You know what your problem is? You athiests all have...

[Zenlitened]

... Pope-envy.


;) :D

[fshrink]

1. I'm perfectly comfortable with my lack of pope!

[Taxloss]

2. I personally have a Pope.

In the sense that I have a man I consider my spiritual leader.

His name is Richard Dawkins.

[PassingFair]

3. He da MAN! n/t

[progressoid]

4. We should send him one of those funky pope hats

[Taxloss]

7. Talk about difficult to post! nt

[progressoid]

12. Oh Yeah, if they x-ray it,

it would look like a warhead!

[pauliedangerously]

14. Dawkins is pretty good...

Same goes for Daniel Dennett. If I had to consider someone my spiritual leader, though, it would be Kurt.

[beam me up scottie]

5. Are you trying to say

your pope is bigger than my pope?

[Jamastiene]

26. I don't

even have a pope, but I can go buy one though. :evilgrin:

[muriel_volestrangler]

6. Dave Allen will always be my pope (n/t)

[zippy890]

8. Ha! LOL

Don't need no pope man telling me what to do, all them MEN that have a main line to some mysterious almighty GOD in heaven up there, they've been keeping women down for thousands of years with this shit.

yeah,

its hierarchical patriarchy, organized religion, pope and all

I don't need no MAN telling me to be kind and good so I can get to heaven. I live my life every day being kind, doing good work, trying to make things better for someone, taking care of my family.

The right and good path. Living according to moral values and ethical standards - NOT because somebody tells us to, or to get into heaven(selfish) but simply because we as humans are capable of it, because we should.

18. You mean we don't work

on a point system?

9. I annointed myself my own personal Popedom

when I was 14. Haven't looked back since.

Actually, I annointed myself quite a bit of prestigious titles.

Its fun... really.

:evilgrin:

[beam me up scottie]

10. Uh, what did you

annoit yourself with?
(or is that too personal?)

[Discord]

15. a subtle blend of herbs and spices.

topped off with a shot of Absolute, and followed with a slice of lemon. Mag-ne-fique!

[beam me up scottie]

17. mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

Absolut.
I prefer gin myself.

[Discord]

19. I always preferred the clear burning fuel.

more stomach environmentally friendly.

[beam me up scottie]

20. You got that right.

Polished off most of a fifth of gin with my bf one night, climbed Mount Mansfield the next morning. I almost lost him though, weak constitution.

21. I blame these damn computers I tell you.

I was in good shape until I became a net junkie..

Now the only sports I play are on the PS2.

[beam me up scottie]

22. Me too.

Was 75 degrees and sunny out today, and where am I?
Okay, I took some pictures and putzed around for about an hour but then this damn thing kept calling my name. It's a horrible addiction, especially since I have no tv.
Dwelling in a red state, one is ever vigil and takes care to never stray far from one's abode.

[Discord]

23. My condolences.

Sorry to hear about your red state location.

I am very happy that I live in the Northeast.

The cops don't beat us up and arrest us when we protest at least.

They gave us a police escort thru downtown Boston, and let us block the recruiting office until they closed it down for the day. One small victory, but it was cool.

[beam me up scottie]

24. Been to Boston.

A couple of times. Loved what I saw. Do you have pictures of your protest? I'd love to see them.
I miss New England. I never realized how different it was. Intolerance is the rule, not the exception here. It's almost expected.
Some caveman will make a racial slur and then look at you like * does, "heh heh heh", like you're supposed to play along. Revolting it is.

Well, thanks for listening.
Springsteen's The Ghost of Tom Joad and I got my rant going.

25. Didn't have a camera with me that day. argh!

I was supposed to meet up with a few friends at the rally, but they never showed. GRRRRRR

They we're supposed to bring a camera and tape recorder so I didn't bring one.

I think someone had a thread on here with some pics.

Title of thread was
Boston Protest Pics
(strangely enough...lol)

16. I try to be "Your Highness" as often as possible...

:rofl:

[YankeyMCC]

11. I beg to differ

In fact I heard this today on the Howard STern show:

One of the people on the show Artie Lang was in Dallas signing his DVD for fans when word spread through the line that the Pope had died and he said that you couldn't find a group of people who were less affected by the news than that crowd.

Well he hasn't seen this group of people here in A&A on DU! ;)

[A HERETIC I AM]

27. If a slow-witted pontif was at the gallows, what would you have?

A dopey Pope on a rope

[zippy890]

28. Ropey Popey Dope

Popey Dopey Rope

Popeye the Pontiff

Conclave the Cardinals, Clevis!

Hi Heretic!
