Now, I'm not a Catholic -- not even in the least bit religious -- so I have no reason in particular to defend the Pope. Aren't we being a bit harsh? He's an old man with Parkinson's disease, he's going to be a little funny looking. Can any of us say that if a photo of us were to be taken at the wrong time we wouldn't look like a spaz?
I don't agree with very many of his policies, but geez, do we need to stoop to insulting his appearance?

The picture is hilarious not due to him being the pope, but due to the expression. It IS rather cruel to laugh at people with diseases and such, but that doesn't mean the picture is not funny. I would chuckle if I saw anyone in that position. The fact that it's the pope just allows for more creative jokes about it.

He's also a bigoted homophobe who's indirectly contributed to many deaths in Africa as a result of his archaic policies on contraception and sex in general. That piece of shit deserves every bad thing that happens to him.SCRawl wrote:Now, I'm not a Catholic -- not even in the least bit religious -- so I have no reason in particular to defend the Pope.

I guess it's amusing to see the "divine" Pope in that light, but I don't really find it funny for the sole reason of it's a result of something being mentally awry.

"The rest of the poem plays upon that pun. On the contrary, says Catullus, although my verses are soft (molliculi ac parum pudici in line 8, reversing the play on words), they can arouse even limp old men. Should Furius and Aurelius have any remaining doubts about Catullus' virility, he offers to fuck them anally and orally to prove otherwise." - Catullus 16, Wikipedia

To laugh or not to laugh.
On one hand: He has a disease and it's not his fault he looks dumb there. Plus he's old and has been shot before so he's bound to look funny at some point. Also he did some cool shit during the cold war (helping poland keep it's head held high, giving the reds the finger (figuratively)).
On the other: He has been an arse hole on many subjects. He could really help the world if he wasn't. Plus I, like wanda sykes, would've appreciated it if he swore at the catholic priests involved in the fucking choir boys scandal.
Compromise: Be inwardly ammused but temper it with the fact that it's not his fault.

So, what, since we should wish bad things upon the Pope for being indirectly responsible for whatever reason, what worse thing should we do to those who are directly responsible, that is, those who perpetuate traditional African misogynistic and promiscuous cultural values? Oh wait, that'd be culturally intolerant of someone who isn't white.

I'm old and experienced enough to have learned that physical appearance is not a good indicator for judging the instructions or advice a person issues. On this board such illogic is often descibed as an ad hominen attack.

I'm also old and experienced enough to have suffered the misfortune of seeing people who I am close to and whose intellect I greatly respect succumbing to Parkinsons disease. This experience has taught me that I find it contemptible for people to mock those suffering from that particular affliction.

I wouldn't listen to what he says. Of course it has nothing to do with his appearance, but the fact he sprouts crap.

He had a tracheotomy (hole in his throat) so he could breath better.
However Parkinson's disease is treated with drugs, not surgery per se to my knowledge.
