From The Creator of Father Ted
Father Ted was a wonderfully delightful show that poked gentle fun at the Irish Catholic Church. Here is a quote from the creator of the show:
If all copies and records of ‘Father Ted’ were somehow wiped, I would find it impossible to summon up the affection with which Arthur and I initially wrote the show. Somehow, these days, The Irish Catholic Church seems a lot less cuddly.
I would go further and say that no religion anywhere is warm and cuddly. Nobody needs it. It’s just like that tupperware container full of moldy green food festering in the back of the refrigerator.
Throw that shit out!
If you check out the link you will see testimony from a victim of catholicism. I am quite impressed with his bravery. I think I could live a thousand years and still cringe at the thought of confronting certain people in my life.

Hey, but you avoided Brad Warner when he was in town. You’d like his form of religion, and might not even recognize it as religion. Zen!
