I’m wondering if Bosscat’s photo in the second post on this thread is correct as apparently the bloke they’ve picked has “spent much of his time in Peru”

A lot of people seem to be making fun of the Catholic Church on here.
Fair play to you, it’s a free swing, but you wouldn’t take the Micky out of Islam now, would you?

Christopher Hitchens certainly did before he left us far too soon.

Salman Rushdie, Richard Dawkins, Ayaan Hirsi Ali, Douglas Murray, Mossab Hassan Yousef, and many others are good to listen to on the subject of Islam.
