Althouse: "So, I don't know that it's going to jump me back into church, but what it did was it gave me good reason to not abandon... there's something there, and it's there for everybody, whatever your religion, it doesn't matter."

"So, I don't know that it's going to jump me back into church, but what it did was it gave me good reason to not abandon... there's something there, and it's there for everybody, whatever your religion, it doesn't matter."

Said Whoopi Goldberg.

Quoted in "The View's Whoopi Goldberg tears up after Pope Francis hails her as 'very important' during Vatican City visit - as she reveals the religious figure is a FAN of Sister Act and requested movie merchandise/Whoopi, 67, traveled to Italy last week to meet Pope Francis in the Vatican City/The actress described head of the Catholic church as 'amazing and progressive'/The View host gifted the 86-year-old with a Sister Act DVD and soundtrack" (Daily Mail).

Quaestor म्हणाले...: Whoopie likes praise, just like any other toddler.

Sister Act is to cinema as The Flying Nun is to television.; १६/१०/२३, ४:५२ PM
Quaestor म्हणाले...: If I must watch a movie about nuns, it will be Idle and Coltrane in Nuns on the Run. It has at least one good joke -- "Five Wounds for short." That's it, so the rest of you can go about your day with no need for monastic-themed entertainment.; १६/१०/२३, ४:५७ PM
n.n म्हणाले...: It's not religion-religion. Everyone has a religion (i.e. moral, ethical, legal code). That said, judge a religion by the content of its principles, not the diversity of its principals. #HateLovesAbortion; १६/१०/२३, ४:५७ PM
rehajm म्हणाले...: It’s now one of those ‘church light’ churches on Arlington St. where you can show up or not, fun social hour afterwards and fabu guy weddings.; १६/१०/२३, ४:५८ PM
The Crack Emcee म्हणाले...: "There's something there, and it's there for everybody, whatever your religion, it doesn't matter."

And if you're an atheist, it's not there, and y'all be tripping again.; १६/१०/२३, ४:५८ PM
Dear corrupt left, go F yourselves म्हणाले...: "progressive" is not a compliment. (perhaps she hasn't heard the latest); १६/१०/२३, ५:१४ PM
Caroline म्हणाले...: A pope Francis visit to The View can’t be far behind. Does Whooping know he is staunchly opposed to baby killing?; १६/१०/२३, ५:२२ PM
Joe Smith म्हणाले...: As far as I know she is not Catholic.

But she is in the running for the least talented famous actress ever.

Fake Jews having meetings with Socialist popes was not on my BINGO card...; १६/१०/२३, ५:२९ PM
Fandor म्हणाले...: Who in the world can take a person who goes by the name WHOOPIE seriously?
It’s time to move on from this clown show.; १६/१०/२३, ५:३६ PM
Narr म्हणाले...: I thought Whoopi was Jewish. (I kid, I kid.)

The merch is a nice touch; an obsolescing technology (DVD) for an obsolete institution.; १६/१०/२३, ५:३९ PM
rcocean म्हणाले...: Man, this Pope is a one man wrecking ball. I hope the next Pope can pick up the pieces.; १६/१०/२३, ५:४० PM
Lem Vibe Bandit म्हणाले...: Good for her.; १६/१०/२३, ५:४८ PM
Sebastian म्हणाले...: 'amazing and progressive'

That he is. Catholic? Not so much.; १६/१०/२३, ५:५३ PM
WK म्हणाले...: Fellow travelers.; १६/१०/२३, ६:०१ PM
Tom T. म्हणाले...: Sister Act was a cute movie.; १६/१०/२३, ६:१४ PM
tim maguire म्हणाले...: If voting for Barack can make Michelle proud of America, then why shouldn’t praise from the Pope make Whoopi proud of religion? After all, she’s just getting the only thing she ever really wanted from it.; १६/१०/२३, ६:१५ PM
cassandra lite म्हणाले...: She has more in common with Trump than she'd like to admit. Say something pretty to her and she goes weak in the knees.; १६/१०/२३, ६:१९ PM

TaeJohnDo म्हणाले...: Yet another reason to leave The Church...; १६/१०/२३, ६:४५ PM
Skeptical Voter म्हणाले...: Well if you ever believed that the Pope was infallible, his judgment that Whoopi
Goldberg is "amazing and progressive" is going to rock your view.; १६/१०/२३, ६:४८ PM
The Crack Emcee म्हणाले...: The Catholics Are Attacking by Joe Pop-O-Pie. I knew him for a short period of time. He invited me over to his flat one day, and all he ate was lettuce, with cranberry sauce and mayonnaise on it. He said it was his favorite dish. Then he opened his fridge and showed me that was all the food he bought - in bulk.

Man, I miss the old days,...; १६/१०/२३, ८:२७ PM
Lars Porsena म्हणाले...: The more ‘amazing and progressive’ the Church has gotten, the more emptier the pews.; १६/१०/२३, ८:५९ PM

Best movie about nuns ever by far is Black Narcissus directed by Michael Powell. Young nun in Himalayan convent goes mad for the love of a local guide. Suspenseful, intense movie, brilliantly directed, with gorgeous cinematography.; १६/१०/२३, ९:४० PM
Gunner म्हणाले...: Whoopi had one decent movie 30 years ago and she has been milking it ever since.; १६/१०/२३, ११:३४ PM
JAORE म्हणाले...: One hopes most people choose their religious beliefs on more than an ego stroke.

But one also hopes most people are a LOT smarter than Whoopi.; १७/१०/२३, १०:२५ AM
