    Story is basically a guy gets a pre ticked permission slip home from a school chaplain for his kid to attend a religious play, he aint impressed and so begins an email conversation with the chaplain - have a read if you have a few minutes spare. I thought it was very funny anyway!

    That is brilliant. I wish we got permission slips home about religious indoctrination - I'd have a template now (not being quite as witty as this guy...) :D

    giggleworthy? I have tears.

    The style of comedy in the emails reminds of the sketch in 'Life of Brian', "WON'T HAGGLE?" :D
    Nobody does irritating characters that are hilarious, like Monty Python.

    That might also explain why they are so many Catholics.

    Cat holics

    Addicted to cats.

    Cats were worshipped in Egypt.

    Horus was born on the 25th of december to a virgin mother.

    Jesus is Horus reborn.

    Jesus was a cat.

    Jesus wouldn't stand up to his aul' fella. Jesus, as you say, was indeed, a pussy.

    It's bad enough having the Christians and other religions making up all sorts of crazy sh1t up, can we not start to do the same please?

    I'm sure a lot of people will have heard by now that this kind of crap stirred up by Zeitgeist and The Christ Conspiracy is a load of bollocks.

    Isis, mother of Horus was a goddess, not a human so already the parallel to Mary is weak. Secondly, Osiris, husband and brother of Isis was murdered by his brother Set and his body scattered to the ends of the earth. Isis gathered up the pieces, stitched him back together, spoke an incantation and then had sex with him, conceiving Horus in the process, so not a virgin birth.

    The only really definitive references to Horus in the bible are the story of the infant Moses (which is pretty ubiquitous in mythology) and the story of Lazarus.

    I never understood why they bothered... it was crazy how much just doesn't mesh with the various myths...

    Many Catholics do kind of basically, from a functional point of view, treat Mary as a goddess...
    Also Isis never found Osiris' penis and had to use a stand in made of gold... I'm not sure if that counts as sex? I mean these things with religions can be pretty weird... like the technical virgins thing in the states.

    I'm sure well-heeled female onanists would disgagree with you.
