	SO we're not conflating Burns with those bums here, are we?

	Nothing straw-ish about the fascists in the Catholic Church -- 
they EXIST.

	Gee; and I thought it was the totalitarian ideology...

	The only thing _I've_ argued with Burns is his reliance on that
`traditional' belief system.  You haven't clearly made the distinction, as

	I still think Ralph is a yuck, and we should just let it all roll
over our backs...  As for the `Church' -- it is a CENTER of reaction, and
Burns will continually have to defend its crimes if he continues to wear
that collar and append `SJ' to his messages.
