Bravo! This has to be my favorite Koy let-me-break-it-down-for-you sentence of all time. So does the Pope toss you a handful of those plastic rosaries if you show him your tits?

I second that bravo for Koyaanisqatsi! What an enjoyable and very well stated send up of the true false church. That is what is great being at the Secweb, sometimes others say what you are trying to say in such a fine manner.

A false religion? What is interesting here is that the Worlds Youngest Atheist (who probably can't earn his own living) is judging the Church that built the greatest empire in the history of mankind.
He may not be able to earn his own living, but then again the Catholic church did? Stealing from the poor so the fat priests could live it up and molest young children as they so please. Way to earn a living.

Oh, and the greatest Empire was in fact the Roman Empire, which paved the way for Christianity. The church did not "build" the empire, the foundations were well and truly laid.

Also, Koyaanisqatsi's observation is not only a humourous one, but a very valid comment on modern Catholicism. a third Bravo here from the gallery

Im a little confused by Amos' use of the word abundance here.

i think he is implying that the abundance was supplied by god and not stolen from peasants
