All religions and cults are batshit. What about King Charles hiding behind a screen during his coronation getting his dose of coronation oil? Imagine believing he is God's representative on Earth man. What's been highlighted here is more to do with media than the religion anyway, the concept of conclave is on the rational side of things, relatively. Catholics believe they drink Jesus's blood and actually eat his flesh on a weekly basis. This isn't a  metaphorical to many, it's a literal belief (to my relatives at each). Batshit doesn't cover it

An update. I feel so fortunate. Back at home with the family, had a very long and frank discussion with Mrs Rents. She'll continue supporting me as long as I don't drink, which is obviously fair enoug

Had a couple a nights away in Keswick, got back yesterday morning. As is often the case I usually wake up at daft o’clock when I’m not at home in my own bed. Preoccupied with thoughts of today’s match

Last night I was sitting in the lounge minding my own business after the kids were put to bed.  I had the big light on.  Wor lass walked into the room and turned the big light off, fuck knows why.   S

The best before date must have finally expired, surely?

I was talking about this at the weekend with my lass and we agreed that the "democracy" of the conclave is good in principle but they probably spoil it by saying they pray for guidance and the decision is God's will. 

 

I still think transubstantiation is the most batshit belief across any religion - including the nonsense in Scientology.

Whilst in Italy recently, we went to a couple of Cathedrals and other places.  Some of the artwork and artifacts were early C14th.  I find it quite mind blowing some of the stuff I was seeing.  The religious art is mad.  The yanks were all wanking over it and crossing themselves too :lol:

It certainly has its roots in the human sacrifice rituals of other civilisations - it fits in with JC's own supposed "sacrifice" for us. 

 

(That's in reply to Renton's canniibal post not religious art)

When we were in Normandy with the kids, we came across the Basilica of Saint Therese of Lisieux, massive Cathedral started in 1929, finished in 1954, with some mild bombing* in between.

Definitely worth a visit if you’re in the area- the pairings and murals inside are fucking mad, in fact, I’d recommend dropping a tab before you go, it’s the only way to explain this depiction of the Middle Eastern lad Jesus

* you can go up the outside of the dome, and on the top path there’s an in situ shell from ww2, stuck in the pathway, which, of course,didn’t go off and was a miracle.

So I am currently working my notice.  I asked if I could finish tomorrow, but got told 'we have a few bits on you could help us with so can you do the week after'  so I agreed.

Was on holiday last week, came back into work on Tuesday.  I had half a morning to get through my emails I had from my holiday.  About 9ish we have a resource meeting.  I told main gaffers I have to clear a few bits but I am ready for the jobs they want me on.   I am still waiting for these jobs and have spent since 12pm on Tuesday twiddling my thumbs :lol: 

 

These jobs they want me on, are more than a weeks worth of work so I don't see the point in me starting them as I wont finish them.  So I am sat here with fuck all to do bored shitless. BUT I am getting paid I suppose :lol:
