All y’all who’ve read PTB throughout the years know we surely do love the ladies. They’re smart and curvy and, for the most part, smell great. Long-timers will also note that there’s no love lost between PTB and the Catholic Church.
Now, it’s been posited here before that religion, by its nature, is a bunch of hypocritical bullshit. The douchebags with all the power make rules for the rest of us while they do whatever in the hell they want. You listening to me John “Able Semen” Ensign? That being said, this weekend the Catholic Church set a new low. I know what you’re sayin’, “Catholics can hit a new low?” Yup.
Last week, the Vatican announced…wait for it…wait for it…the Vatican announced that ordaining female priests was as bad as pedophilia. Aye caramba! Are they serious about this? Can they really believe that letting a woman become a priest is the equivalent sin of anally raping an eight year old boy? Has the Vatican lost its collective marbles?
Here’s the crux of the biscuit…as long as religions focus on all the things people are not allowed to do, rather than preach what people should do, they’ll soon be on a path to Bolivia. Since the beginning, religions have been dividing people rather than uniting them. Maybe now they’re getting so divisive that no one will want to be a part of it. And JZeus spins in His grave.

Instead of ordaining women priests in the Catholic church - I think they should REQUIRE priests to be good catholic men, by demanding they get married and have 12 screaming kids. Every sperm is sacred right?? Priests sure talk a good game about what it is to be catholic - too bad they don't actually believe in it themselves. Nice timing - the next day after you publish this the story breaks about gay catholic priests partying together and leading double lives, which is no real surprise to me. I don't think it's a secret that the priesthood has long been filled with gay men.
So while it's good, PJ, that you have finally taken a stand against something that's actually bad - priests committing pedophilia - what say you now about those who didn't want gays as boy scout leaders? I'm guessing not much. It's easy to bash Catholics - or Christians. They don't strap bombs on themselves and walk into crowded restaurants or buses. You claim to love the ladies, but if you really walked the walk you'd be as rabidly against sharia law as you are against republicans or Catholics. Sharia law is the single largest threat to women's rights but I doubt I'll hear you actually defending women's rights (or gay rights for that matter) by denouncing Islam like you do Catholicism. Which makes you about as "edgy" as bowling ball. Rail against the straw men and safe targets that everyone else in the media already does like Sarah Palin, or Rush Limbaugh... but to truly take a stand about a real threat? Not a chance... That's ok PJ. Nobody expects any more of you.
