Catholism is no different to capitalism...it depends how it's used to control the masses.
At present capitalism is being hopelessly mismanaged as the Catholic church has been.
People should worry more about the Christian Right in the USA which is deadly.
Fry is an actor who uses his craft in similar ways.
Those speeches are so reminiscent of the Aetheist Religion of which the huymourless Dawkins is Pope of.

Can you refer to someone with mental illness as a "well-adjusted rationalist" ?
The only people who seem to be obsessed about religion in this country, outside of muslim fundamentalists (who are dangerous and are therefore left well alone by these soft white middle-class poseurs) are atheists. Maybe they're disappointed no one takes much notice of their 'daring' inconoclasm.
