Re: OT: MS Buys The Church
With all it's wealth, Microsoft could never afford the Catholic Church, the biggest business ever! Maybe the other way around. That would give Bill a lesson in Cut-throat tactics he would never forget!

Re: OT: MS Buys The Church
What a Shrewd Move!!!
Microsoft would not even have to pretend to pay taxes, or do charity.
P.S. Most of my family is still in the Church.
But - they don't contribute like they used too, ever since the scandals, coverups, and legal settlements.
The Church is really hurting finacially now. USA contributions have fallen off drastically.

Re: OT: MS Buys The Church
This reminds me old bbspot.com story "Microsoft purchases Evil™; from Satan". Just a in opposite sense, of course.
Btw it's a great site, worth to look it.

Re: OT: MS Buys The Church
This reminds me of an old Bloom County comic in which Bill Gates becomes Pope.
