richard hitchings ,   methil   (01.18.06)

At one time it looked as if you were just a damned Jew-baiter. Now it appears you're a Catholic-basher as well.

Nobody expected or wanted John Paul 2 and John 23rd as popes. There were alot of negative comments about those two great popes. What makes you think that Benedict could not be like those men. You must give him a chance. Canadian

Your comments, as a i am sure you know are ignorant and ignore the Pope's family's opposition to Nazism, for which his father lost his business. You need to get a life........girlfriend..........or probably and what is more likely..........a boyfriend. Is your plan to wind people up with your BS because you are unsure about your sexuality.........?

As much as I agree with what you said with him bashing the pope, you had no right to start bashing another group (gays).
6. Hi!! NY
Richard hitchings ,   methil   (01.18.06)

Igot no particular Preferences but they all got bad bits to me.... the Catholics ... or Papes... as we call them here in Scotland have a particular bad record when it comes to anti semitism.... the Popes past record is no guide to his future actions... U guys just need to keep both eyes on the ball with regard to them
7. Popes Friend
Flashback ,   phoenix USA   (01.18.06)
Before becomming Pope He brought e. michel jones to the father land to teach. jones is a known anti-semite and wriiter. His Magizine Culture Wars has printed some very slanted and inflamatary statements filled with mixed truths and always up holds the Catholic Church as the only true church. beware of murder's in cleric clothes.
8. The Vatican needs to worry about the money it stole!!!.
MARK ,   USA   (01.18.06)
the Vatican sheltered Nazi war criminals in safe houses, provided escape routes or ratlines to South America, and used the Vatican Bank to launder Nazi funds. US State Department was requesting that the Vatican account for the looted gold and artifacts. Despite these requests from government and Holocaust victims, the Vatican Bank and Holy See still refuse to open their wartime archives.
9. Funny Ynet
J K ,   NYC, USA   (01.19.06)
The picture of Benedict on the Ynet homepage makes him look like an older Jor-El.

Yeah because when you bash gays the church might also be offended.
11. As a Catholic I'm proud of the Pope for speaking out.
Daisy ,   USA   (01.20.06)
He knows that Christianity came from Judism and all Christians even slackers like myself must defend our Jewish brothers and sisters.

18. 14. 13 - jews never forgive anyone-
DACON9 ,   ONLY AJEWISH ISRAEL   (01.22.06)
THE INQUISITION GOES ON EVERY DAY FROM YOUR CHURCH. EVERY DAY YOU PROSELYTIZE AND BRAINWASH JEWS, KILLING THEIR SOUL DESTROYING THEIR FAMILIES THROUGH CONVERSIONS. YOUR MYTHICAL MANGD WAS KICKED OUT OF THE JEWISH COMMUNITY FOR BEING A HERETIC ,AGAINST GD, THE JEWS TOLD 'HIM' TO GROW UP OR GET SHIPPED OUT. HIS MOTHER HAD JEUS AS A LOVE CHILD , WELL ACTUALLY SHE CHEATED ON HER HUSBAND AND JEUS WAS BANNED FROM MARRYING A JEW YOUR POOP HAS THE PROOF HIDDEN IN HIS VATICAN VAULTS , THE ORIGINAL ACCOUNT . BUT YOU CONTINUE TO WRITE MYTHS AS THE '5' VERSIONS OF YOUR BIBLE YOU GUYS CANT EVEN GET TOGETHER WHERE HE WALKED IN ISRAEL.EVERYTHING IS A FABRICATION. THEY NEVER WAS A LAST SUPPER EITHER. ALSO ANOTHER FABRICATION.
19. Why should we forgive? #14
MARK ,   United States   (01.22.06)
You are not sorry about your evil behavior. You need to repent !! Have you heard of that or are you even capable
20. 18
(01.22.06)
Not true. people want peace. we dont want to hurt ANYONE. we dont want Jews to be unfairly persecuted, nor do we want the Palestinians to be unfairly treated. it is about HUMAN RIGHTS.
21. 20. 18 RIGHTS? ACCORDING TO XTIANS JUDGMENT AGAIN?
DACON9   (01.22.06)
22. 600 years of Inquistions followed by Holocaust
Ever Remember   (01.22.06)
Vatican popes have tortured executed by burning on the stake thousands of people for 600 years (Daily Telegraph, today). Jews were on the top of the victims list followed by Muslims (mainly is Spain). They hated everything which was not "faithful Catholic" and STILL no matter how much they try to hide it. They were also delighted with the millions of Jews getting incinerated during WWII. People of Israel should search for their real enemy in the castles of Vatican and not in the alleys of West Bank where history shows that no such massacres were endured by Jews because of Muslims or Budhists.
23. Ever Remember (01.22.06)
DACON9 ,   RELY ON 'GD'   (01.23.06)
IT IS SO SAD THAT **YOU ARE COMPARING WHICH ATROCITY TO JEWS IS THE LESSER OF THE EVILS. THE VATICAN OR THE WEST BANK ALLEYS. NOW ITS A COUNTING GAME OF WHO KILLED ''LESS'' JEWS. FIRST IT SHOWS WHERE YOU'RE AT THEN IT SHOW WHERE THE JEWS ARE AT , TO CONTINUE TAKING THE ABUSE NOW FROM THE ARABS THEN FROM MY PRES BUSH AND REICH. JEWS SHOULD RELY ON 'GD' AS KING DAVID DID AND NOT THE MERCY OF THE PEOPLE
24. To #14
DR ,   Florida, USA   (01.24.06)
Jews should never have to forgive anyone. Let''s see how you react when six million of your people are killed??? I don't know who your people are, but you appear to side with palestinians now, so that says a lot about you.
25. yup with Post like this.... Ever Remember
richard hitchings ,   methil   (01.24.06)
Not only will the Catholics have you marked down for first in line for the bonfire... everybody else will too.... because all zios and probably non zio Jews... just whine about how Antisemetic everybody is to poor jews.
