Halloween Priests

voz es

I dont get it, dressing up as a priest making the sgin of the cross having a big cross around your neck, mock confessions etc. It's plain wrong , mocking something that millions of people strongly believe in. How is this acceptable in modern age Ireland with our culture of being right and fair. I'm not saying i'm perfect like, sure i laughed my ass of watching Fr. Ted as a young lad.

Do ye think this is right and if so why?
Is it ok to mock anything as long as it is funny?

The same could be said about Elvis and Darth Vader.

Apparently dressing up as Mr T is frowned upon by fake u.s liberals

Just because millions of people believe something, doesn't mean its not made up pure horseshíte.

There it is. Now the thread descends into a george carlin tribute

if you thought it was OK for a tv program to be made about them making fun of them then it's OK for people to dress up as priests at h'ween.

and it's probably alright to mock something even if it's not funny

I hate the way they take the piss out of Zombies.

Zombies have feelings to you know.

Its important to respect opinions too though. I can disagree with something without the need to mock it.

If someone plans on dressing up why should they concerned about what other people think?

Why is it important to respect other peoples opinions? What if it was their opinion that black people should be slaves again?

Fair point some opinions i would not respect or agree with. I dont view religion as just an opinion though its a belief and when there is no true answer of the outcome of having this belief its wrong to dismiss it. All agree that slavery is a negative action, there have been results from this action before that in my opinion were negative and thus i dismiss it as a negative action. So when somebody dismisses religion its a belief there dismissing and not a fact as they dont have all the answers of where it all started or where it will all finish. So its fair and reasonable for somebody to come to a conslusion of how it will all end up, be it just nothing, reincarnitation or an afterlife. Its not fair to dismiss something that you cant argue to be wrong. So its surley just ignorant to mock it .

Get your facts right b4 talking crap!!!!

Due to acute neuropathological degenaration in the pre-frontal lobe within 48hrs of primary reanimation, ALL emotional response in the Zombie is rendered nugatory.

A spade in the nuts, that'll do it.

You lost me at "our culture of being right and fair."

They're not dressing as priests, they're dressing as paedophiles.


That and maybe they were dressing up like Ted or Dougal?

geetar

priests are scary

/end thread.


on a seperate note, people dress up as butchers. not the kind you see in your local, but the ones that murder people. same diference. some priests are evil, therefore they make good halloween costumes.

Many state Jedi as their religion. Are you as offended by those who dress up as Darth Vader?

So does this apply just to religion? If an adult believes in the tooth fairy must we treat their belief with respect and not dismiss it?
