I love the double standard from the NSS - National Secular Society. They're planning widespread protests for when the Pope visits the country, trying to get everyone with an axe to grind to come together in vocal opposition to the Pontiff and bemoaning the estimated cost to the taxpayer of the visit, saying the Church should pay. But, my dear secularists, isn't a large chunk of that cost going to be attributable to dealing with the baying mobs of anti-catholics that you are organising? Is the NSS offering to pay for part of the policing costs?

Great question.
Thanks. I think I know the answer. In any case, if the Pope's got any sense, he bring a few of his Swiss Guards along for the ride, for the inevitable moment when Peter Tatchell tries to arrest him for hate crimes.
No strangers to hypocrisy, these people. The good thing is that the backlash has begun from non-religious people.
That's a good point, dude.
Why organise a baying mod when one hitman would suffice?
Cisbio, you don't surprise me. You recognise no doubt that an atheist is the most radical protestant?
I was only joking about the hitman; the Pope is way down my list.
'most radical protestant'? -nice try; quite pithy. An aphorism aimed at Anglicans, rather than atheists, methinks.
You want radical protestants? Have a butchers. Lovely folk.
