I'm glad Flipside typed that one out for me - I couldn't have said it any better. Shame most people (and I use "most" losely) don't know any better.

We'd see how fast they changed the rules then.

Here's hoping that they realise that you can believe in God with the same amount of validity and not be subject to ridiculous rules.

You'd put Wheat Crunchies out of business, though.  

and they're brilliant handover cures IIRC.

[Knight Templar]

Well I don't know about you followers of the Holy God, but I certainly don't want sub-human non-wheat eating little demon girls going off to live in eternity with me.

Whoever said you'd get to heaven?

[Knight Templar]

Hey, I can handle my damn wheat.

We'll see if that one cuts it when you reach the pearly gates

It's free computers, innit?  Better than having nothing.

Maybe the Vatican should have a sign outside saying :-

'Warning - May contain Nuts'

[vyper]

All things bright and beautiful, all creatures great and wheat intolerant ...? I suspect stupidity may be cause, an exorcism is called for:

I remember the story of the Tartan Army's visit to the Vatican (to lay a wreath at a memorial for Bonnie Prince Charlie, IIRC) before a game vs Italy.

The piper played The Sash.

[Unknown Target]

Bah, I renounced my being Cathloic and changed my religion to Wicca (although I'm still studying). One of the reasons was that stuff like this doesn't happen in the latter

So when did God drop out of school?

[pyro-manic]

I just love the fact that that news article had the phonetic version of the word "gluten"!

EDIT: Ah, it's the American Yahoo. That'd be it.....

Correct.

I'm not even religious and I know half this stuff...

[Ford Prefect]

Bah, we all know St. Peter is just God in disguise when he wants to see what's going on without getting tailed by paparazzi.
