Pope Condom



Is it not absolutely sad and moving that we get to hear the most vehement protest against condoms and other contraceptive devices from the very man who daily wears one to work on his head?

However it is hard to take into account only the amusing aspect of this doubtlessly ridiculous and appalling attitude. It is thus recommended to sign the relevant partition in an attempt to save the lives that this man deliberately chooses to put at risk in the name of a god:

Save Chaplin

Hello folks.

I am a member of a mailinglist which is run by Indians and has mostly Indian people as its members. From this mailinglist you will mostly get news from and about India, programs in Indian cities, demonstrations in certain cities etc.
Everyday I get about 10 new mails.

Today I got one mail which said in its subject: "Save chaplin". I became interested and gave it a closer look. I will now send you the whole text of it. The mail is NOT a fake or a joke. It came over this existing mailinglist and its content should also be true.

"let's save chaplin

Today we have a shocking news in Times of India and Kannada prabha (of Indian express group). both the papers has reported that the fundamental organization activists has stopped film crew and artists who were working on 67 foot statue of charlie chaplin in Udupi, Karnataka (Info: Karnataka, is one state of India, the one where I did my longterm practical placement two years ago). reason: chaplin is a christian.

why we should succumb to these 'great dictators'?. lets save chaplin. lets sign a petition. lets voice our concern.
