Have I misunderstood Libertarianism?

That stuff got changed in the 90s church by church, but most sex abuse scandals that we hear about now occurred before then. The parish I grew up in was a victim of Father Geoghan but by the time I became a altar server, (And I was the first and only female altar server for the parish at the time) he was no longer there.

Next wave of sex abuse cases are incoming and yes its the girlies.

What kind of humans do you live with? Charity is done for the sake of being good, at least it is where I come from.

Quote:Evidence for that?
Evidence for people giving more if they can afford to give more? Again, human kindness, our compassion, our mindset to always try to do good things. I don't think it's any coincidence that so many multi-millionaires are philanthropists.

Some rich people get rich by being mean arseholes.

I speak from familial experience.



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