Tim Minchin has some thoughts about the Pope


Let's just take a second and hear him out. Also, there's some language.



Well there you have it - Tim Minchin is as irreverent as usual. If you're still reading then you either didn't watch the video, or weren't offended enough to leave. Awesome. So was the language in the video warranted?  There's a well-documented history of Pope Benedict XVI's involvement in covering up child abuse within the church

So given the Church's long history of abuse scandals and their recently-halted campaign against condoms and other contraceptives in Africa, it's hard to be sympathetic. The Pope sits in Vatican city while people starve outside, only venturing forth occasionally in his pope-mobile (which is apparently more protective than divine favor). So yeah, fuck the pope, and anyone who would aid in covering up even a single abuse.
