Just when you think organized religion can't get any dumber, ...


... along comes the Catholic Church. All we need to maximize the entertainment value is for Patrick Ross to stop by there and try to correct PZ Myers. Yeah, that would be some serious pants-pissing good times.

What does "asking for trouble" mean? Is he inciting violence against an identifiable group, perchance?

1. Catholicism is too biologically heritable! Just ask ty-guy.

2. I think, probably, moral DNA is like the immortal soul; it's there, but medical science can't find it.

3. What I like about moral DNA is that it is both absolute, brooking no dissent, and it's like classified intelligence — you're not allowed to see the actual stuff unless you're cleared — you just have to take their word for it. Hopefully the new archbishop will start torturing people to make them admit that people who argue for gay marriage "are asking for trouble."

The Catholic Church is on an offensive against reason, I guess. This moral DNA stuff, though, probably stems from inherent anti-semitism.

Parhaps it's time to open the dictionary and look up "metaphor".

"There's an in-built code of right and wrong that's embedded in the human DNA"We're all well aware of what a metaphor is. This is not one.

Catholicism is too biologically heritable! Just ask ty-guy.Ha ha ha. OMG, you're so clever.

I'm still a Catholic because I grew up in the Jesuit tradition, which isn't nearly as stupid as what North American protestants too often believe about all Catholics. And back then, when progressives still went to the Church, no one fucking talked about abortion or gay people. Jamming your nose into the crotches of other people was considered unseemly.

Now, with the resurgence of fundamentalism everywhere, most notably in your retarded country and a Church burdened with a senile nazi panicking at its inevitable demise in the Western World, the psychotic virgins in dresses are in full-blown meltdown.

I don’t know when Holy Mother the Church (HMC) first began talking about abortion in Canada but I remember very well when HMC went ape shit in the US. It was in 1974, right after the Quiet Revolution (QR) and the U. S. Supreme Court’s decision in Roe v Wade, 410 US 113 (1973). When ty-guy was a teenybop. And by the way, HMC began admitting perverts to the seminaries right after Vatican II (VII) repealed all that MORAL DNA, which, why do you think they had their QR in the first place. Thankfully, praise the Lord, moral DNA has RETURNED FROM THE DEAD, The Holiest Nazi (THN) having been Closet Pope (CP) since 1978.

I take it, from the dearth of Jesuit institutions of higher education in Canada, that our correspondent ti-guy apprenticed in a Jesuit high school. Hah! One chooses his university but one does not choose his secondary school. That is chosen for one by the carriers of his DNA. Therefore, I say again, Catholicism is hereditary. Not that there’s anything wrong with being Catholic.

As far as THN’s panic at the inevitable demise of HMC in the Western World is concerned, anyone who thinks things are bad in La Belle Province ought to go to Ireland one of these days.

Back to “not that there’s anything wrong with being Catholic,” East Lansing’s Math Wizard Nate Silver mentioned lately that HMC recognizes the role of sin in Global Warming, or words to that effect. http://www.fivethirtyeight.com/2009/04/pope-and-planet.html. Furthermore, THN is squarely on the Prime Mover side of the creationism debate. http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/19956961/. And let’s not forget the “living wage.” Rerum Novarum

The thing with Jesuits, for you North American Protestants (NAP’s) who don’t know these things, is that the Jesuits decided to abandon the Catholic masses to the nuns, who continue, like a bunch of fornicating and adulterous NAP’s, to confuse Christianity with superstition and magic; the Jesuits went after the brightest of the male, and, lately, female, scions of Catholicism, in order, thereby, to grind their minds down to the point where they were not only superior to those of the fornicating and adulterous NAP’s, but had the kind of grace the nobility had before the fall of the Empire in the West. Jesuits, in other words, produce a level of smart-assyness that cannot be replicated by any competing pedagogical tradition.

And the reason for this —let’s not forget the point of this argument — is SUPERIOR MORAL DNA.

Which rather makes ty-guy a contradiction in terms. He thoroughly has been compromised by his SUPERIOR MORAL DNA but refuses to deal with it.

The Jesuits are just more educated, Seer.

Take your meds.
