It is not as apparent as you seem to think it is.

How many sex scandals in how many countries is it going to take before you admit that there is a systemic problem?

There's no magic number. These rapists are above the law, and rightly so. They know the word of God.

I think you missed the point...

But I already admit it's a problem. I'm just not ready to chuck rocks yet.

Then I shall re-phrase.


How many young boys need stretched assholes before you are sufficiently outraged to throw a few rocks?

I've followed the stories a bit... take the blind kids - the community itself did the hiding initially, and still wanted to protect the priest many years later ...is this not true? If so, how is any indirect decision made by a very distant overseer making that overseer "directly responsible"?

I think Hitchen's is taking the Pope's huge authority into context when he says 'directly responsible'. You'd think the Vatican would have angels telling them if a priest was misbehaving, right? lol

Heads on sticks if you ask me. But then again, my list of potential heads is very long.

For a second I thought you meant something completely different. Especially with you giving your list of heads.

Perhaps you mean heads on stakes.

No. I don't think so.

Apparently you are willing to go to the grave pretending that these religious fucks are not monsters.

Talk is cheap. Especially on the internet.


Of course, your cassock-wearing pals are finding out that talking to a lawyer costs about $1,000 an hour.
