After demons, C.H.U.D.'s are next!

Well, if you needed any further evidence that the Pope (and the Catholic church) is out of touch with reality . . .
The Pope has ordered his bishops to set up exorcism squads to tackle the rise of Satanism.

Vatican chiefs are concerned at what they see as an increased interest in the occult.

They have introduced courses for priests to combat what they call the most extreme form of "Godlessness."

Each bishop is to be told to have in his diocese a number of priests trained to fight demonic possession.

The initiative was revealed by 82-year-old Father Gabriele Amorth, the Vatican "exorcistinchief," to the online Catholic news service Petrus.

"Thanks be to God, we have a Pope who has decided to fight the Devil head-on," he said.

"Too many bishops are not taking this seriously and are not delegating their priests in the fight against the Devil. You have to hunt high and low for a properly trained exorcist.

Now tell me why we should listen to the Pope's opinion on ANYTHING?

Yeah, the Pope is just a teeny bit out of touch with reality. But, c'mon, they guy is 80-something years old and (presumably) a virgin. That's got to do something to your mind.
