YOu get a short papacy after a long one.
Did you really expect a conservative conclave to elect a liberal papacy after the longest conservative papacy for hundreds of years?
Moron.
No need to get personal Matadore.
The Catholic church had this big chance to change its image as an outdated organisation but alas no. Maybe next time ay.
To be honest; I don't think they want to change their image I mean there will be some who do, inevitably, but the catholic church are singleminded in sticking to the gospel and will always be as traditionalist as possible....
If it doesn't adapt to the modern world people are going to start to turn against it more and more though.
Pope = Catholic leader, no?
If you were a Catholic and you honoured the values of 'anti-contraception' I doubt you'd be pissing and moaning. I've heard plenty of people bitching about how they should modernise their whole scene - none of those people have ever been devout Catholics.
Your average Catholic might though.
Hell, I'm supposed to be a Catholic. :eek:
I wouldn't bet on it - just look at his face. It practically screams "I ain't going nowhere, bitches, so you better suck it up"
Despite the increasing problem of AIDS then? You'd rather see millions of people die rather than the Catholic Church change its out of date ways.
I'm sure a lot of women, homosexuals and AIDS sufferings would 'give a fuck' as you so nicely put it, about modernisation.
People's religiousity is diminishing, regardless of modernisation.
thats in today's secularised world...in 3rd world country's religion is growing rapidly...i think the catholic church has a duty to promote good messages instead of sayin "fuck with no condom" well basically thats what they're saying...and people criticise their own political parties for its' choices...you can still be a catholic and criticse the church you know...
So it'll be continued opposition to women priests, abortion, artifical birth control, and the practice of homosexuality.
Don't forget womens rights and contraception.
Whats wrong with those things you mentioned then?
So are lots of things but people do them every day.
Are you against them personally?
and what about the people who reject this ideal...
Shut up.
For a start Only one sixth of the worlds population is Catholic.
Secondly the bible is outdated and is not fit to rule the modern world by.
Thirdly, i don't want to have to have the writings of the bible imposed on me and neither do millions of people.
anyone who rejects the "will of god" whatever that is...
Is it Old Testament or New Testament?
We should be told.
:yes:
