Ignorance is bliss, but please keep it to yourself.

There are countless folk who revel in their stupidity and fantasy. They cling to falsehoods like Titanic passengers to life rafts. The pope and his catholic minions are just one such example, but an oh-so-fabulous one they are. I would usually forgo writing about this perverted leader of NAMBLA* when he is speaking to a foreign country but this latest visit of his requires comment.

I'm sure you've heard that he has been on a visit to Africa, probably because it has a NAMBLA population second only to Rome? This is a continent working desperately to solve, or greatly reduce, it's AIDS problem. This portion of the planet is aswim in violence against every one by every one; tyrannical leaders are killing citizens, tribes of natives are killing tribes of natives, men are brutally raping women, and on and on it goes. So this Leader of all Pedophiles is telling the Africans not to use condoms and not to have sex. Because this is what will solve all of Africa's ills.

I'm sure he thinks that all those studies that show reductions in HIV infections when condoms are used and safer sex practices are instituted are nothing short of balderdash. I'm mean, look how well abstinence has worked for his band of happy, sexless men. Not a sign of sexual digression to be seen for miles and miles. His NAMBLA-ites are a bastion of sinlessness and purity.

Fantasy can be fun and nice, even for adults. But it's not a lifestyle you engage in perpetually. Most mature human beings will tell you that while ignorance can be bliss, education is more so. Sometimes is best to grow up and face reality. It's about time the pope got rid of his party dress and party hat and chose more grown-up clothes. And embraced truth.
