Self-flagellation, papal-style


So Pope John Paul II would beat himself with a belt as an act of penitence, huh? And now he's on the path to sainthood?

Gotta love that Roman Catholicism. Gotta love that Christianity generally.

What a load of bullshit.

Which is not to say that John Paul was not a great man in many ways. For what I wrote about the late pontiff around the time of his death, see here, here, and here, back when this blog was a lot younger than it is now.
