This confuses, titilates, and intrigues me.

Just another couple of quotes morphed into a public image they love to portray
Drivel my friend. Yahoo news drivel

One day they call it satanism (I'm talking about what the pope said about HP some years ago.), the next, they praise it. They're just trying not to lose the young christians that read HP and love it. They know that a lot of them will eventually side to HP over religion... *sigh*

After that, they don't understand why they're losing people...

Idk... the whole Priests = Child molesters kinda made me ashamed to have anything to do with Christianity/Catholicism a while back >_>

qwertyas · 07-13-2009

Wouldn't be the first time and won't be the last, that a person in position of power do something like this. Be they religious persons, or parents, or step parents, or grandparents, aunts or uncles... Sometimes, even older brothers or older sisters.

Humans abuse of theirs found powers over others and it's been like this since the dawn of humanity...

So, instead of reading the books, they watched the movie... Okaaay.

Can't say I blame them. The books get dull in the middle =/

Apparently, major organizations are not allowed to change their minds, or like some parts of some things and dislike some parts of others. =/

It's not very nice to try to paint anything into an extreme.

Didn't they try to paint it as Satanic though? So they were "not very nice" about it.

Yeah, the Catholic Church has committed more evil than any fictional character has ever dreamed of doing.

Most of which they refuse to acknowledge.

And no, not singling them out. But they are the topic at hand.

Yes, yes, we all know, the church is evil, and you're all cool for thinking so.

However, did you know they want you to die?

>"In addition, the spastic search for immortality epitomized by Voldemort is stigmatized," the review said.

rofl how amusing a transhumanist acting as if immortality isn't narcissistic.
Death is a natural part of life. I can't wait until the day they hang ray kurweil like the subhuman nazi filth he is.
