[9] I don't like the Pope either but the Hitler Youth thing was not his fault, he was 14 years old. Come on. Now then, his views on birth control and gay rights are something to dislike him for.

the pope is not dope in my book, has everybody forgotten that he was a nazi youth member? i guess thats forgivable? or is being a nazi unforgivable? at what point is being a nazi forgivable, bishop, cardinal? archbishop? or is only a nazi pope OK? but he was a young boy? ok at what age is being a nazi OK? why did he not refuse? wouldnt that be cool? nope, he just went with the rest of the crowd? didnt he beleive jesus would protect him? i guess not, im sure he probably pointed out some jews for execution just to save himself!! the whole idea of a pope is retarded! but who knows i only know about the papacy from watching 'the tudors' on showtime.

"Elderly church ladies are in a frenzy over this, nobody else" Oh you are sooo wrong. This mid-30's dad, wife and their kid are very excited.

Kelly also rolled out his newest gadget, the Heathen Detector. Depending on your level of disbelief, you get identified on a screen in a truck and either a lightning bolt or Bill Donahue are summoned to your location immediately. It's nice to see that he'll be using the airport named for our blessed ex-President, since most Irish Catholic homes had their 5x7 of the Blessed Mother and the 11x14 of JFK.

He should take the subway to and from all those places . . . unless he doubts that god will protect him.
