I wish we could.

Well, sometimes war is unavoidable. But if it's war those savage madmen want, it's [U]annihilation[/U] they'll receive.
As much as I'd like to see this happen I really think it won't. The British government/ministry of justice/high court or whatever will dismiss the case on some formality just to avoid any conflict.
Richard Dawkins.. My hero :love:
Richard Dawkins is a stuck up prick, and even a lot of atheists think he's nuts...
However, I totally agree with him for arresting the Pope. Catholicism is the most corrupt part of Christianity.

He was awesome, i'm sure that even atheists loved him

How on Earth is he a stuck up prick?

You're just saying that because he uses words that you don't understand.
[editline]11:00PM[/editline]
And because he is British.
It would be better if this was all kept a secret and then Dawkins could surprise us all when the Pope visits. He parachutes out of the sky with handcuffs in one hand and a crate full of copies of the God Delusion in the other. He slaps handcuffs on the Pope and throws out free copies of The God Delusion to all of the people in the crowd.

Actually he has a fair point; Dawkins does sometimes get overly aggressive.

Yeah, he's as bad as any religious fanatic.
But yeah, I hope he does do this, it's gonna be hilarious.
Amusing. Irrelevant and impossible, yes, but amusing.

The worst he's done is say religion is stupid.
[QUOTE=sp00ks;21285784]The worst he's done is say religion is stupid.[/QUOTE]
He makes a lot of ad hominem attacks I suppose.
[QUOTE=Performual;21283917]Make the Dalai Lama the next Pope.[/QUOTE]
The dalai lama isn't any better.
[QUOTE=Ignhelper;21285928]The dalai lama isn't any better.[/QUOTE]
seems like a nice person
Dawkins is no prick. He gives religion the respect it deserves.

Yeah if this fails, it'll be the UK government not wanting to be responsible for a holy war.

When?
go team dawkins :saddowns:
Team dawkins vs. Team eggward
Do what must be done Richard, only you can arrest the evil pope.
I'm sad that it's come to this, but he's been a terrible Pope.
go team hitchins?
Peter Hitchens is going to have a field day. An annoying, whiny field day.

I watch fox news a lot (Don't judge me), and from what I see, they think the Pope is a kiddy fiddling monster.
They are protestant, not catholic.
I remember somebody ON FACEPUNCH WHO IS AN ATHEIST OF COURSE saying that the Catholic Church is like a state or nation itself.
something about like you cant just arrest Bush when he visits Afghanistan just because everybody doesnt like him without going to war. bad analogy but do you get his point?

The Vatican is the state of the catholic church. The pope is the head of the catholics and therefore also the head of state of the Vatican.
As the news explained, the Vatican however has some kind of special case where it isn't acknowledged as a full state by the UN. That means the pope might lose his immunity.
[QUOTE=dirty harry;21284328]Awesome. Dawkins is a fucking badass.
I love how this also smashes those claims by religious organisations that Atheists have no morals.
You don't have to be Atheist to find this awesome, either - you just need know that child molestation, and the following coverup of it is, in fact, bad.[/QUOTE]
Exactly, I hope the Pope gets what he deserves. AKA a nice small prison cell and public showers.
