The Pope

[Gavin Scott]

The Pope's visit was a big success.
Previous Orange Lodge posters on this forum have suggested that it would not.
Crowd levels were at the same level as the 1982 Papal Visit.
The Catholic Church does not condone child abuse or holocaust denial.
Anti -Papist layabouts such as Dr. Ian Paisley, Gavin Scott, Peter Tatchell and Stephen Fry should be ashamed of themselves.

"Anti-papist layabouts"? "Orange Lodge posters"?

You're a weirdo.

Why would I need to be ashamed? I don't have billions of pounds to give to the poor. If I did, I would. Does the Church?

I don't spread mis-information to Africans about the use of condoms and HIV/AIDS. Does the Church?

What's your stance on that, bigmouth?

[Sput]

On the upside gav, you're in some mighty impressive company there!

Ooh. Thorough response I see. Incidentally, I said nothing about being inarticulate - and at the risk of blowing my own trumpet, its not an accusation I think you can levy at me.

Anyway, I have strong personal feelings when it comes to matters of faith. I believe that its a matter for every individual, and I wouldn't presume to question that.

But I have a moral position to take - and that is over the questionable tactics of the Catholic Church in developing countries.

I ask you again - what is your position over the use of condoms in African countries?

Really? here's Bellahouston Park in Glasgow in 1982:

Perhaps he got his imperial/metric conversion wrong.
