While in New York, the Pope addressed a Seminary in Yonkers and said:[photopress:ratzinger_nazi_youth.jpg,full,alignright] &#8220;My own years as a teenager were marred by a sinister regime that thought it had all the answers.&#8221; It turns out [...]]]></description>

We have just had yet another example of how religions try to enforce their narrow world views on others when a Christian radio station got its panties in a bunch over some schoolkids dressing up.

And, sadly, this looks like it&#8217;s not an isolated case. It&#8217;s time people were held fully responsible for their strange, and sometimes dangerous, [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The announcement by a Vatican official of &#8216;new&#8217; mortal sins is further proof of religion&#8217;s man-made origins. It also shows that, whenever the Roman Catholic church tries to be hip, it reveals itself as painfully out-of-date. Speaking in an interview with the Vatican daily newspaper, L&#8217;Osservatore Romano, Monsignor Gianfranco Girotti listed among the new breed of [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The resurrected controversy about the alleged Lost Tomb of Jesus raises an interesting paradox: are Christians better served by a mythological Jesus? Might discoveries about the real existence of Jesus undermine their faith? In spite of a high-profile documentary (which some regard as close to fiction), most experts remain highly sceptical about the so-called Lost [...]]]></description>

The answer is, good marketing. First, it&#8217;s important to understand that there&#8217;s a problem with the whole &#8216;Jesus as messiah&#8217; story.
