RE: Damned Pervert Priests - and other assorted Holy Scumbags
Polish archbishop bans priests from receiving children in their homes

The archbishop of Kraków has issued a new set of rules for priests with the aim of protecting children and other vulnerable people from abuse. The decree – which is the first of its kind in Poland – includes a ban on priests receiving children in their homes and on keeping images of them without parental consent.

The rules also prohibit “crossing the boundaries of physical intimacy” by making any bodily contact unless required to ensure somebody’s health or associated with church rituals.

All violence, corporal punishment, and “hostile gestures” are expressly banned, as is encouragement of negative behaviour such as smoking cigarettes or drinking alcohol.

They should also avoid any conversations on growing up or sexuality outside of approved educational programmes, and particularly not refer to their own experiences. They should not have any secrets with children, practise sport with them individually, or keep any images of them without parents’ consent.

The document reminds its recipients to particularly refrain from erotic jokes and subtexts, profanities, raising one’s voice unnecessarily, ridiculing sacred things, and presenting or sending pornographic or violent materials.

“According to a resolution by the episcopate, every Polish diocese was supposed to prepare a preventive programme for protecting children and vulnerable people even in 2018,” he added. “Today the archbishop of Kraków is issuing a decree summarising these rules as part of cleansing the church and protecting children and young people.”

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"
