And now for something completely different

You know what we need?

Vatican!Fail Bingo Cards.

I haven't worked out what's in all the squares yet, but I've got a good start:
ETA: More squares

Blame the Gays
Blame the Jews
You're being so mean to me!
Blame Therapy
Blame ethnic minorities
Try to make it a local issue
Deny the Holocaust
Quote Irrelevant Scripture
Deny Everything
Backtrack
Blame the Children
God Told Us To

Any other suggestions? These mostly relate to the latest pedophile priest scandal, but there's no limit. Any bit of *!fail that has or could come from the Vatican in response to criticism.

Please note - This is not about religion-bashing. This about institution-bashing. Just so we're clear.

They really are going for the set aren't they?

I'm about to add this to my post about it but someone linked me to this comic and it's perfect http://www.smbc-comics.com/comics/20100414.gif

Hope you feel better soon hon.

Quote irrelevant scripture (an oxymoron, I know)
Deny everything
Backtrack

Trying to think of more, but as of last Sunday the archbishop at the church I sing at was being really awesome about it. Let's see if the response since then changes the tune any. I am starting to feel incredibly uncomfortable singing there, even though I do my best to separate what we do from the religion, given my and some other choristers atheism and the general disgust the theists in the choir are showing at the whole thing. All I want to do is hang out with my friends and sing awesome music :(
