Best of Decade: Babies and the Catholic Church.

Babies. You know there is a world population problem right now? True.  I know they’re cute and all and some may be our future president or the next Shaquille O’Neal, but cmon, enough of the making babies, let’s make some jobs for those babies first!!! It’s getting old.  Despite what the catholic church thinks, it’s ok to use a condom even when you’re sober.
The Catholic Church. No offense, I now know you are superior.  I mean that too despite whatever laughs ensues.  I’ve read and studied about enough religions to know that despite all your human flaws, you are the one organization that always takes me back and let’s me wander again as I will my entire life. No joke and thanks, you never hold it against me for knowing God is a woman, and she is universal.  I just won’t read the bible because humans I disagree with wrote it and I won’t attend Sunday services because if I wanted a good nap, I’d stay in bed.  Either way, I’m always thinkin of ya over the Chicago Trib, a good Dylan record and a cup o’ coffee.  All I’m missing is a nice catholic gal on the couch watching the BBC or me read.
