1. The pope is a lying coward and fraud
He tells people that his Jesus will protect them and save them from death.
His Jesus knew the chance he took by walking among the the unwashed of his time
and believed in himself.
The pope rides around in a pope mobile because he is afraid of dying. Surrounds himself with body guards.
A rock has more faith in his god than the pope, the pope has no faith for if he did he would put his life in the
hands of his lord and trust him to protect him. He preaches others to believe in god and trust him
but he has no trust.

The pope is the anti-christ, leading others down the path of sin and a life in the hell fires.

2. You touch on something sthat I feel is true of all religious leaders
They sell eternal salvation in exchange for obedience to the church but all of their actions seem to indicate that they really don't belive their own hype.

The good book preaches rejection of material wealth? But they live in castles and adorn themselves in gold.

The good book preaches tolerance, all they do is point fingers.

The good book says that we will get our reward in heaven, they get their rewards here on earth.

etc....

6. There is no real anti-christ, Ratso is just another in a long line of
Elmer Gantry-esque religious leaders who decieve millions to perpetuate what must be the longest running fraud in history.

Let's see, I think I'll start a religious organization that requires fealty through contributions, and while these folks are giving me money I'll tell them what to do, I should be able to parlay this ability into getting favorable treatment from the civilian authorities since I will be able to deliver unto them an obediant and supportive mass of citizens, to top this off i'll get tax breaks.

All of this for selling essentially...........nothing. The church sells you nothing in exchange for your life and soul.

The Pope isn't any different than Benny Hinn, or Joseph Smith or Elron Hubbard, charlatans the lot of them.

19. I guess I feel I am entitled to my beliefs
the same as one that sees the devil and Satan in everyone that does not follow the catholic faith.

I feel he is the opposite as Christ ..... so he is the Anti-Christ

3. John Ratzenberger is a Republican
Actor John Ratzenberger, known partly for his role as Cliff Clavin in the 1980s sitcom "Cheers," slammed the Democratic bill as a form of socialism.

"These are Woodstock Democrats," he said at the rally. "We have to remember where their philosophy comes from. It doesn't come from America. It comes from overseas. It comes from socialism. And socialism is a philosophy of failure."

12. You use a Marx quote as your tagline yet you defend organized religion
what up wit dat dawg?

Or does your preference for Marx not include his opposition to the church.

15. Good question.
While Marx referred to it in his "Critique of the Gotha Program", it's also used in the second book of Acts.

The problem with an organized religion is its use by the state and the ruling classes to divide and to promote their own agenda. Without that it is either benign or innocuous.

Broad smears are always divisive and disruptive.

17. If we could divide and disrupt organized religion
and wake the automatons that it has created to bend to it's will to wake up and smell reality we would live in a better world.

Defending ratzo and/or catholicism, both of whom fit perfectly into your description of religion and the state, seems contradictory to both your tagline and your explanation of it.

18. Calling millions of people automatons is just the way to do it.
And it's its. You don't want to appear stupid while you're doing it.

11. They are both rich and hypocritical right wing conservatives
But they do not have the same name, and you do understand that the actor is an actor, not a mailman, correct? A Republican activist actor.

14. One is lovably funny and the other is dark scary
One wouldn't hurt a child and the other oversees child abuse.

Jesus! I wish I were exaggerating.
