    Do you agree?

    Never been there so I don't know what their door policy is like.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 68,317 ✭✭✭✭seamus


    I agree wholeheartedly.

    Homesexuals cannot enter heaven because there is no heaven.


  • Subscribers Posts: 32,859 ✭✭✭✭5starpool


    When will people here stop caring what the hell the Catholic Church has to say on things?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 723 ✭✭✭destroyer


    There'll be fcuk all priests in heaven so.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,883 ✭✭✭wudangclan


    Not true.
    They can enter through the back door.

    If the Cardinal says gays can't enter, then don't try. Because he'll be there blocking your passage (since your gay and all that).


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 9,330 ✭✭✭Gran Hermano


    Heaven ???

    Is that where your imaginary friends live?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 9,463 ✭✭✭KTRIC


    Heaven is now the reserve of child rapists and corrupt politicians.

    I want to go to Hell anyway, its warmer and all the coolest people are there.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 661 ✭✭✭Charlie3dan


    How is that any different to what they've been saying for centuries?
    Don't mind them religious eeegits!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,497 ✭✭✭omahaid


    There isn't much the catholic church could say to surprise me at this stage. They do seem to be actively trying to drive away people at this stage, seems a bit bizarre but if thats what they want who am I to judge?

    Well, see, it's actually a gate and there's a fellow called Peadar there. He stops the bad guys and let's the good guys in. He's a fairly quick operator to manage to sort out the thousands of people who arrive every minute. The unions could do with some of that productivity these days no doubt.

    When you get in the gate you arrive in paradise, where everything is free, lovely and peaceful and with angels helping you all the time.

    Breaking News: Homosexuals say that 'Cardinals can't join the orgy'......the Church rethinks its previous stance


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 22,559 ✭✭✭✭AnonoBoy


    ....and next week on "Cardinals say the darndest things.....!"


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,368 ✭✭✭Smart Bug


    I voted yes, 'cos there is no heaven.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,164 ✭✭✭hobochris


    I think its funny how people listen to these self appointed authorities on religion, especially given the hypocrisy.

    To play devils advocate, Say Christianity is right and God exists, Who appointed authority to these priests and cardinals to preach and dictate how,when and whom may be part of the Christian religions?

    Where does it state that these people are the voice of their god as apposed to being some cult of degenerates who are capitalizing on peoples beliefs and spreading their own personal prejudices as "the word of god"?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 428 ✭✭bookerboy


    Heaven?? Haven't heard of it.If they have a strict door policy the gays can always stick with the George.

    Charm offensive? :rolleyes: How is this in any way news? Of course religion (pretty much all religion) is against homosexuality, thems are the their retarded rules and they're entitled to be honest about them rather than pretending to change their principles for a "charm offensive"

    You see, they can say 'God spoke unto me, he sayeth thou who is gay shall not reap the joy of the righteous and their names shall not be entered onto the Holy Guest List of Heaven and they shalt not drink from thy cup, nor eat from thy Holy Trough, but shall be consigned to the second circle for eternity'.

    Religious types can get away with anything if they say 'God spaketh to me'.

    In the same right a believer can just say 'God spaketh to me' and said you are a false voice and should not be listened to.

    This guy gets it.

    And now for the inevitable "history would be a lot more peaceful is we had no religion" horseshit.

    Of course gays don't get into Catholic Heaven. It's against their religion.

    i have news for this cardinal, the only person in heaven is jesus[thats what the bible tells us] its in acts 2;29-35 quote only person who has ascended into heaven is jesus.not mary not any of the apostles or saints are there yet,not untill the resurrection, but dont tell any of the priests they have yet to read it themselves


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 8,493 ✭✭✭DazMarz


    It's high time that the Catholic Church was stripped of everything (power, wealth etc.) and left people the hell alone. Why people still listen to them at all is beyond me. Organised religion has no place in the modern world.

    Bad move. Who is going to play in goal for Heaven hurling team?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 16 Kiraandliamo


    Id love to know where these guys get theyre info... think about it, the bible is like thousands of years old which wasnt originally written in english. This leads me to believe that through thousands of years of translation mistakes must have been made. then they didnt like the lies in the forst bible so they made new ones up for the new testament. Its a bit like a chinese whisper... everybody added their own little bit to make it more interesting!

    To be fair, who is anyone to judge on who gets in where... pardon te pun!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 122 ✭✭demag


    Breaking news, man in frock says something stupid about imaginary place. Why do people still give a sh1t about the opinions of these people?

    My idea of heaven is when I die remaining dead.

    My idea of hell is eternal life in a place that only accepts people who sacrifice all objective thought in exchange for false reassurance, who commit barbaric acts and evil deeds and can call them just, and who support others that do so by not speaking out or even acknowledging membership = support.


    To hell with heaven, bring on the worms.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,477 ✭✭✭Kipperhell


    Many people who call themselves Catholic don't follow the rules and I would say many don't even know some of them. Like the Mafia the Catholic Church is fading.
    Any religion should be allowed state their conditions and those that believe it is some kind of democracy pretty much misunderstand how they actually are. Many religions claim some divine right like the Catholic Church does.

    As Jesus said he would be back within the life time of the apostles you got to wonder why people choose to think his word is accurate on any grounds.

    Why? Does it have enough fairies at the moment?

    Not really. The 'church' said homosexuality wasn't sinful but homosexual acts are.

    All just words. You ask someone in that position their real opinion totally off the record and I'm sure they'd be all for burning teh gheys at the stake.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,333 ✭✭✭bad2dabone


    ok so if you're gay or a lesbian and your idea of heaven is bumming another man or drinking from the furry cup, who's to say you haven't been in heaven already?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,831 ✭✭✭genericguy


    does this mean that the male priests with a taste for young boys can't get in?
