Mon Dieu, I just choked on my French, I mean, Freedom Fries reading this idiocy.
Zut alors, may a very runny Camembert suffocate this imbecile.
The French not religious?
Wow. Someone needs to spend some time with a history book. Those dudes were willing to follow a totally inexperienced teenage girl into battle just because she claimed God told her to lead them.
So France, called in medieval times "The Elder Daughter of the Church", was never Christian?
Shit. I have a lot of history to re-learn.
Not to mention the days of Charles de Gaulle, Vietnam, Sudan, millitary crackdowns on student revolts and plain old imperialism.
There's this thing called the Roman Cath--
ah hell, nevermind, depending on the flavor of fundie they aren't Christians anyway. I guess owing fealty to the Whore of Babylon would still be a religion though.
As someone who's been to France a few times, and seen the magnificant cathedrals, I beg to differ.
Also, I despise anti-French sentiment. So by that logic, I despise Phillip-George too.
As a Frenchman, I have to say that:

Seriously, go get yourself an history book, you eedjit!
I was sure that I saw quite a few churches in Paris. Are you telling me the Notre Dame, the Madeleine, the Saint-Chappele, and the Sacre-couer are for the pigeons?
Are you kidding me?
My Mother's completely and utterly French, and her family cannot shut up about how the previous Pope neglected to name Mary co-redemtrix.
See, the French are typically *Roman Catholic*.
Americentricism. Such a terrible disease. I bet Phillip-George hasn't even left his home state, never mind his country.
Ignorance. There should be a law against it.
The Jesuits would like a word with you.
Bring a stick to defend yourself, they're hair-pullers.
Also, allez-faire vous enculer.
It might be starting to drop off the radar screen now, the French being several light years ahead of the dumb fuck American fundies, but it was certainly high on the screen in times past.
PS I've been inside Notre Dame. I could have sworn it was a cathedral, but maybe I was mistaken and it was a giant pizza parlour or something.
Well, y'know, in an historical event called the "French Revolution", clerics were a popular target for the guillotine besides nobles. I wonder where the revolutionaries got all these clerics from when there was no religion in France? Did they import them from the USA so they had somebody to chop off their heads?
"I didn’t think religion ever made it onto a radar screen in that part of the world"
And thank fuck that it doesn't. We in Europe aren't as obessed about religion as you fundie nutty buggers are over there.

Unfortunately the French weren't quite able to complete this task, but the Catholic Church has become a little less vocal since the Revolution.
Man, I miss PG, the living and breathing avatar of the Dunning-Kruger effect. We had a better class of troll back then.
Nostalgia isn't what it used to be anymore...

The ultimate example of that was here:

P-G playing 'Devil's Advocaat' for someone who shall remain brainless on Ruptured Retards who thought that the War of Independence was about my country forcing Catholicism on the colony that would become the US. A war via King George III: head of the Protestant Church of England; the last Catholic monarch was Charles I, whose Cavaliers were beaten by the Roundheads of the Protestant Oliver Cromwell. The War of Independence started in 1775, the English Civil War ended in 1651. A gap of 124 years.
...fuck me, but I know about that. Particularly as the latter effectively started (1642) in my locale, Hull. A case of someone who Did Not Do The Research.
And P-G made himself look just as much a complete tit as well. Arguing in bad FAIL
Confused?
