I was in a quandary as to how I should write it. However considering the Catholic Church's reputation now I think I got it right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moonlover Posted July 22, 2019 Share Posted July 22, 2019 1 hour ago, Lucius verus said: ......or bad hat day ! Did anyone know there were almost 400,000 Catholics here. I know there are several churches in and close to Bangkok but almost 400k ? I thought the churches were for expats. I have never met a Thai catholic. Maybe the TAT supplied these stats to lure in big spending Italians.(sic) Come on up to north east Issan. There are large Catholic communities in Udon Thani and Sakon Nakhon. And almost the entire north shore of Nong Han Lake is Catholic. They mainly emanate from Vietnamese refugees, who came over during the war years. Catholic nuns are a common site in Udon and Sakon Nakhon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

geoffbezoz Posted July 22, 2019 Share Posted July 22, 2019 No doubt if it is true he will be having talks with the Supreme Patriarch discussing how the Catholic church and the Thai Buddhist community can con countless more billions from gullible souls. Then accompanied by the numerous Catholic shirt lifters in his entourage there will be a tour of Boyztown followed by an inspection of Soi 6 bars searching for underage girls on the advice no doubt of a local Monk , an expert into that sort of thing. He may have been planning on meeting the PM but suspect that this will not happen due to him always wearing a white dress with that stupid hat so hence Prayut would be frightened of him only being a ghost. ????

Jingthing Posted July 22, 2019 Share Posted July 22, 2019 I am happy for Thai Catholics that they can experience this very special event of a Papal visit. Also, if you're into Popes as Popes go, this particular one ain't chopped liver. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stupooey Posted July 22, 2019 Share Posted July 22, 2019 6 hours ago, kwan said: Is he Catholic ? No, as any QI aficiando knows. Francis has many official titles (Bishop of Rome, Servant of the servants of God etc.) but "Pope" is not one of them. That title is reserved for the leader of the Coptic Orthodox Church of Alexandria, currently Pope Tawadros II. So the answer to the perennial question "Is the Pope a Catholic?" is a resounding "No". As for whether polar bears shit in the woods, that is a different question entirely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
