1. The Marquis De Sade used to masturbate with a pair of crucifixes
That involves religion, so it must be good.

3. Hey. Knock yourself out. Always fun to make fun of people on
a day that means a lot to them.

11. Really? You think that comment was making fun of them?
Also, who's to say that this day doesn't mean a lot to me too?? I had just heard Judas Priest on the Radio and thought it was a interesting choice for this day.

10. It's not technically one of the holy days of Obligation as far as I know...
but most Catholics will at least attend Church on Easter. I was always part of the Choir so it always felt like a day of obligation to me.

7. You assume you had such an obligation to start with
...and that's a poor assumption. Nowhere in the Bible does God command anyone to participate in organized religion. So from a Judaeo–Christian theological standpoint, the answer to your question is most certainly, yes. Listening to Judas Priest qualifies you for the kingdom of heaven at least as much, and not less than, going to church.

9. Only if you listen to certain tracks
"Let us Prey/Call For The Priest", "Metal Gods", "Defenders of the Faith", and maybe "One Shot at Glory".

15. No, not really
unless you go to Rick Warren's church, in which case Judas Priest would be better. :eyes:

16. I sure hope you're not accusing me of attending
that fundie asshat's tax ride-off he calls a church?? I'd rather chew my own foot off than go to that place. I know I'm new round these parts but I do come in peace and I'm not looking to start any religious battles. If I wanted that I would of gone to GD. :hi:
