But y'all just go on worshipping the Honkin' Great Big Three-Tiered Hat. Ain't no skin off my back, if y'all wanna worship a guy wearing a multi-leveled Confectionary Cake on his head. ~~ BTW, that's just childish, and detracts from both your Christian witness and your argument. Keep it on the playground where it belongs.

Hold on, now... you're prostrating yourselves before some guy who's walking around wearing a big white parking-garage on his head, and you're calling me "childish"?

Sorry, this is still the Land of Free Speech. If the Muslims don't like the portrayal of Muhammed in an Editorial Cartoon, they can go pound sand -- and yes, I am still allowed, by the First Amendment, to point out the fact that the Pope's get-up is silly-looking.

Because, after all... the Pope's get-up is silly-looking. Hey, it happens; The Hindu conception of Cosmology is pretty darn aesthetically-absurd, also. I mean, really -- four elephants on the back of a honkin' big turtle? Terry Pratchett would never have made a fortune off his DiscWorld Novels if it weren't absurd.

Likewise... the Pope's get-up is silly-looking. Sorry. It's true.

These things happen.

Best, OP

It's not just childish, it's a lie. The pope isn't worshipped.

If all else fails and you find you cannot argue your point, make ridiculous personal attacks. Apparently, you are discovering that you can't defend the Protestant tradition of Bible alone, one that moves people AWAY from the Word of God - and condemned by Christ in Mark 7...

Actually, I don't think the last 3 Popes have worn the Triple-Crown. John Paul II refused it purposely, from what I understand.
