Okay, I was reading the Rolling Stone I got in the mail this week (the one with King Kong on the cover) and in the section talking about best and worst of the yr they have a blurd about the pope dissing Rock and citing Queen and Eagles as examples of how evil it is. I missed that, I would figure it would've been atleast a quirky news item. Anyone else hear about that.

If it is it just shows how out-of date,prejudiced and irrelevant this Pope is.

... oh for fucks sake, FUCK THE POPE.
Can you think of anything less consequential than a bored old sycophant living in a tax free environment preaching his total bullshit message to a bunch of people that don't know any better?
Well, there's me. But I reckon I'm only a few rungs underneath him.

Well done! I know this is hardly anything to do with Queen but what does the pope know about rock?
He can't stop people from enjoying themselves...this is sinful, living is sinful, breathing is sinful!??...can a world under his power be so boring?
He hardly does anything and i havent heard of him travelling across the world to spread the teachings of Christ and Christianity... i havent heard him do anything yet...ah well... he should chill out and listen to Queen!

The mere fact that he knows about bands like Queen and Eagles suprises me a lot
Maybe the RIAA paid him to say that to boost record sales.
I hate religion. I read that Bob Dylan had an audience with the former pope and entertained him with some songs. I like Bob Dylan, but it was probably the closest the pope had ever been to hell!

This is old news.
In free society, people can choose what they wish to believe, and equally, they can choose what to reject. But unfortunately, in the 21st century, with our given intelligence, there are still people stupid enough to believe in things that are rejected by most rational and modern people: most notably things that lead to bigotry and predudice. All one can do is hope that the next generations will be wiser.

THAT DAMN POPE!!!!!!! I HATE HIM NOW!!!!!!! GRR!! I THOUGHT THEY WERE ALL NICE AND SHIT!!! BOOOO!!!
Queen and the Eagles are the best examples of "evil" the Pope could come up with? This is coming from a man who was a Hitler Youth in WWII. Go figure.

Hes not the first to denounce rock music...
They need something to complain about. This pope is EXTREMELY conservative.
Its merely his opinion, albiet not a well researched one.
And i DEFINATLY dont agree at all.
So let him use QUEEN as an example, maybe itll bring more fans to the table if they're dead set against the pope.
Talk about irony though, he was a member of Hitler Youth, and its rock music hes after...
Wow...
Theres bigger problems out there. If he wants to focus on bloody good rock music, then let him, but hes only skirting serious issues... but then again, the pope only has say in religious matters anyways.
So who cares?!
