Vatican calls Irish referendum a ‘defeat for humanity’ [View all] Warren Stupidity May 2015 OP

Oh Bullshit! It was a fantastic! hrmjustin May 2015 #1

And a good many Irish priests supported it. okasha May 2015 #4

Well said! hrmjustin May 2015 #6

That is not how the RCC is architected. AtheistCrusader May 2015 #9

Sorry. It is. okasha May 2015 #11

That is such crap. Are you serious? AtheistCrusader May 2015 #12

You might want to get the perspective okasha May 2015 #14

Yeah right. I've never done that. AtheistCrusader May 2015 #15

And you talked to all those people! okasha May 2015 #19

You really are too much. AtheistCrusader May 2015 #21

You've been given the equivalent to the Creationist argument "were you there?" cleanhippie May 2015 #37

Good analogy, Except, in a way, we both were there. AtheistCrusader May 2015 #38

62% of their confreres in Ireland voted for the referendm. rug May 2015 #20

I'm quite happy to see the progress in Ireland. AtheistCrusader May 2015 #22

What it is is an overwhelming majority of Catholics voting for equal rights. rug May 2015 #32

The church can't distinguish between the role of the church and the role of the state. AtheistCrusader May 2015 #33

The Church incldes its members who madev this vote. rug May 2015 #35

So explain then, how this audience came to the correct conclusion, yet AtheistCrusader May 2015 #43

They realize that the bishops have no more authority on legislation than anyone else. rug May 2015 #44

I wonder how they came to a different conclusion than the pope on AtheistCrusader May 2015 #46

Catholicism supports many progressive rights. rug May 2015 #47

Probably from the pope. AtheistCrusader May 2015 #51

That was a rhetorical question. rug May 2015 #55

Not so 'overwhelming'; 45% of 'yes voters' were religious, 75% of 'no' voters muriel_volestrangler May 2015 #39

I'm sorry you're disappointed in the election results. rug May 2015 #40

As opposed to your assertion that 'overwhelming' numbers of Catholics voted yes? muriel_volestrangler May 2015 #42

Convert your percentages into numbers then. rug May 2015 #45

That's a different argument muriel_volestrangler May 2015 #48

It's a much more pertinent statistic than "45% of 'yes voters' were religious, 75% of 'no' voters". rug May 2015 #49

Did you actually read my post #39? Or just the title? muriel_volestrangler May 2015 #50

"they are what shows you wrong" - not possible. Warren Stupidity May 2015 #53

You gave percentages. Do you have actual numbers? rug May 2015 #56

Do you need help converting percentages to numbers? muriel_volestrangler May 2015 #57

Why, yes I do. Now, how about those numbers? rug May 2015 #58

This is not a primary school maths class muriel_volestrangler May 2015 #59

I see. You don't have the numbers. rug May 2015 #60

Sadly, your attempt at hijacking the thread further was all too predictable muriel_volestrangler May 2015 #61

You know, muriel, instead of typing yoir imagination of me at age 10, you could have posted numbers. rug May 2015 #62

For all I know, you were a delightful human being at age 10 muriel_volestrangler May 2015 #63

Oh, I was. rug May 2015 #64

You realize there are non catholic Christians that take what the pope says as gospel, right? AtheistCrusader May 2015 #16

As an ex-member of a hierarchical church, I am happy to offer mine: Act_of_Reparation May 2015 #41

180 degrees from reality Cartoonist May 2015 #2

Perhaps a new language is called for. bvf May 2015 #3

Funny, that's exactly how I feel about the church. AtheistCrusader May 2015 #5

You atheists have your morals upside down Yorktown May 2015 #8

But if the purpose of life is to praise the creator, then the creator was not perfect. Hoppy May 2015 #10

That's because the sound of DVD players isn't as good as that of believers. Yorktown May 2015 #13

They are totally submissive. Press the button and they play. Hoppy May 2015 #17

But DVD players are not willingly submissive Yorktown May 2015 #18

Conclusion: gays are not humans Yorktown May 2015 #7

The fact that they think that, is the defeat for humanity. LostOne4Ever May 2015 #23

Change from within! Nuns on the bus! PERIL!!!!11ones! trotsky May 2015 #27

Fuck you, Cardinal. trotsky May 2015 #26

So, basically the cardinal thinks Ireland hasn't been sufficiently Smarmie Doofus May 2015 #28

He hasn't and he won't skepticscott May 2015 #29

This was pope 'groovy''s official mouthpiece. Warren Stupidity May 2015 #30

A *phenomenal* stat I saw this week seems to bear this out: Smarmie Doofus May 2015 #54

Vatican stands by Cardinal’s remarks on referendum muriel_volestrangler May 2015 #31

Sad but not surprising. trotsky May 2015 #34

So, covering up kiddie-fiddling priests = fine. Gay marriage = Defeat for humanity PoutrageFatigue May 2015 #36
