    Catholic memes. I assume if you're actually Catholic all these are f*cking hilarious.

    I've always maintained that religious people just can't internet. I see little on that page to convince me otherwise.

    Don't duck prayer :mad:

    Ha. That reminds me of an incident from my college days. Two Jehovah's Witnesses called to the door and asked if they could have a chat. I invited them in (full disclosure- one of them was gorgeous, but I always enjoyed talking to these guys) and had a nice chat with them about religion. After an hour they ran out of steam, said "you've really thought about this, haven't you?" and asked if it was OK if they left. They never came back, which I was a little disappointed about.

    "Stand Back! I'm religious and I know all about this anti-Syrian meteorite!"
    Christian Post wrote:
    A new church in Russia believes that a sunken meteorite contains sacred scriptures and is responsible for the worsening situation in Syria. The Chelyabinsk meteorite has several followers who believe the meteorite contains sacred scriptures that are meant to be handled with care.

    "The meteorite that hit Russia's Ural Mountains in mid-February contained 'scriptures' that can usher in a new age on Earth," followers of the new religion told local media. "Mishandling the meteorite could cause harm throughout the world and may already be fueling the bloody civil strife in Syria," Andrei Breivichko told 10BL.RU news.

    The meteorite sunk into a nearby lake and members of the Church of the Chelyabinsk Meteorite believe that removing it from the water could cause irreparable harm. "Psychic priests" of the cult are apparently the only ones equipped to handle the meteorite; if the meteorite is to be removed, the priests believe they should be allowed to handle it, and then place it in a temple.

    "I think it won't hurt Chelyabinsk to become a truly holy city, home to a great temple that will be the object of pilgrimage for millions of people from across the world," Breivichko said.

    "A lot of the information is still on the heavenly bearer itself and that needs visionaries to have closer contact with the tablets," Breivchenko said. "We can already see the noosphere's indignation at constant attempts to salvage the meteorite in the super-charged international tension around Syria."

    Scientists explained that there is no special power associated with the meteorite and will retrieve a large part of it on Sept. 25. The meteorite's fall was captured on cameras and quickly went viral in February. Over 1,600 people were injured and a great deal of damage resulted from the fall.

    Members of the cult gather in the place where it fell and hold services to worship the meteorite and pray for divers to stop their attempt to retrieve the meteorite from the lake. There are currently 50 members, but the group is reportedly growing and plans to file for legal recognition.

    Bloody hell, nice one. She took no shít from the muppet. Nice one bringing up the 1000 quid they paid him too. I'd say the sight of her florescent jeans when she walked out gave him a heart attack. One can but hope.

    Rejoice in the awareness of feeling stupid, for that’s how you end up learning new things. If you’re not aware you’re stupid, you probably are.

    Mecca is of course home to a rock just like it, and a very prosperous city it is too. As the great man himself said (L. Ron Hubbard) "the easiest way to make money is to start your own religion".
    Fair play to the Ruski chancers :D

    Couldn't resist looking up the current Egyptian Pound exchange rate. 1000LE = a little over 100 euro. Wonder do the Iona crew get paid anything to spout nonsense appear on Prime Time et al??

    Fingal County Council are certainly not competent to be making decisions about the most important piece of infrastructure on the island. They need to stick to badly designed cycle lanes and deciding on whether Mrs Murphy can have her kitchen extension.

    Yes. Always a payment for being on broadcast media - it can be little more than a token but there is a payment.



    I know this as I have had stints of being a medjia hoor :cool:

    The Irish Times -- going down in my estimation every day, I have to point out -- produced what can only be the most obviously makey-uppey letter in the history of agony aunt pages.

    http://www.irishtimes.com/life-and-style/tell-me-about-it-have-i-been-living-with-a-sex-addict-1.1537310

    Summary: a "practicing catholic" who believes that sex is all about "two people expressing their love for each", but who has sex with her husband perhaps ten times a year, discovers that he five-knuckle-shuffles every day and is so shocked that she moves into the spare room to help him stop. Her son's at it too.
