I also take offence when those in the higher echelons of organised religions like catholicism are held up as "speaking for all 6m catholics in the UK" or whatever. Do they? Do all catholics genuinely agree 100% with the views espoused by their designated mouthpiece? I doubt it.

I live in a secular country, where we have a hereditary system of monarchy in which I have no say. Does this mean that the Queen speaks for me? Do I share her views? No. So how does the pope represent the views of all catholics?

And what was that in the Bible about? Ah yes, I remember now: "It is easier for a camel to pass through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter the Kingdom of Heaven." Well, that's the Pope fucked then, and all those associated with the Vatican. And I was brought up a Catholic, so no bias.
A non-practising TE.

I'm guessing that the pope doesn't speak on your behalf then TE?

Was that a complete guess, or just a hunch? (;>D)
Methinks religion is generally about controlling a large number of people by installing a fear of God, literally, into them. A do as I say, not as I do arrangement.
The list of illegal wrongdoings by so-called religious leaders of all faiths is endless. Hypocrites the lot of 'em.
Here's me heading for eternal damnation,
