In Bob We Trust? The 23 Enigma?

Does anyone think it was a bit synchy that Bob Hoskins played 
Pope XXIII in a movie about that pope, Pope John XXIII is officially made a saint by Rome this week and then Bob Hoskins dies in the same week? 

The Roman Catholic church is canonizing John Paul II, left in a portrait in Vatican City on Saturday, and John XXIII

Remember this post I wrote at the beginning of the year?
My Philomena Spooky Syncy Sunday

What is it about Bob and the Church? 
Then tonight I see Steve Kilbey,

lead singer of The Church
posted this at his blog -
The truth about oh simply everything
well its like this
the world was made by god who then had a rest
a naughty angel became the devil to get our souls
god made a man and a girl and some animals who could talk
the naughty angel tricks the man altho its the girls fault really
god says to man “murder animals like this ” and “wear your hairdo like that”
god picks his favourites; a tribe in the middle east
he tells them to go around killing the other tribes and cutting off their foreskins (ouch)
what does god have against foreskins anyway?
meanwhile with all this the devil is unemployed
not much for him to do with all this going on really
god nukes some naughty cities and floods the whole world
a few good people escape but it all goes wrong again
incest false idols blasphemy genocide golden calves blah blah blah
and thats just the good guys
these are gods own faves out there living it up
murdering and pillaging
eventually god lets the faves get captured by some bad babylonian guy
to teach em a fucking lesson
are you following me?
god and devil play a game with Mr Job
of course this really happened
of course some omnipotent creator would play around with some miserable geezer
to see if geezer “believed” in him
oh sorry it was the naughty devil who did all the stuff not god
god just watched curious to see what mr job would do
then after all that god goes strangely silent
he stopped talking to us, didnt he?
this must all be true in its a book with scary illustrations
after a while a nice guy was born who had some good advice
which was be nice if you can
for his trouble he was nailed up to die painfully
after this we had the catholic church
who murdered oh millions and millions
sometimes they just cut off peoples noses
it was all for their own good you see
if you misinterpreted the trinity your nose should be cut off
meanwhile we herded and murdered all the animals
we killed each other too over land and their heathen gods
heathen gods with preposterous stories not like our proper god
oh we burnt the witches who were good friends with the naughty devil
and we went round the world giving our god to em
whether they wanted it or not
we gave em cannons and muskets and gin and VD
we gave em St Paul the apostle who knew a bit about killing himself
we saved their heathen hides from hell
we decided jesus died for our sins in a blood sacrifice
who exactly decided that tho i am not sure
it doesnt seem to quite make any sense
tho it certainly arouses a lot of furore from those who never thought it through
the naughty devil brought the sin
so god killed himself
to save us from hell
well thats logical i suppose
i’m glad we have not adhered to some old superstitious stuff
but if jesus died for our sins why did we have to burn all those witches?
why is an organisation that committed such atrocities still extant and offering no apology?
no apology either for the havoc and misery wreaked by idiot missionaries
finally the western world comes along
the spanish and portugese fuck south america
and the english fuck australia america and africa and india
and then england and germany fuck each other twice
and lots of people get killed
i mean lots and lots and lots
but at least freedom was saved
and now finally its 2014
we have a christian prime minister in australia
we are following christs example and buying some fighter jets
we are disregarding the bit about looking after the children and the old and all that
we are tough on drugs
we are tough on the not so great barrier reef
we are tough on the dole bludging lazy oiks sucking off the welfare system
we believe in a fair dinkum go
we believe in what australians believe in
and that is
a fair shake of the sauce bottle for battlers
and shouldering the pain for australia
because thats fair dinkum
jesus himself abhorred a deficit budget
he didnt like refugees without immigrant visas either
and he hated pot smokers …i read that on facebook

 Bit of a rabbit hole we have here I guess. :-)

 

A Synchy Evening with Steve Kilbey

Lightning strikes the statue Christ the Redeemer
in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil on January 16, 2014

Lightning had broken a finger off the right hand of

Christ the Redeemer statue in Rio de Janeiro (River of January) in January 2014 (the year Bob Hoskins would die) and Bob was in the movie 'Brasil' also, with Jonathan Pryce, the look-a-like of current pope, Pope Francis.

Also last week, just before the two popes were made saints, a 30-metre-high wooden cross toppled over during the event near the Alpine village of Cevo in northern Italy, instantly killing Marco Gusmini, 21, on Wednesday.
