    Seeing Tíbet as the seat of bhuddism and the dalai lama as its “pope” its like thinking the president of the mormon church is the leader of christianity

      I’d be willing to believe that. I guess the catholics have more numbers but like so many of them are just culturally christian. Nobody is just culturally mormon I think. Also they got more cash.

        Better CIA connections than the Vatican, too

          To be fair you could argue that historically it’s the other way around. The CIA managed to exist because it had Vatican links.

        I know a communist who calls himself “culturally Mormon,” but that’s just his way of saying he doesn’t consume caffeine.

          no that counts it’s not like the level to be culturally catholic is any higher

          In public, would he say “shit” or “shoot”?

            He’s not especially profane but I’ve never heard him use weird euphemisms like “shoot” or “fudge.” Next time I’m in a meeting with him I’ll drop a book on his foot and see what happens. If he passes the test I’ll explain that it was for opsec.

        Even if only 1% of Catholics are real practicing members of the religion, there would still be more of them than Mormons total.
