LUANDA, Angola – Tens of thousands of Angola's Catholics lined the streets of the capital Saturday for a blessing from Pope Benedict XVI, who urged the country's faithful to reach out and convert people who believe in witchcraft.
But a stampede at a stadium before one of the pope's speeches left two people dead and others injured.
"The pope is very upset," a Vatican spokesman.
I suppose that people who believe that witchcraft has some sort of power are prime candidates to convert to Catholicism. They have a built in crazy, so it doesn't take much of a leap to join the Catholics.
Everywhere the Catholics go.. everything they do.. results in people dying. It's no wonder the Pope is doing a tour of the third world. Everywhere else, where people aren't superstitious and ignorant, people are wising up to the evil of the religion and abandoning it.
To top it off, it's all about money and power. The Catholic religion has nothing to do with Christ or religion. It's all about a bunch of assholes ripping people off, and advocating policy that kills other human beings.
I giggle when people get trampled during a haji (or whatever the fuck the crazy muslims call their stupid pilgrimage to Mecca), and it's funny when stupid people go nuts and trample other crazy people when the pope makes an appearance.
I'm probably going to hell for finding that amusing.
