Damned Pervert Priests - and other assorted Holy Scumbags
RE: Damned Pervert Priests - and other assorted Holy Scumbags
Quote:Catholic Church sex abuse claims: Vatican has immunity, rules ECHR

The Vatican has sovereign immunity that protects it from being sued in local courts over sexual abuse cases, the European Court of Human Rights said in a chamber ruling on Tuesday.

It dismissed a case brought by 24 French, Belgian and Dutch nationals, who said they were sexually abused by Catholic priests when they were children.

The European court agreed with the Belgian court that the Holy see enjoyed "diplomatic immunity" and "state privileges under international law".

But why would the Vatican want to be above the law if it's made of good and honest men? If they were good and honest, as the Vatican advertises itself, then they would pass all the laws with flying colors and would never be bothered by breaking laws so why bother making sure that the laws don't abide them?
teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"
