What a plank.  I was shouting at the telly then. And that "fake" thing about Corin and the nominations, how stupid.  Just because X, Y or Z  Hms nominate her it doesn't mean they hate her, speaking pleasantly to someone you may have nommed isn't fake! It's being an adult and having a GRIP
She's trying so hard to be controversial and failing miserably....What an eegit.

As Dave implied, I think Caoimhe has some issues with the Catholic church, and these are colouring her opinion of him.
Eugene being an Irish catholic myself I can safely say many many have issues with the church atm....However that aside I think anyone taught even basic religion would know the Pope is not the leader of all Christianity.

Murky Dismal aka Caoimhe.




Murky is a nasty little being who lives in The Pits, his dark and dreary section of Rainbowland. Just as Rainbow Brite represents Brightness and happiness, Murky Dismal represents glumness and dreariness. Smiles and bright colors send him into fits of frenzy because such things are just too cheerful for words. In his Pits Laboratory, he sneakily concocts vaporous clouds of gloom which can be sent over people's heads whenever he wants to "gloom them down." His chief aim in life is to capture Rainbow Brite's Color Belt in order to disrupt the constructive activities in Rainbowland so that everyone will be as miserable as he is. When Murk Dismal is not plotting mischief at The Pits, he is traveling in his gray and gloomy vehicle, The Grunge Buggy, casting shadows on Rainbowland landscape and polluting the air and all living things with nasty fumes.

The point I was trying to make is that I got the impression that Caoimhe's comment was more of a "Freudian slip" than an actual misconception. I think she may have got her issues with Dave's views mixed up with her issues with the Catholic church's views, resulting in her mistakenly putting them together in the heat of the argument.


Having said that: I accept it is possible that she genuinely thought the Pope was the leader of all Christians. I've certainly met people who've made that mistake - even Catholics. However, they have all come from rather isolated backgrounds: the most notable being a Cuban woman I knew, who very much equated Christianity with Catholicism.
