		<description>Maybe he will destroy himself by his own patard - A gay anti-raty satirical  carnival is an excellent idea with as much loud music as is legally allowed and with floats and wonderful costumes and all gay - yes - count me in. By the way a huge number of Poles ignore him because of his Nazi background.</description>

		<description>Given that most of that £20 million is probably going on his security contingent I don&#039;t fancy anyone&#039;s chances of getting close enough to give him a good kick in the Gorballs, not that he doen&#039;t richly deserve one.</description>

		<description>England at the least should deny him entrance, or grab him and send him off to the International criminal court in the Hague.

His endlesss hatred of gay people is legendary.  I thought that the church wam opposed to cloning people.  But it sure creates not just the pope, but scads of clones of old Adolph Hitler and his minister of propaganda Gobbels.

Anyone who believes that Jesus life was a message of God&#039;s love for all God&#039;s creation is risking his future in heaven by giving one penny to this monstrosity.

This is the pope who UNexcommunicated a bishop williamson, who is a Holocasut denier.  To bring Williamsons 600,000 mad followers, and their money back into the church.

Which is what one would expect of someone who learned his lessons well while growing up in Nazi germany.</description>

		<description>I can&#039;t believe the UK is even THINKING of welcoming this hate-monger in the country, let alone PAYING for the whole shot.

If he has to something worthwhile to say, Let him visit UGANDA now! Then there&#039;s Puerto Rico...and Honduras....and Kenya.

20 million Pounds! That should be enough to put the guy in orbit for awhile from where he could see god punishing the earth by all kinds of natural catastrophes, e.g. earthquake in Haiti, volcano in Japan...and who knows what&#039;s next!! And all because I have a same-sex partner. Who knew??!</description>

		<description>Ahh... the pope&#039;s visits that cost the tax payers the money.

Its the exact same as if I gave some dude  $100 to knock me to the ground call me every derogatory homosexual word in the book.

popes visit is money well spent? if your a social masochist then sure! cause I can&#039;t think of no better past time than having someone verbally bash on who I am and then charge me for it. I would love to see some nation finally just close the door on this Jesus-pimp.</description>

Better there than here; we just ignore him on this side of the pond, a lesson we learned from the way our bishops fail to listen to us:

		<description>Nice idea, Flapjack, but I think the trouble with those Spanish Inquisition costumes, as in the video, is that people wearing them  will just appear to most people as a bunch of adoring cardinals.  Even The Sister of Perpetual Indulgence wouldn&#039;t come across as being in objection to the old goat unless they did something noticeable IN ADDITION - like waving placards or something.  I suppose if you carried placards saying &quot;The Spanish Inquisition to put Ratzinger on trial!&quot; then that would transmit the right message to cameras and so forth.</description>

		<description>I do not see why His Holier-than-thou-ness can&#039;t visit Northern Ireland, where I believe Roman Catholicism may have some adherents. Surely Bishop Pat Buckley would give him the welcome he deserves ( http://www.pinknews.co.uk/2010/02/04/gay-bishop-pat-buckley-to-have-a-civil-partnership/ ).</description>

		<description>Eddy - I&#039;m pretty sure the easiest way to get a likeness for the Ratzinger for effigy purposes is to get a Darth Sidious/ Emperor Palpatine from Star Wars cossie from your local fancy dress supplier and put it on a dummy (much like the Holy See did!)
I would like to go dressed as Monty Python&#039;s &quot;Spanish Inquisition&quot; myself.... he won&#039;t be expecting that!

		<description>George wrote: &quot;A family friend recently got a job teaching at a catholic secondary school, she left the post very quickly because of the crap, indoctrination and prejudice they teach the teenagers there.&quot;

Thanks for this, George.  It suggests that things haven&#039;t improved much in Catholic schools in Scotland since the last deluded old fool from the Vatican visited Scotland some 20 (?) years ago.  That old fool was clearly aware of and embarrassed by the hysteria of the Catholic school-children who had been herded into the stadium to greet him.  The kids, most of them in their teens, post-pubertal, were clearly hysterical: they screamed and waved at him as if he were some extraordinary super-being from outer space - or The Beatles reincarnated!  And they wouldn&#039;t stop even when he gestured for them to.  George, it sounds like the same pathetic spectacle may be seen again this time.

Abi, what a brilliant idea, your &quot;pope on a rope&quot;!  So easy to do, to make a light life-size effigy of the old fool.  All it really needs is a big white sheet draped around what looks like a body to look like the papal robes, then a head with a whopping great white papal mitre on it.  Even if it looks a bit like a member of the Ku Klux Klan it won&#039;t matter because everyone will know it&#039;s meant to be an effigy of the pope.  And then hang it BY THE NECK by rope from the end of a long pole or fishing rod and then just stand there on the pavement as the old goat goes by.  The TV cameras and press cameras are bound to pick it up!  And what a powerful statement.  The message would be clear: the bugger&#039;s only good for hanging.  Wouldn&#039;t contravene any laws, would it?  Could get you arrested, could it?  And it would certainly show the world what we think of &quot;Il Papa&quot;.  

I reckon we should arrange to have one of these dead popes dangling from a fishing-rod every 20 metres or so along the Papal route!

Let&#039;s get sewing!

Any other good ideas for the big parade?

Let&#039;s turn the worship of this old goat into a satirical carnival and have the time of our lives!  All the polite passive little Catholics all around us will be no threat, that&#039;s for sure.</description>

<p>Let&#8217;s get sewing!</p>
<p>Any other good ideas for the big parade?</p>
<p>Let&#8217;s turn the worship of this old goat into a satirical carnival and have the time of our lives!  All the polite passive little Catholics all around us will be no threat, that&#8217;s for sure.</p>

		<description>Strikes me that if it was Fred Phelps coming over to preach gay intolerance, less rights for women and anti abortion/ contraception messages and landing us with a £20 million bill for the priviledge of hearing these pearls of wisdom even the government would tell him to go jump in the lake.
The only major difference I can see is the Pope has a global congregation and Phelps has a small cult following of 200 inbred nutcases.
IMO we banned the wrong bigot.</description>

		<description>With respect and my apologies , while I am not a citizen of the UK, but for my money, I would seek to bar that relic and his medieval theology and philosophy from my country. His views just engender and inflame hate, violence and oppression in ,and by, some of his religious adherents toward our community. Why should he be given a venue and forum to express those views and leave the people of the UK with the costly &quot;bill,&quot; misery and discord?</description>

		<description>I dare say the Calvinist Wee Frees, who are even barmier than he is, will demonstrate en masse. I hope so. And he can&#039;t possibly think we&#039;re fooled when he says &#039;faith schools are a force for social cohesion&#039;. This is an empty gesture to ecumenism and communitarianism in a liberal age. He is a Counter-Reformation militant who thinks CATHOLIC faith schools are necessary to social indoctrination. Urban II and Pius V on wheels (literally). He needs more pressing on whether he expects British Catholics to disobey the law. If he is even equivocal on the matter he should be barred from entering the country.</description>

		<description>What about bringing a pope on a rope to every public appearance?
