New PopeTM Better than ever

So Joseph Ratzinger, the guy who called immigration and liberalism the biggest threats to the Church, is the new pope. This should be a good shot in the arm for the (Episcopalian) Church.

But let's cool it with the Nazi jokes. Just because the guy was forced into the Hitler Youth and then conscripted into the Wehrmacht does not make him a Nazi.

Think about how ridiculous the Nazi comparisons are.

Ratzinger served as JPII's right hand man and butt boy for 25 years. No real Nazi would serve under a Pole for that long. And no real Nazi would have let them have a Holocaust memorial in the Vatican.

That's just stupid and simple minded.

The Catholic church is way, way, way older than the Nazi party and has a far more sophisicated body of reactionary doctrine than some idiot racist party that lasted 15 years.

Update: More good old fashioned heresy over at the Fem-Tube.

Of all the possible Popes, they chose the Nazi Pope, not the African Pope, or the Brazilian Pope. . . . . but the fucking Nazi Pope.

To quote the French, ZUT ALORE!

You're totally right Al! Forget about the Nazi stuff - we've got bigger concerns. Benny totally looks vampiric in that shot! Here's what we should be worried about: the sudden population decrease in the children of Rome. Meanwhile Benny is drinking the biggest cups 'o "Christ's Blood" this "vinyard of the Lord" has ever seen...

Perhaps they found a way to push back St. Malachy's Prophesy by electing an undead pope.

The best quote about the new pope that I've been wringing the life out of today is this: "Ratzinger has all the views of the old pope and none of the charisma." The church is dead.

I thought the new pope looked familiar.
