    well at the last bat Mitvah, I attended, I decided to try some mixed drinks, which I dont do all that much. Had a Tequila sunrise, which I decided wasnt really my thing. Then a Scotch and soda. I finally decided that a nice Merlot was more my thing, anyway.

        Gladsheim, Ysgard: same thing.

        Seems like the real stick-up-ass religionists would go to The Seven Heavens of Celestia - maybe Arcadia for the most annoying ones

        No, the stick-up-the-butt types aren't that good, more neutral. Arcadia to Nirvana.

            yeah just don't get rid of purgatory. That's a great Iron Maiden song. Who really cares about limbo anyways?

              cant speak for RCC, but in traditional Judaism, its Rabbis who make the rules, wherever the torah is not clear. Proof text - "Its not in heaven" IE the law is given to man, to interpret. This makes it much for flexible for dealing with changing conditions, and frees us from fundie insanity. I presume the RCC takes a simlar stance. I cant imagine why secularists are attacking the RCC using what are, quite frankly, fundie Protestant arguments. Unless its just a desire to attack any religion at any time, in any place with any arguments available. Which bespeaks an obsession thats not quite healthy.
              The only unhealthy obsession is religion itself - my snide attack was an attack on religion itself and, basically, what a load of old cobblers it really is

                            It's "cosmology" in the sense the word is used in anthropology rather than in, well, cosmology.

                              Religion is based on fear.

                              It used to be that fear which drove people to the Church. But now people have got smart and nobody is scared of Limbo, Hell etc because they know they don't exist...

                              However I guess in an attempt to catch the gullible waverers, they're lowering the entrance bar so to speak. Limbo seems like a perfect example, with greater and greater numbers of people 'being condemned to limbo' every year they're born - what's the point of joining the catholic church if you're already condemned to Limbo? Now they can go to heaven if they join the catholic church...

                              So it is a classic membership drive because their traditional support base is eroding - that's all church is after the fear, power, money, lies... Just another mundane 'membership club'.

                              Don't get me wrong though, without religion we would be without some of the most spectacular buildings in the world - all because a bunch of frauds persuaded a bunch of chumps to part with their 10%, or whatever the going rate is these days...
                              Is it me, or is MOBIUS a horrible person?
