And all the sinners saints

Kudos to the Catholic Church, which today canonized John Paul II, making him the first "saint" to currently be rotting in hell.

John Paul II is best known for presiding over the Church's sex abuse scandals which he tried to sweep under the rug as an American problem (what the fuck?) to protect the Church's financial assets and therefore allowed the rape of children by the Church's leadership to continue unabated.  John Paul II was also so anti-abortion and anti-gay that he pushed the church toward political conservatives, thus doing his part to ensure that the living (that would be the rest of us) would suffer at the hands of rampant income inequality and unheralded greed (for starters).  Starving children and extreme poverty?  Fuck that--there's gays in them thar hills!

On the bright side, the mass of humanity now has a much better chance of being canonized--let's face it, the Church has set the bar for entry into sainthood pretty fucking low.

Peace,
