Pope Stamps His Influence on Catholic Church

spen666

As I was cycling home last night, I happened to notice the sign outside our local Catholic Church read "S.S. Peter & Paul RC Church"

Now, I know the Pope is alleged to have had a Nazi influenced upbringing, but I think naming churches after members of the SS is taking things a bit far

PS does the Pope ride a bicycle?

Maybe it's SS for single speed?

Now the pope sliding a fixie into the Basilica, that I would pay money to see!

Having a dull afternoon? You might want to try a nice cup of tea rather than trolling.. :roll:

Not only does he ride, but has a snazzy wee number.... Think I saw him on the Etape on Sunday....

Does every post you make in response to mine have to be a personal attack?

heh, that's not trolling... the idea of the pope riding a fixed is quite entertaining - with his swiss bodyguards on machines round him too...

Could be working part time as a messenger in Rome if the church is lacking funds

Its definately a single speed, loving the integrated rack look, while a little wide the broom handle bars could be the next big thing, but a quill stem, come on, that is so last century!

So what do we think the Archbishop of Canterbury rides, a 'bent perhaps :twisted: :twisted: :twisted: :twisted: - actually, that more likely to be a catholic priest riding a newbie 'bent isn't it?

i bet he uses spd paedals

If I may add a serious note - I do have a serious issue with catholicism(I'm seriously lapsed) ,& C of E etc, it's the issue of the pomp & the circumstance . If jesus was to reappear would he recognise his own?. Also god must have hell (pun intended) of an inferiority complex when he appears to want all this praise- bowing & scraping, this applies to most of religions.Remember religions own some of the best slums in the world!

no, you may not - this is not appropriate behaviour.

Triviality is the order of the day

Now, insteead consider if the pope would beat the Archbishop of Canterbury in a triathalon

pastey_boy

the pope regularly beats bishops

jesus (if allowed) would win hands down though it'd be a run (on water), ride and then run on land, BUT; his sandals really wouldn't be very good for any of the three...

One would assume that he rides a Pinarello Prince (of the Apostles).

Urbi et orbi.

Surely, were he to go for one of the Pinarello flock, it'd be the Dogma...

Yep, he's worked his way up from the SS Boyscouts & is now head of the biggest corporation in history - people everywhere are bending over backwards to appease him, look: http://www.thedailymash.co.uk/news/inte ... 004152644/

All religion bashing aside, I quite liked the old pope - he was nice & fluffy. The new one has the cold dead eyes of a killer... or a vampire, not sure. He's probably a nice person though.
