Monstrous? 2

According to the Catholic Church, Britains first hybrid embryos are “monstrous”.

There are many things I’d consider monstrous. Some notable examples include:

  • Preaching against the condoms in Africa used for preventing the spread of HIV.
  • Maintaining dogmatic stances on family planning that result in large families and encourage generational poverty.
  • Collaborating with murderous fascists in the Second World War.
  • Seeking forgiveness from some dude who doesn’t exist for a multitude of hateful acts across the millennia (including the above collaboration) but not seeking the same from those who were wronged.
  • Fostering a culture of pointless guilt with the young, the impressionable, the stupid, the oppressed and the masochistic.

Catholic Church, get your priorities right.

Photos from our trip to Barcelona in November 05 can be found here. As always, photos of food and buildings tend to dominate the set.
