Meaningfulness v meaninglessness; theism vs atheism;

dqualk Wrote:I am mystified to how you have allowed atheism to blind you. The fact is when one atheist does something we do not bind it on the whole. When on teacher and student do something we do not bind it on the entire school system. When on police officer shoots a black man because he is black we do not say the entire police force is evil etc etc etc etc

The cover up of vile the sexual acts was institutional in nature.
Often with priests just being moved to other parishes when the abuse was uncovered.
As the cover up was regulated by the catholic churches hierachy it is not wrong to blame them for the continued abuse.

If a lone policeman kills a black person then he is to blame. If then the whole police force close ranks to ensure that the crime is covered up and that the perpetrator does not face the full force of the law because of this, then the whole police force is to blame. Especially if the cover up is repeated time and time again for centuries.

How many millions must have been raped by catholic priests over the millenia.

Oh and the chief cover upper now holds the position of pope.



You can fix ignorance, you can't fix stupid.
