Atheist News Podcast Project
If someone wants to bother trying to explain the Holy Tri-Force to me--and they manage to convince me that three things can be three things and also be one thing at the same time--I'll stop calling Catholics polytheists; until then they are out of luck. The saints and angels business doesn't do much for your cause, I might add. |
