What are you laughing about? That's not funny. That's intended to be insulting about the Papacy. Should the Catholics put up some of the satire from the Betty Bowers website that insults Baptists? Sheesh!

Being Catholic, how did you know about the Betty Bowers site? Do you visit it often? So long as it's not racist or inflammatory, I can't think of any reason why you shouldn't post something from them - it's plain to see we all could use a good laugh. Just make sure the thread is plainly marked as SATIRE (see this very thread for an example), so that no one embarasses themselves and thinks Betty Bowers represents actual Baptist teaching.

Alex, you don't know about that website? It makes fun of everybody, Catholics included, and not in a nice way. I don't think you would find it too funny if I posted something from them.

The reason I know about it is because one of my daughters ran across it and was very insulted about how they mock all Christians. I wrote a complaint to them voicing my distaste for their mockery of Christianity. I guess they thought it was "funny" to send an e-mail back to me saying "Repent you doomed sinner or go to hell! I'm a better Christian than you are!"

Trust me.. it's a very inflammatory website.

Wait for my next series of threads titled "Baptists, Presbies, Methodists, Lutherans, associated fundies and other CULT members."

After all, it's satire, right?

No harm done, huh?
