Australia has nearly five million Catholics and about 300 billion bogans. On Sunday, October 17, 2010, however, Australia had approximately 300,005,000,000 Catholics. Because, on that momentous day, a woman who has been dead for decades was appointed by the Catholic Church that excommunicated her as Australia’s very first Saint.
At first glance, the bogan may give the impression that it is quite the student of religion. It is capable of analysing the Qu’ran, it has an extensive collection of Buddhist iconography in its home, and it has enjoyed a brief period of purchasing from the merchandising juggernaut that is the Hillsong Church. To scratch the surface of this claim, however, is to uncover pure, 24 carat bullshit. The bogan has little genuine interest in things religious beyond the prospect of receiving the occasional solicited miracle, and the capacity to take solace from the idea that, come the bitter end, it can merely apologise profusely to a conceptual entity it paid scant attention to for decades. Consequently, its time as a recidivist reprobate will be forgiven, and paradise awaits, with no effort or sacrifice required. But faced with the prospect of simultaneously supporting a 19th century nun and Australia’s clear superiority over the rest of the world, the bogan giddily embraces an excuse to don its flag cape three months out from Australia Day.
A belief in miracles dovetails neatly with the bogan’s core existential belief. The belief that it will, despite having no redeeming features or particular talents, be offered, unsolicited, a spot on X Factor Australia, to be fawned over by the unholy triumvirate of Imbruglia, Keating and Sandilands. Much like bogan theologian Dan Brown, the work of popes John Paul II and Benedict XVI exhibits an increasingly sophisticated knowledge of how to run a PR campaign to charm the bogan. During his papacy, John Paul II canonised more saints than the the combined efforts of centuries of popes before him, rocking along at a clip of 3.5 new saints per year. Benedict XVI has utilised German efficiency to achieve an unprecedented velocity of 6.8 saints per year, satisfying the needs of the bogan and its international brethren for constant media events, arbitrary miracles, victory dances, and hoopla.
Years of watching Today Tonight and A Current Affair had left the bogan haplessly addicted to that deep, resonating comfort that only comes from being told exactly what to think. While not coming in neat 30-minute capsules at dinner time on weeknights, Catholicism, to the bogan, offers the same direction and guidance as Tracy Grimshaw and Matthew White combined. Most important, though, is that after being canonised, Mary MacKillop is now max celeb, with a galaxy of merchandise options. The bogan is surely only a step behind, having spent all winter doing hammer curls, trying to get ‘cannonised’. Conditioned from years of mimicking celebrity behaviour, the bogan will briefly find abstinence and abstemiousness cool. Until it is horny or thirsty.
Then, come next Sunday, faced with the prospect of rising early to attend mass for what now seems like hair of the dog, and with the kneeling and rising, and the good behaviour, and the newly-found inability to make paedophile jokes, the bogan hits snooze, and rolls over.
saint macca? which pretend newspaper is that from?

Mary of the Cross – sydney gets a saint even though born in melb and did fine work in sa
Well, she couldn’t have been Saint Mary of Collingwood now, could she?
Oi. I said ‘catholicism’ in the full list and it got deleted. Or was it because I accompanied it with something gross? Hmmm.
Catholic, school girls rule, Catholic school girls ruuule!
Well they don’t rule, but they were more fun than my public school peers.
not just any Catholic schools rule martin, NAUGHTY Catholic school girls rule!
Yes!
I think I’ll have to become a Catholic. There’s not much point in thinking anyway.
Catholic school girls are the best lovers. Know why? Because if we’re going to get punished when we die, we’re sure as hell going to have a good time!
I thought it was because the clergy had taught them from an early age.
ditto for the boys?
We had lesbian nuns with hairy legs & cats bum mouths, who taught us that anybody who has sex before marriage is a filthy slut & will burn in hell forever.
They should be Sainted!
An appropriate punishment! Sex is the worst thing in the whole world!
Our bible bashers who came in once a month told us the Muslims were going to take over the world. They were very adamant and stern about that. That was nearly 20 years ago. I guess they hadn’t heard of China.
Oh and it wasn’t about kiddy fiddling or anything sexual either.
Apparently there is a telemovie… that was fast…. is Lisa McCune in it?
how are the going to fit in the required explosions and tits?
I hear those women in veils hide explosives underneath their long dresses.
is this how we can work the tits into the telemovie? the need to prove there are no hidden explosives – instead there’s the body of a victoria’s secret model.
That’s only the Muslim ones. Mary’s on our side, so maybe she can keep some bomb disposal equipment under hers.
Yes, Mary Mac will have to place anything that looks suspiciously explosive into her knickers, just near her Secret Je$us Spot. Her miracle Vag will absorb and diffuse the explosive powers contained within the suspicious looking item. With nothing more than a saintly smile and slight aura, she will continue on her way.
…. with a very satisfied smile, knowing that the earth did, in fact, move for her.
Lisa McCune is already the patron saint of australian bogue TV. You can’t be canonised more than once.
This is also embodied in the bogan’s love for mafia movies and games about criminals like the grand theft auto series.
In 1993 I used to have a dope plant called Mary McKillop, It grew on my lounge room windowsill. We would kneel down and pray to it frequently. The miracle would have been if it had ever matured, I was partial to sampling, a lot. It never did mature. I wrote that McKillop bitch off as a fraud shortly thereafter.
I feel like a large component of the bogan’s interest in saint macca comes from the desperate, misguided jingoism that informs Grimshaw’s overuse of the collective possessive adjective “Our”. So terrified is the aus-bogue of our relative cultural insignificance that we need to desperately assume ownership of anybody who has done anything internationally conspicuous, regardless of its fairly dubious worth or even veracity. It’s sad when the Commonwealth Games are over and we can no longer bemoan the substandard living conditions provided for Our athletes, but now we can prattle on about Our Mary, who according to a bogue on ACA last night embodied virtues with which “all australians can resonate”. I’m resonating!!
Indeed. You may have noticed the cover of today’s Herald Sun spruiking ‘Our Saint Mary’. She is now, unfortunately, the patron saint of bogans. TBL
‘ Mary of the Southern Cross ‘ was the heading in one of the Sydney rags
I am now picturing lots of lapsed boagn catholics (is there any other kind?) having Marys visage tattooed in relief against their Southern Cross swastikas.
*bogan oops
I’ve performed a few miracles in my time. Where’s my f*cking sainthood, Ratzinger? Schnell schell!
I love that they are calling on her being the Patron Saint for the Abused. Hey Catholics, how about just stopping the abuse? Then you wont need a f#cking Saint to help….
‘Mary of (Kings) Cross’? ‘Mary of the Aussie Swazzie’?
Just when I thought I’d be able to make a joke about vendors of negotiable affection, you come along a scant half an hour earlier, damn you!
Oh well, great minds, Pinky, great minds. I don’t begrudge you your quip.
Hi Sten!
*takes bow*
Hi Pinky, how are you? Hope you’re well.
Hey ya Sten
I’m okay. We all know that the topic of Religion will bring out! LOLz
How are you buddy? I was in Sydney a few weeks back and thought of you…LOLz
Hey Pinkster,
Looking forward to your bio my friend. Stay well.
I’m not too bad, thanks for asking, Pinky. A bit frustrated about being unemployed and on the dole, but I’m doing all I can, so I suppose I’ll just have to grin and bear it. Kind of you to think of me when you were in town… was it by any chance along the lines of “Poor Sten, how can he live in this dump?”
Ah, yes. Of course, the bogan, knowing full well that a miracle may bestow deserved largesse for no effort, encourages sainthood. Yet the bogan’s regular attendance at church, supporting the faith, helping the poor and disenfranchised, is lacking….
Of course, religious fervour hits its peak at the Grand Final. INterestingly, Australia’s participation in the Commonwealth games has been less than enthusiastically received…
Speaking of the Games you have to look at the bright side of it all – 8000 Australians gathered for the canonisation and did not throw a washing machine out of the window.
Bloody miracle.
>Benedict XVI has utilised German efficiency to achieve an unprecedented velocity of 6.8 saints per year
Given that they need 2 confirmed miracles, that’s about 14 miracles per year being uncovered, quite remarkable really.
Miracles are easier to come by these days. If you watch TT/ACA there will be at least one story a week about a ‘miracle cure’ or some such rot.
!4 miracles a year is a walk in the park.
Or miracle weight-loss tips. Informercials masquerading as current affairs… truly I weep for humanity.
However I read this morning that a cure for the common cold could be near at hand – fantastic if true!
I’m guessing the Vatican uses TT/ACA as it’s source for miracles across the world.
It’s downright miraculous I tell ya!
Yet for all the miracles curing cancer (it’s always cancer), I can’t find a single one where God heals an amputee…
‘Consequently, its time as a recidivist reprobate will be forgiven, and paradise awaits, with no effort or sacrifice required.’
Agree TBL, how many times have you heard a bogan say, “I know that because I’m a good person and that and and I’m nice to other people, so I don’t need to go to church to get to heaven.”
This just further highlights the bogans lack of understanding that being a true Christian is more than just going to church for an hour every Sunday.
That’s because being a Bogan means you will never have understanding. Except about when to glass a c*nt.
Pilgrims cry: ‘Mary, Mary, Mary, oi, oi, oi’ – from today’s Herald Sun. And now we can come out from the rock we have crawled under to cringe in our country’s glory.
“Australia has nearly five million Catholics and about 300 billion bogans. On Sunday, October 17, 2010, however, Australia had approximately 300,005,000,000 Catholics”.
Does this mean Catholics are not bogan? Or is the math doing my head in?
I had been to Mary McKillop’s Place when I first came here. Its quite peaceful, can’t imagine a stampede of profane bogues there.
I think by adding the two numbers they are saying that previously, catholicism lacked the brand cache and popular culture credibility to be adopted by the bogan, but in the wake of this latest sainthood development the bogan has, like all bandwagons that came before it, wholeheartedly jumped on board.
In summary, prior to this event, catholics weren’t bogans, but post the event, bogans are all catholic.
Yes that’s what is suggested to me, that the 5 million adherents before the canonisation are not bogans. Which seems a bit dubious.
This is similar how all bogans become Irish on St Patrick’s Day.
“Bogan theologian”.
Snicker.
God Bless you “Our Mary”
I just realised that back in our Ned Kelly production we forgot to include Mary Mac. They were both around in Victoria at the same time. I’ve no doubt they would have dated. They may have been the Cartwright – Hewitt’s of the 1870′s. Ned would have given it to her. Farkin legend.
i’d forgotten our production. better go back and read it over to find an appropriate slot for saint macca.
i’ve found the role for her – she can be working amongst the seedy pantaloon strippers, trying to reform them, and meet ned there.
Sorry, I was raised pagan. So “cannonisation”. They dig her remains up and the Pope fires them out of a cannon, right?
Ha ha ha… reminds me of an apt joke.
Q: What’s the difference between The Queen and a Nun?
A: When the QUeen has a baby, there’s a 21-gun salute. When a Nun has a baby, they fire the dirty old canon.
But what you propose wouldn’t be that strange. There was one Pope who was so bothered by his immediate predecessor that he had the corpse dug up, but on trial, dismembered then thrown in the river.
I just can’t be bothered to look up which Popes were involved, though I seem to remember this all took place about 800 or 900 AD.
I had to look that one up on wikipedida.
The Cadavar Synod! Some Pope called Stephen did inded go & dig up the last guy to wear the hat, Formosus, for a ‘posthumous ecclesiastical trial’.
Funnily enough, after dumping the corspse in the Tiber it washed up on shore, supposidly preformed some miracles which then got Stephen improsoned & stripped of Popedom.
I wonder if praying to Saint Macca will ensure similar services to the bogans enemies?
Yeah, it was a pretty bizarre episode to be sure, Missy – but apparently not an isolated incident back then. Hell, even I’ve had fantasies revolving digging up people like Augusto Pinochet and drinking beer out of his skull, sort of as a retribution he or his ilk never had to face otherwise.
Maybe. I still want to see Ratzy fire her mortal remains out of a Howitzer. I’d even go to church to watch that.
Absolutely. I’d say a Hail Mary to see that.
… while he’s dressed in his Hitler Youth outfit….
Perhaps a step too far there, chris. Don’t mention ze var!
Too true. I crossed the line there. He can just stick to the regular white ball gown, pointy hat and red Prada pumps. Wouldn’t want the whole thing to get silly.
Any more than it already is, at any rate.
ha
called it.
surely the catholic church is the original harvester of bogan cash, and doubtless the best. rupert and the packer spawn must be green with envy.
constantine identifying the bogue phenomenon in 326 CE. took an obscure jewish sect, edited and spun it into history’s greatest cash cow. an example followed fervently by the likes of L. Ron Hubbard and the marketeers of the power balance band et al.
Religon is a tumor and a balm to the ignorant and weak minded. even modern christians who decry the ills and contradictions of the Universal Church of Rome still follow its basic tenets and philosophies. History’s greatest con job.
more power to them all I say.
In fact lets get the whole bunch together – jews, christians, muslims, some place, maybe the plains of megiddo would be nice and central, for some sort of maxtreme battle to see which colour of the same god is most tops.
BOGANS! CHOOSE A SIDE NOW! TIME IS SHORT!

Chubby,
The caflics are the biggest fraud in the world asside from your inspiring comments just reflect on the countless misery they have caused in the world. They sent priests out to colonise the world and all these places that were happy all started to fillow caflicism and live in fear of god. They were given medcines and education and free food. The poor people then bred like flies so now we have basket case nations filled with teaming masses at masses because the caflics forbid birth control ! This is the most horendous sin . millions in misery for what? More boys for the priests is about the only benifit.
jesus
my worst common post ever.
I just hate religon passionately.
dickheads decry the same science which gives them their 3D TV as mere “theory” and then get all het up if some poor bint wants to spare another soul from poverty and abuse.
hang on , maybe it makes sense: 3D plasma is not science, it’s a miracle!
nah fuck it I got nothin’
It’s nice to know that in true jingoistic fashion they’ve totally omitted any reference to the other (non-Australian) five that were canonised over the weekend…this over the top Australian centric perspective the media has created is killing the world citizen in me…
Mentioning one new saint is too many.
I reckon this Valenzuela should be given honorary Australian citizenship and crowned the patron saint of the femme-bogue.
You Tarzan and ox in bed, Me Jane the second. Awesome.

Why do people pray to Mary MacKillop for help instead of God? I mean, isn’t God supposed to be worth about 50 Mary MacKillops?
And yes, I am aware that 50 X 0 is 0.
tbl, you’re in the news: http://www.smh.com.au/lifestyle/lifematters/how-to-spot-a-bogan-20101018-16qdz.html
The comments section has some great examples of people in bogan denial! And the usual representation of fools who didn’t read the article before jumping in to pontificate about mullets, flannos and utes…..
Some soul did say the article did no justice to TBL. Also does No 3 make Fiona a bogan?
The FB page has some tool called Dany Roy Boyd who has some dubious likes. And a link to a moron who complained about the non-delivery of chips he did not order.
Then we must keep up the fight. Ignorance is the enemy here.
I think you meant Ignance, which is what i would call my daughter if I had one.
Thought that was a big lizard.
Viv you should bring out The Big Book of Bogue Names complete with etymology and meaning. It will be the most sought after stocking filler evah.
viv, the name is to be spelt ignanz. you don’t want your daughter embarrassed by her incorrectly spelt name, do you?
I might go posh and call her Ignaarnz
if you have twin girls they can be ignaarnz and imber-sylle. b’narl could be their brother.
or should it be Imbasea’l ?
possibly. or maybe imbaseya’l.
PB, that is what I call the good work. Maybe you should change your name to P’Bee to celebrate.
consider it done.
For that extra touch of class, either a hyphen or apostrophe will do nicely … or why not both?
Ignarrnz-Iz’Blysse?
It’s-alwayz obvious as soon as someone else says it!
That article explains the latest influx of NABs coming over to the FB page and squeezing out steaming piles of Old School Bogan cliches all over the place. I guess all the TBL FB Team can do is keep rubbing their noses in it until they learn to leave their deposits elsewhere.
Why do people pray to Mary McKillop for help instead of God? theologically correct answer is that they pray to Mary to intercede on their behalf:
Mary McK: Hey God, remember that Jaydenn guy I was telling you about?
G: Of course I do. I know you’re new here, but in future remember I’m omniscient- remind me, sis.
M: the one who’s been praying to me to fix the HDMI socket on the back of his 106cm plasma screen- tripped over the cable while staggering off to take a leak at half-time during the AFL grand final.
G: yeah- tell him to get a new cable- it’s the cable that’s damaged, not the socket. When he thinks about the repair bill he’s saved, he’ll convince himself he’s been on the receiving end of a miracle.
M: good thinking, boss.
The real reason is that while people like to have their universe-creating supernatural entity, they still want some special, personal connection with it. Christianity ran into this problem in the early days when it supplanted the numerous regional- or locally-based deities of the Greeks and Romans with a single but very abstract God, a vaguely tangible Christ, and a wholly unfathomable holy spirit. So Saints were devised, to give the adherents a replacement tangible local connection.
Totally agree. Imagine my Mum has cancer. Do I pray to God? To Jesus? To the Virgin Mary?
Of course not – I’m not an idiot who believes in prayer and miracles…
But if I was an idiot, I’m surely not so stupid as to pray to some random chick who’s not even a saint yet when there’s all these other awesome “people” out there who either a) actually are, you know, God, or b) are likely to be closer to God and more able to get in his ear about curing me Mum’s cancer.
Mary’s canonization may well be spiritual kickstart that ushers in a new age of enlightment and a return too Christian values that this nation so desperatley needs-one can only pray.
Brad ,
Since when did cafolisism have anything to do with Christianity ? They worship as gods those that are not god, they worship craven immages and they are against population controll , the one thing that may actually save humanity.
The more christian soldiers there are the more able we are in doing the Lords good work,and all christians no matter what deomination have a duty too stand together in solidarity against those that would seek too destroy us.
Good luck with that. Can I do the Lord’s other work – the smiting, pox giving etc? He must need a sidekick, just for company, if Christians are doing all of his good work, he must get pretty lonely doing the rest.
I’ve got some locusts Viv, if you want a hand with creating a plague…
Calm down, you’re only the biggest religion in the world. What we really need is more Grammar soldiers, standing together in solidarity against those that would seek TO destroy us.
Ha!
An interesting point that you raise willis,i think brother James could well be our 1st Grammer saint and sister Vivsection can ordain you as our ist grammer preist.
Mother Vivisection, thank you very much.
Looks like we also need a Spelling Cardinal. And a Punctuation Pontiff. I’d throw my mitre into the ring, but since I’m an atheist (albeit one who can peacefully coexist with theists) I don’t actually have one.

brad you should roll your eyes when you say that.
and shouldn’t the correct spelling be Ygnanz?
I’m struggling to think of things more incongruous than Catholic Saintz for the bogue to appropriate…

Yeh, stuff Mary where are our Bio’s?
A lame catholic joke.
2 priests on the Titanic as it is sinking are preparing to abandon ship. One turns to the other and says “do you think we should grab a buoy”. The other replies “oooo do we have time for that”.
Boom tish
More bio’s or I will bring out another joke. You have been warned.
We made a porn movie with Jesus and Tunnel Kunt friday. Should we do one with Mary or is that just too low. What do you think Viv?
Mother Mary McTunnelkunt, who could be offended?
mary’s already been suggested for inclusion in underkelly. we need to finish her part in that.
two nuns in the blackout,one says “where’s the candle” and the others reply “Oooh yes dont it”
3 nuns waiting at the train station, a flasher whips out his cock, one nun had a heart attack, one nun had a dizzy spell, the other had a stroke! boom tish!
A nun asks a little girl what she wants to be when she grows up,
“A prostitute.” replies the girl and the nun passes out with shock. When she comes around, she asks the girl to repeat her answer.
“A prostitute.” replies the girl again.
“Oh, thank goodness for that!” said the nun, “I thought you said ‘Protestant’”.
A nun gets on a bus thats empty except for the driver.She says”im going to die soon but i want to have sex before i do but i must remain a virginsoit must be anal and i cant commit adultery so the man must be single,can you fulfil my wish?Yes says the driver and promptly does just that.Then feeling guilty he says,”im sorryi lied,im married with 3 kids”
“Thats ok” says the nun,”i lied too.My name is Kevin and im going to a fancy dress party”
Bio’s done, Si. Whacked it onto Friday’s BoB.
Signing off now for the next week. Aloha.
Certainly not me.

now, here’s a thing…
saint macca got the gong for curing cancer right?
spontaneous remission – miracle.
but since no one knows what it is that triggers a bunch of cells to go boonta and suddenly start multiplying out of control in the first place, wouldn’t that make getting cancer a bit of a miracle too?
why is no-one lobbying for phillip morris to get the nod?
Saint Peter Stuyvesant.
patron saint of phlegm.
Superb! TBL

Not soon enough
I’ve been to Bathurst with the bogans; you don’t diss Brock.
*glass*
So have I; way, way back when the hill was pure old-school bogue. Sorry, but Brocky is the Patron Saint of bogan petrolheads. .
…slowly staggers away from glassing while humming The Eulogy Song…..
Chubby,
one of the mysteries of the caflics is the nuns always going around in pairs.
My dad explained it to me
“One nun goes to see that the other nun gets none”
Oh James Hunter, in the history of the birth control debate, without doubt you are the most compelling piece of evidence against.
I still can’t believe the kracken named her Saint Macca. What the f*ck.
Saint Macca? Are you fucking serious? How the hell does News Ltd. have any credibility whatsoever?
I’ve been overseas for about 8 months now, and finding out about shit like this really makes me want to never return to Oz.
I’d say these days it’s a miracle if you make it to your 70s without getting some form of cancer.
Getting cancer is a miracle. The miracle being you get cancer on a daily basis and it rarely gets past the 2-3 cells stage. The world is complex enough without theists making shit up.
As for the whys and wherefores of cells ‘going boonta’ (glorious terminology), I’m pretty sure we have a good idea.
I don’t know what yooz are on about. Religion is fully good coz you get to do shit and then ask god for fogiveness and then you can do it again.
That’s why its ok to break into cars and push old people over – you get forgiven coz of god and jesus and shit.
Weren’t you on ACA last night?
Breaking News: In the AFL, St Kilda Saints will now be known as the StKillop Mary’s. They will also be only team in the AFL whose No.1 ticket holder has been dead for the last 100 years; the Miraculous Mary of Moorabbin.
Her cannonisation is just further proof that she used up her two miracles curing cancer; if she hadn’t, St Kilda would have beaten Geelong and Collingwood in the ’09 & ’10 Grand Finals and been Premiers for the last two years!
still waiting on some bio’s.
don’t want to come back for summer school do we kids?

you don’t want your names on the notice board do you?
and where is damn Bag o Turnips?
write your damn bio you verbose mutherfocker!
Chubby,
I take it you looking for the “Stage” bio? not the real serious “real” one ?
The stage one I can do tonight but a real one … wow I would have to consult so many people to determine what in my percieved reality is actual reality.
Sorry chubs I don’t really want to do a bio, my life is boring. I like it though. Most of the time.
Ooh, chubby, I’m first on your list this time! I feel loved…
You forgot me yesterday (which is cool, I’m reasonably new and an infrequent poster, albeit avid reader, so I forgive you).
Anywho, my bio is about to go up on last Friday’s BoB page…
Wut wut wut bio???
Chubby… bio? What in blazes are you talking about, mate? Please bear in mind I haven’t been able to render unto TBL and it’s denizens the full attention it (and they) deserve, as I’m in the Gulag For The Jobless right now, and that chews up an inordinate amount of my time (ironically, it was so much easier to spend all day here when I had a job!).
Care to elaborate?
inspired by the tbl bios for the book. have a look down near the bottom of friday’s bachelor of bogan.
OK, done, have posted in Friday’s BBo.
I’ll leave you all to sort the fact from the fiction, if you work it out, could you please for the love of Xenu share this information with me?
staged of course.
if I wrote a real one I’d have interpol, asis, the mossad, the chamber of commerce and industry and the world ecumenical council on my ass!

The miracle that clinched the deal for Mary? Being the only virgin ever to live in Portland…
After glassing the
fair King Cnut, AntiPajero united the thrones of Goldmark and OzStranglYa. AntiPajero held this power-base together by seizing Princess Mary’s treasure chest and raiding her booty, leaving none in any doubt that she’s ours, and earning the esteem of the
Jonnobogue. AntiPajero noted, however, that because Our Mary had been seen
lying prone on so many surfaces, pounding her into a pulpy mess (whilst arguably good for the world) was no big deal. Accounts of his reign in the
FlattenYerBogue are punctuated with maxXxteme feats of
awesomeness on the surf . AntiPajero’s vaguely understood, but eminently powerful influence with the Jonnobogue was cemented after producing his sole legitimate progeny out of four,
Harthacnut.

Thank you.
you made my day.
I’m not ordained though, Chubby. But how could one love Devo or appreciate the fine work of Bruce Campell, or indeed, be such a work-shy hedonist as myself without having at least some knowledge of, and love for, the Church?
The Subgenius Must Have Slack!
My bio is now up on last Friday’s post…be gentle….
This sainting crap is a joke. When will religion just die off and let reason and logic prevail?
0h god. New favourite post. Ugh….I have never worshiped you more, TBL.
Saints alive, I literally had to steal one of my dad’s Valium tablets to deal with a sudden near-hysteria the other day that was brought about in great part by this ridiculousness. I don’t mean to imply I am in any way unstable…it was just *that* maddening. Really. Granted, I was having a terrible, terrible day to begin with, but really truly, this tripe that the trashmedia rapaciously *raped* me with was the *last*……*straw*, and threatened to drive me irreversibly up the WALL.
That traditional nun headwear is very confronting.
The writers of this may want to look up the definition of the word “excommunicated”
