2. So true, majority Catholic countries for the last 500yrs have always been the lazy dirty basket cases of whatever region they're in.

The argie Dope Of A Pope just cannot stop himself from embarrassing the RCC.

Mind you, the RCC is full of embarrassing 'creatures' who put reality into the term 'fuck the poor' as long as they are little boys.

The DOAP still hasn't ensured ANY RCC 'Father' has been jailed. So much for him making changes.
