For many hundreds of years, priests and their like were always the richest landowners who often were also the judge of their areas -
Mostly, these people were drunken sods spending most of their time fucking the local poor population (Any resemblance to modern-day webmasters?)
These people were also instrumental in how the bible got to it's present form.
It is a fact that the Catholic church has many original writings - All of which they refuse to show.
Most of the present day miracles, and nearly all the old ones (shroud of turin etc.) have dubious claims.
Several years ago, the Vatican was ripped off for several millions of dollars - But they never noticed - The amount was insignificant to the amount sitting in their accounts.
Always - The church relies on the poor providing the money for new churches, when the biggest landowners and the largest bank account holders are one and he same - The church.
Many wars have taken place because of the church -
I do not believe in the bible - I do not believe in the church -
Do I believe in there being a higher presence? I am only 50 - Not quite old enough to answer that one yet.
