ABC Typos
December 23rd 2007 01:21
Here's a report off the ABC website.
The Archbishop of Sydney, Cardinal George Pell, has used his annual Christmas message to ask for hope and peace across Australia.
In his message, CArdinal Pell also reminded people that religion should not be used as a reason or excuse for violence and warfare.
"During the last couple of years, God has been attacked here and there in the English speaking world and believers have been accused of causing most of the wars and crimes in history," he said.
"This is an exaggeration as the moral monsters of the 20th Century - Lenin, Stalin, Mao and Pol Pot - were atheists."
In his speech, Mr Pell also reminded churchgoers of next year's World Youth Day, which he says will bring thousands of people from across the world.
"Much more than Mary and Joesph journeying to Bethlehem, many will have travelled thousands of kilometres," he said.
"I ask you all to welcome them into your hearts and perhaps, as at the Olympics, into your homes." ENDS
Why would anyone ever say that the ABC doesn't take religion seriously? Three typos in 120 words is pretty good going. Mr Pell, is it? Shades of the Wee Frees! Next he'll be Moderator of the Catholic Church.

My content you and others will likely find interesting, There’ll be no offensive material that might otherwise encourage 1000 hits a day. My content will be light hearted, at times earthy & simple, and in between those posts… the lunatics fringe, on the farthest side of Pluto’s perimeter which is my only reason for anonymity… for now.
