Why do you think Mother Church (The HRE Vatican) kept people in the dark for so long?

It's amazing how much they speak about the history of the premises, the diversity and multicultural makeup of the 'team' as if those shrouds can mask the true history of the Church

Reading is FUNdamental!



The world is an open book...

A couple days ago, I lugged 20 pounds of books in my backpack by bicycle uptown to Bob's bookstore on the square. He bought two of them, leaving me to truck the rest uphill and back home. He said "oh, you can chuck those into the dumpster out back". I said no way- when I was a kid, Captain Kangaroo taught me to respect books.

So I hauled ass back home sweating my balls off. And it was good.

Now, each evening after dinner, I strap on that backpack filled with 15 pounds of books and bicycle my way around town 3 sometimes 8 miles. Great cardio workout.

Lofty goals.

But fuck Mother Church. It's like praising the Moonies and Scientologists

"There’s no real conflict between science and religion. Religion is the recognition of the deeper dimensions that the science reveals to us. What is in conflict is the science of 2000 B.C., which is what you have in the Bible, and the science of the twentieth century A.D. You have to disengage the messages of the Bible from its science." -- Joseph Campbell

and the Church will never truly do that. They play Jesuit games
