Pope still peddling his BS then...… Hoping for a full collection plate this year.

I agree 100%, but I hope this post is not written by a follower of an other belief, or god forbid, by a follower of Paisley or TV preacher.

Please confirm.

Thank you.

As it happened..... Boris said he could cross the Thames river on foot.

He did - almost - but when he was within meters (yards?) of the other bank he lost his concentration, sank into the water and cried for help.

What was the head title in The Guardian?

Boris can not swim.

No you can't use that one. You don't have to leave anything behind when you make a footprint do you? ????

 

Except maybe a tourist attraction, like the footprint of Adam in Sri Lanka.

OK, I think I got the numbers, but which lottery is it?!!

Soooooo, someone realised that baby Jesus was going to become a world leader of religion, and saved a bit of wood from the place where he was laid 30 years or so before he became famous for his miracles because they thought it had magical powers, did they? How did they know which stable it was anyway? Must have been a lot of stables in the town. Did it have a plaque on it- "Jesus was born here"?

 

With <deleted> like this it's no wonder that people are leaving the church in droves.

There are so many pieces of the "true cross" the "crib" and all the other stuff from the middle ages ,you would need a bloomin forest . another fake religous relic 

 

All down to the marketing genius of that totally corrupt dishonest money making machine known as The Catholic Church where anything is available, including total forgiveness, for a price!

Haha, might as well give them a piece of Superman's cloak.

A good thing about living in the US back then was we were spared this.

Never heard Cliff Richard on the radio either.

And my mom never suggested I have a spotted dick.

I have an Opera House in Sydney for sale

 

Considering he was allegedly born among animals, I doubt the manger was furnished with a crib, I am sure the family did not bring their own crib with them on the trek.

Catholic smoke and mirrors and burning handbags

Oh dear, 

did you read the headline? Do you understand the difference between a manger and a crib?

Whether from crib ( my bad mistake) or the manger, considering the religion did not take hold until about a century after his crucifixion, I still have an Opera House for sale

They could have brought one of those back packs that you can use to carry small children.

Any carpenter could transform that into a crib.

Would that piece of wood still have DNA on it?

Would that DNA be 50% pigeon DNA?

 

"Darling, I am pregnant from a pigeon" - that beats any sick buffalo story.
