I swear, the Catholic Church is a real pain in the ass. The leader of it is probably one of the worst parts. Pope Benedict XVI rang in the New Year at the Vatican by crusading against anyone that does not hold up the 'values' of a traditional family, one that is comprised of man, woman and children. His comments are nothing but offensive and a slap at the true tenets of peace. That is to love all of God's creatures, not just the ones that think and talk like you, ya ignorant bastard.
From PageOne Q:
This guy is a nutcase, certified by the church and unfortunately followed by millions. Instead of talking about true world peace, he only creates more division in the world. As the leader of a large religious faith, Benedict only invites scorn upon himself while violating that whole "love thy neighbor" thing."Those who are hostile, even unknowingly, to the institution of the family ... make peace fragile for the entire national and international community," the Pope told crowds gathered in a sunny St. Peter's Square.
The German-born Benedict has made defending the traditional family a priority since being elected Pontiff in 2005 following the death of John Paul II, focusing much of his attention on Europe.
Gay marriage is legal in several European countries including predominantly Catholic Spain, where hundreds of thousands of Catholics rallied on Sunday in favour of the traditional family. The Pontiff had addressed the Spanish rally via a live video-link.
