@leiberfrasmilch "Most of the popes die penniless" Now that is funny! The popes die in charge of billions, no penniless. Your post will keep me laughing for awhile!

Surprise, surprise. More idiotic irrational prejudiced nonsensical incoherent Catholic bashing.

Love the top comment, btw. Perfect for a channel committed to being "rational."

[TheMexicanboxer]

go sell everything you have ......and give it to the poor (mark 10:21) and look what the pope wears

[KevZen2000]

The Catholic Church, that has more money then some countries, its complaining about Materialism, looks just as rational, as the superstition of Statism, an.religion.

@1977Melville It was the man himself, Stefan Molyneux! Google it, 'Against the Gods', but never pay for it in electronic format! Stefan lists it for free on his site, and for a small fee in paper format. Great fun read. The irony of it is that the bible isn't free and this can almost be considered the "Atheist's Bible" if there was such a thing. Of course Molyneux would hate that title of course, but I can't get over that fact. Atheistic scripture = free, bible = premium.

it may be hypocritical coming from him, but I do agree with the sentiment.

@Killedkennyagain Also, I have taken no 'pot shots' at the church. All my claims are well founded and verifiable.

@leiberfrasmilch I have no problem with the church having its wealth, and no desire to take it from them, nor have I claimed to in my previous comments. Atrocities are acts committed by men and organizations, they exist, or have taken place. Therefore, they are not created only in the minds of men, if they were they would be concepts (like God) and concepts do not exist. When have I claimed to be materialistic? Why do you consider it bad? When you respond try not to assume you know who I am.
