Who in their right mind would take sex education instruction from an 80 year old virgin? Maybe the don't need condoms in the catholic church anyway, it isn't like the bishops are going to get the choir boys pregnant.

I worship nothing. But when the good ol' census comes along, I put down Jewish-Taoist-Hindu-Toltec-Buddhist-Iconoclast-Skeptic as my religion.

If there's any validity to the story of the virgin birth of Christ you never can tell what might happen to a choir boy. Perhaps that's why they keep trying.

Why in the hell would anyone do that? Nationalism is a bigoted position and the leaders are all a bunch of corrupt douch bags anyway.

For that matter, it could be stated that any form of worship is bigotry, in that it requires one to set up something as an ideal, and then denigrate anyone who does not follow suit.

If you use something it doesn't mean you worship it. I use my toilet each morning.

I don't worship anything. I'm just looking for the meaning of life. I find love in meaning.
I'm always searching for meaning and when I find truth as I perceive it, it feels ecstatic like love I guess. So, in a sense, I guess I obey the laws of truth and in some way it could be perceived as worship. Although, I am not very obedient and will call out BS when I see it. I am probably wrong many times but my theory is that if I follow my gut/heart/mind, I will be right more times than not so I'm willing to take a hit for the errors. It would be much more erroneous to abide by someone else's perception of all knowing truth since I realize my own is faulty. There is error everywhere but if it works more than not and it doesn't hurt anyone, go with it.

Myself, I burn incense and wail a hymn each night in reverence.
