Whitee - Purveyor of Fine Beats...Provider of Lyrical Treats
Music, culture & politics. We'll also update Whitee's recording progress.Saturday, November 25, 2006
I was at the gym last night...no, this isn't another rant about homoerotic spotting or eating garbage plates in the gym. I saw the cover of the latest edition of Time Magazine. My only reaction was - huh? This was the cover:
The Pope Confronts Islam? The Pope? Confronts Islam?
OK, that's like a dog confronting a guy who can lick his own balls...
No, wait. That's like Ted Haggard confronting gay meth-heads.
Or, Jerry Faldwell confronting, pompus, hypocritical fatasses.
Or Dubya confronting terrorists.
You get the point.
Look, I'm not defending Islam, but I am saying that it's freakin hypocritical for anyone from the Catholic Church to be talking to anyone about violence...or terror...or treatment of women...or children. As long as there is one gigantic, ornamented church in the world and one hungry person, the Pope needs to sit his ass down and shut up. He should be having the world's biggest yard sale in front of the Vatican and using the money for sustainable agricultural projects in Africa & Central America.
Oh, and that lovely piece of semi-historical fiction...hmmmm...what's that thing called again? Oh yeah, the Bible. What a lovely piece of non-violence that is.
Now, I got issues with Islam as well (and not what most would think are the obvious ones, either), and I'll focus on that when Time's cover story is Islam Confronts Catholics.

How much do you give to African relief? Hypocrite indeed.
Isn't it fummy how people claim that only people that hate the Church want it to give away all its possessions. Why don't democratic donors give away all their possessions. Also, If you can't see a difference between the Catholic Church and radical Islam, you're like a dog who can't even find his balls.

You miss the point. How much do I give to African relief? Nothing - but I don't ask other people for money, either. And I do give money & time to other causes as well. But I also don't try to "convert" people in Africa, either.
I don't live in extravegance (trust me) while others suffer. Is it just the Catholic Church who seems indifferent? No. I was responding to the Time cover.
And relating radical Islam to Islam is like saying fundemental Christianianity is the same as the Catholic Church - which I'm not.
You're damn right I hate "the" Church, because it is a man-made institution and is subject to all the errors and biases humans are subject to. Which is a huge topic for another time.
Dude, you took what I said and twisted it to meet your already biased views. And I have no trouble finding my balls, thank you.
