It's NOT a death cult...

[trotsky]

SO STOP SAYING THAT!

1. And young people are FLOCKING back to it!

I read it right here on DU, so it must be true. Millennials are especially flocking back to the various churches like schools of zombie lemmings. And now that we have that Good Man in the Vatican behind us, we can do anything! This is a whole fresh new beginning so you better get on this train or get left behind, atheist losers!

And I still say the Catholic church should consider making that wax dummy the next Pope. The idiot media would fall over itself complimenting the RCC on its bold stand for social justice. While her being dead would suit conservative Catholics, since her un-living condition agrees exactly with those Bible quotes about women keeping silent in the church. Win-win!

2. That is true. It's a death-and-suffering cult.

3. Their obsession with her death is almost as creepy as their obsession with her virginity. n/t

4. Bob Boudelang...

A sudden rush of nostalgia to the head... those were the days when I started lurking.
