend a Sunday? Church or a drag show? Well, that depends.

If you want to enlighten your kid? Take them to a drag show.
If you want to get your kid fucked? Take them to church.

11. Catholic Church paedophile networks to be mapped 'like organised crime' by academics

A "mafia-like" code of silence among "dark networks" within the Catholic Church has begun to emerge from a world-first project mapping clerical paedophile networks, says an academic behind the project.
