Visit "The Independent Writer" and have a good laugh on Jim Ippolito Religious Ramblings It seems fitting that on Easter Sunday I take brief notice of happenings in the world of religion. While Catholics are feasting on a traditional rack of lamb and the wealthy are dining at McDonalds, a spokesman, a bishop I guess, has publicly proclaimed Democratic candidate John Kerry not a candidate for the reception of the sacrament of communion. This statement was issued from deep within the bowels of The Archdiocese of Boston, that perenial Paradise of Priestly Pedophiles. The reason Kerry has been barred from partaking of the consecrated host is his support of the Pro-Choice movement. I guess the Archdiocese never read the part about, "let he who is without sin cast the first stone." Meanwhile as our brave troops in Iraq lose their lives in an effort to promote, among other things, freedom of religion, the two major Muslim factions, which hold historically opposite views, the Sunnis, and Shiites, have now begun to join forces in opposing the Coalition. I guess these two groups have heard about: "The enemy of my enemy is my friend." For me the old saying," Lord save me from a religious person," seems like the best route to follow. "For centuries, theologians have been explaining the unknowable in terms of the-not-worth-knowing." H. L. Mencken (1880 - 1956) |
