Liberals and their Blacklists...Protties and their Simony...
One thing that really bugs Liberals is how the Church is all about money! Money! Money! Money! It is a cryin' shame: you go to Latin America and there is all this poverty, and the churches have so much gold!
Of course this is a really disgusting mindset, one of the most niggardly of the broader umbrella of neo-puritanism: to deny poor people beauty, in the name of concern for their material well-being.
But it is one that is trotted out by many dissenters and ex-Catholics, and it is one that has distinguished Protestantism since day one.
Those Catholics sell sacraments!
Well, when was the last time you went to a mass that charged $12 in advance and $15 at the door? Of course, it is not like the Techno Cosmic Mass is that regular or anything. I guess aging boomers really are as stingy as they are often accused of being.
