Heresy! God gave man a brain and free will, only by allowing him the tool of doubt will he see the truth of God. To ad to this copy and paste from the other Pope; who is God's chief messenger to play God anyway? Read and Write what you wish, what do I care. I agree with Pain and Jefferson fear no truth and Reason is the best weapon against erronius statements. Gölök ZLF Buday "As you have the power, sir, to do some service to letters, I implore you not to clip the wings of our writers so closely, nor turn into barndoor fowls those who, allowed a start, might become eagles; reasonable liberty permits the mind to soar--slavery makes it creep." -- Voltaire [A Letter To A First Commissioner]  -- Soon To Be, Mayor Gölök ZLF Buday, in freedom loving dreams., Vancouver, GVRD(Paine Cnty), BC(SU), US of Eh!(USoA)
The pope should censor himself.  -- Joe, Rochester, MI
