    Says who?

    Personally, I love the idea that Raymond spends his nights posting bad regexs to mailing lists under the pseudonym of Jane Smith. He'd be like a super hero, only more nerdy and less useful. [Trevel]

      The Catholic Church is always against any type of entertainment. They are the only Christian church which prohibits the marriage for their priests; I mean how sick, oppressive and monster creating is that? For example, in the Orthodox churches only a married man can became a priest, which makes perfect sense for me. Sorry if this is too soapbox type of post.

      No... you are wrong: once you are married then you can enjoy sex without protection as many times you want... and this is at least funny... ;) Let's hope this is not too much soapbox neither...

        A classic headline I think :laugh: The Vatican has come out against vampirical toothy teen book'n'movie series Twilight, dismissing the epic girl loves vampire, girl loses vampire, girl becomes vampire cycle as a "deviant moral vacuum". The Holy See's attempt to drive a stake through the heart of the burgeoning film franchise came as it took £1.8m on its opening day in Italy. It was down to Vatican in-house mag Osservatore Romano to deliver the verdict on the movie. According to the Daily Mail Monsignor Franco Perazzolo, of the Pontifical Council of Culture, said: "Men and women are transformed with horrible masks and it is once again that age-old trick or ideal formula of using extremes to make an impact at the box office. "This film is nothing more than a moral vacuum with a deviant message and as such should be of concern."

        Obviously, the church just doesn't understand the movie... They need to watch this: www.youtube.com/watch?v=m96hu-xprfE[^] (KSS) Hope this is the right link... Blocked from YouTube at work, so can't check

            The question to ask is what are Catholics good role models for?

              Great - more publicity for a useless* trilogy with a pathetic plot, loads of plot holes#, and a really bad role model *except for fuel #I can think of at least three off the top of my head

                    Did they say anything about werewolves? Can I use them as a role model?

                      I thought the whole vampire concept was a metaphor for the Catholic Church.
