Mel Gibson's family values

The ultra-orthodox Catholic can't get remarried in the church unless he says he made a "mistake" and gets an annulment -- after a 28-year marriage. Time to reform Catholic divorce.

    Let's Reform the Color of the Sky, Too!

    Unless I missed the memo from the Vatican, isn't the Catholic church a non-democratic organization? I really don't understand these cafeteria Catholics who continue to pick and choose, swooning over liturgy while ranting against the hierarchy. If you want a religion where the common person has a say, pick a different one. It's not that hard!

    This isn't even meant to be anti-Catholic. It's just stating that a stone does not become an egg simply because a lot of people wish it so.
