A Series of Odd Events

• The animals running the Burmese government aren't giving cyclone victims the food that has been donated by various other countries. Instead, the victims are getting moldy biscuits and old rice to eat. It is believed that the good stuff is being horded in military warehouses. What a bunch of jerks! (That's me, being diplomatic.)
• "Chubby" gays need love too. Now they have their own dating site. Interesting choice of words, I say. (Oh, and if you're at work, or if you value your own eyesight, you probably don't want to click on that link!!)
• You think Senator Obama's ex-pastor is nuts? Just listen to John McCain's pastor -- he's a certifiable whack-job. He actually says, "We get off on warfare" in the video. True, yes, but still frightening to see this crazy guys' message endorsed by a former POW. That's not odd at all, McCain! Geez!
• Einstein's views on god are explained in a recently discovered letter he wrote. Interesting how the American news media hasn't covered this at all...

Women get the short end of the stick once again in the Catholic Church

To pay the millions of dollars for out-of-court settlements resulting from the actions of predatory priests, Catholic nuns are being evicted from their homes so that the Church can sell the buildings to raise the money needed.

Wow. Where do I even begin with how fucked up that is?

I know a lot of Catholics who are good decent people but I see this latest development as just one more reason to question the Church's relevancy. Maybe if the Pope gave up wearing Gucci and Prada, an old nun could stay in her home. These women did dedicate their lives to serving God after all...guess that doesn't matter if you're not a man.
