I don't buy into all the soul mumbo-jumbo, but it makes for good stories. Also, the Catholics made some good music back in the day.
damn, yes another thing I like is the religious music too. I have heard Richard Dawkins say he likes the bible for it's old English poems etc.
not only of Hindus but muslims have some nice songs as well. My muslim friend was laughing after I was humming a quite nice muslim prayer song (Hindi), long ago, but that moment was quite funny.
Yeah, about that...
Catholics used to castrate the choir boys so their voices wouldn't change.
yeah, they needed a high voice and they didn't know about Helium back then.
I'm sorry, I hope you're being sarcastic.
Are you not aware of the extensive history the Catholic Church has of molesting and abusing children?

I could look up a thousand articles and still probably wouldn't scratch the surface.
Can we discuss atheism without turning every thread into a rehashing of Religions' Atrocities.
It’s not just history, ask the current pope. He knew and protected molesters. And gets away with it.
