(631 posts)"Head Of State". I said calling him a head of state was deceptive. 450 Brothers living on a 100 acre reservation in Rome doesn't constitute a "state", and if UN and everybody else wants to call it one, they all full of it, IMO. The Vatican, IMO, is more like a big monastery.
Now, it seems to me you are saying that if all religions were organized like the Catholic religion, they would all have power. But since they are not organized that way, they don't - and tough luck for them, eh? They aren't deserving to share in power with Catholics who are better organized? In other words, due to their superior organization, Catholics have a right to rule, and others have no say in the matter; and people like me, with our "gripes" should just be quiet about it, because there is nothing we can do about it, anyway?
