Yes and they don't even know the most corrupt pope of all time, Pope Alexander VI!

Meet Pope Alexander VI (reigned 1492-1503). A member of the Spanish branch of the powerful and corrupt Borgia family, Alexander bought and bribed his way onto the papal throne, and used it to gather wealth and women for himself and influence for his children (yes, children!).
By some accounts he had as many as seven illegitimate kids and carried on with numerous mistresses while on the papal throne. Alexander also made a fortune selling indulgences (or “free passes” to heaven), and married off his beautiful fair-haired daughter Lucrezia three times, each time to someone richer and more powerful. When the pope finally checked out, his peers decided to pay their respects by leaving Alexander to rot and turn purple in the Sistine Chapel, until his bloated corpse had to be stuffed and crammed into his coffin. Amen.

i find it rather humorous than irritating to read comments like "i think buddha is bitchin'", without even knowing anything about the religion, not even their own religious history...at least should have known something about INQUISITION, GOA INQUISITION, STEDINGEN OR CRUSADES..

...... BTW, don't forget to go to church today and talk to Jesus about his spiritual brother, Buddha!

The Gnostic Jesus you mean?

The Gnostic Jesus you mean?

Pope Leo X - Wikiquote

It has served us well, this myth of Christ. (sometimes misquoted as "How profitable this fable of Christ has been to us.")

* Widely quoted without source on the Internet. From a satire by John Bale (1495-1563), The Pageant of the Popes: "For on a time when a cardinall Bembus did move a question out of the Gospell, the Pope gave him a very contemptuous answer saying: All ages can testifie enough howe profitable that fable of Christe hath ben to us and our companie."
