Reply to comment by Specialist_Shine_298 in TIL that Napoleon once gave an ornately decorated tiara (a crown) to the pope with 3345 precious jewels inlaid into it. This was actually intended to be an insult, as the tiara weighed 18 pounds and was too small to fit on a human head. by Specific_Success_875
Thanks for sharing that. As a catholic its easy and for good measure to blast the church recently. Especially with the priest scandals. Its nice too hear some good news lol
Good news from 100 years ago lol. It's not really good news if you have to look back that far!
Yea like priests weren’t doing sketchy unethical and disgusting things before our modern sensibilities developed.
Google "castrato" and you'll be sent down all sorts of church related rabbit holes.
Hey, so, you like singing and we like the sound of your voice so if you’ll just turn your head and cough, we’ll just snip these right off and get back to worshipping Jesus
Wait until you try to figure out when conservatives were on the right side of history!
What’s the hardest part about growing up catholic?
Knowing that you're going to hell no matter what you do.
Edited for spelling mistake
Nah, it’s the priest.
