The whole religion thrives on hot air, it's all they have. There's no 'there' there, it's in the same realm as the Easter Bunny and unicorns. And every bit as valid.. Why do you think FrG ignores me now, he realized he can no longer defend the indefensible. It's the first step to stumbling onto the truth.. If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose. |

Vatican Will Stop Selling Cigarettes "Selling discounted tobacco to employees and pensioners, without the increasingly stringent taxes imposed in surrounding Italy, has long been a source of revenue for the tiny Vatican City State. Many people in Rome have bought cigarettes through acquaintances at the Vatican." The Church will do anything to make money, they have always been this way. That cigarettes kill people has been known since the early 60's, but why let that stand in the way of profit. Such hypocrites, the mind boggles. https://www.nytimes.com/2017/11/09/world/europe/pope-francis-vatican-cigarettes.html If you take a risk, you may lose.

| Evenbob Member since: Oct 24, 2012 Threads: 146 Posts: 25011 | This is why sin is a meaningless word. The pope is saying that the media 'sins' when it brings up old scandals. Pope: Media Sins by Dredging Up, Sensationalizing Old News VATICAN CITY (AP) — Pope Francis is criticizing journalists who dredge up old scandals and sensationalize the news, saying it's a "very serious sin" that hurts all involved. https://www.yahoo.com/news/pope-media-sins-dredging-sensationalizing-old-news-171809101.html Just like everybody else, the pope thinks sin is something he doesn't like or approve of. He has no idea what the word means because it means whatever you think it does now. It no longer means an offense against your mythical god. If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose. |

LOL! That's exactly what I was thinking. It's already been discussed, how dare anybody bring it up again. We were caught, we begrudgingly said we were sorry, now the topic is closed. It doesn't take much imagination to envision how things were run when these religious zealots had all the power. It's frightening to think about. If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose. |

Yeah, the NYT, there's a reliable source. Talk about the fake news capital, NYT is it. Trump gives out 'Fake News Awards' to CNN, N.Y. Times, Wash Post If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose. |

Proud subscriber to NYT and WaPo here. Trump's awards WERE the fake news, not whatever he called out. Never doubt a small group of concerned citizens can change the world; it's the only thing ever has |
