    In the Catholic Church, Alley, it is referred to as the adoration of the saints (not worship). You pray to the saints to intercede with God on your behalf (see, I remember some of the crap I learned in grammar school).

    Does anyone else think we should chip in for a plane ticket and send Yawn to a third-world country so he can spread some of his culture?

    Send him to Trench Town for a week, and speaking from experience, he'll appreciate life a little better.

    Thanks for the edu-ma-cation, Spnited. Appreciate it. And while I do appreciate the clarification, I was simply trying to make the point with Yawn.

    I was almost certain that this thread would be about THIS story, which is far more disturbing:

    If Pat Robertson would have been involved in the "goddess branding" of some 12-year-old, you assholes would be howling for his scalp.

    Again. Take. A. Bow. Hypocrites.

    Just make sure it's a place that already despises us.
