FAITH INSULTED
Apologies for infrequent posting, but I’ve been caught up in Anglican rioting:
The Vatican has described the Protestant and Orthodox faiths as “not proper Churches” in a document issued with the full authority of the Pope.
Anglican leaders reacted with dismay, accusing the Roman Catholic Church of paradoxical behaviour. They said that the new 16-page document outling the “defects” of non-Catholic churches constituted a major obstacle to ecumenism.
By “caught up in”, of course, I mean leading. So far we’ve torched four Catholic schools, an effigy of Archbishop Daniel Mannix, and a Sopranos DVD. The Orthodoxers briefly captured Peter Costello, but had to let him go when they found out he was some kind of Baptist.
UPDATE. Sectarian violence erupts in comments. I’ll fix this by installing MickBlock™.
