The Catholic faith was set up purely for pedophilia.... and also other stuff.
It makes me wonder if the Bishop at my primary school (elementary) was a pedo?

Not a ridiculous claim buddy....
Do some research.
While today there are liberal clergy who preach a gospel of love, they ignore the bulk of Christian teachings, not to mention the bulk of Christian history. Throughout almost its entire time on Earth, the motor driving Christianity has been—in addition to the fear of death—fear of the devil and fear of hell. One can only imagine how potent these threats seemed prior to the rise of science and rational thinking, which have largely robbed these bogeys of their power to inspire terror.
Pope Benedict XVI has arrived in Spain amid protests over the cost of his visit. Demonstrators clashed with pilgrims and riot police in Madrid as they vented fury over the expense of World Youth Day celebrations at a time of belt-tightening and massive unemployment.

im sorry but i have to disagree.. firstly the article you link to is seriously biased with hate and anti christian views. it was written by chaz bufe aka charles bufe.. an anarchist with extreme views.. i cannot accept this as proof of your claims..
i could find you alternative articles damning every major religion on the planet.. that does mean what is written is true.
please find a link to a reputable source to back up your claims.
and you claim Illuminati links to the origins of the church..
i fail to see how a group formed in the 1700's because of the church has anything to do with the forming a 2000 year old religion. they may have infiltrated it at a latter stage but they did not form it, you are seriously misinformed if you believe they did.. (please do not believe every bit of garbage you read on the net)
it is widely believed the church's origins start with jesus christ and were brought to rome around 43 ad by peter..
i dont have the time to go into the full history here, but there in rome, Catholicism was mixed in with various pagan beliefs to make it more accepted by the people..
now my original point... the church was started by pedophiles for pedophiles is absolutely ridiculous, maybe there was an element of it throughout history within the organization but to say the foundation of the church is built of pedophilia is hugely inaccurate and slightly ignorant...

Since so many people suffered injustice by state atheism should we say atheism is pure evil?
Firstly, I believe it's accurate.
And so what? What good has the Church ever done except contribute to genocide (AIDS, no condom thingy) and mass pedophilia?
I think I'm being quite polite in my previous descriptions of the Church.
If you really have a problem with me saying it was set up purely for pedophilia, then ok, how about this?
The Church was set up purely for EVIL?
Is that more accurate?

Whatever floats your boat.
Go for it.
Roman Catholicism is a worldwide religious tradition of some 1.1 billion members. It traces its history to Jesus of Nazareth, an itinerant preacher in the area around Jerusalem during the period of Roman occupation, in the early 30s of the Common Era. Its members congregate in a communion of churches headed by bishops, whose role originated with the disciples of Jesus. Over a period of some decades after Jesus' life, death, and resurrection, the bishops spread out across the world to form a "universal" (Greek, katholikos) church, with the bishop of Rome (traced to the apostle Peter) holding primacy.

I take your point but with the record the church has over time I wouldn't trust what they say either.
You did say the Christian beliefs were based on Paganism. Yes that's true.
Paganism is worship of the Sun, Moon and Stars. Actually Christianity is based on exactly the same thing.
The Jesus story is very inaccurate and biased towards the church and Christian beliefs. Which in turn are Pagan. It basically makes the bible full of inaccurate information.
you'll notice from the Daily Telegraph report that the amount of followers of God and the amount of worshippers in church has fallen.
The control tool is failing. The believers in the invisible man are dwindling.
To stop people thinking for themselves and stop them giving up their faith. And the Illuminati/Babylonian Brotherhood love their child sacrifices which involve paedophilia and other horrors.
The vatican and it's apostles have been cheating, murdering the people and ripping them off for centuries.
The internet is just another Library only bigger.
Those links I posted are some of many that detail the same thing.

that's the problem with these extremist viewpoints... they dont look at both sides of the story, just the negative stuff whilst choosing to ignore the positive aspects of it..
While I'm at it, they should get some sense in their head and support gay and lesbians.
