Catholic Church Opposes Removing Statute of Limitations for Child Rape

So, if nothing else would influence you to leave an institution behind, wouldn't this be it?

"Such a law in New York would cause the Church “catastrophic financial harm,” according to a statement of opposition from The New York State Catholic Conference,..."

Wow. It's hard to imagine being more cut off from reality...

My question for the Catholics:

How can you continue to write a check to this institution? Wouldn't it be sound ethically to convince your diocese to make changes by withholding your money from them?

Right and wrong aren't considerations, just the fucking debits and credits.


Fucking RICO prosecution is the only way I can think of to fucking get their attention.
 The granting of a pardon is an imputation of guilt, and the acceptance a confession of it.

The Catholics and Jews of the SCOTUS will never find that constitutional.

Religious people never properly reason.

They merely think the rest of us sinners and worldly individuals, devoid of salvation.

The entire point of their apologetic arguments is due directly to the fact that they cannot properly reason in the real world. They are stuck in their fantasy land of make believe.

That's all the brainwashing done early on in Catholic school. They teach you that as long as you go to confession, you can do the same thing over and over and over and then have a priest make you do 50 hail mary's and 40 our fathers over your rosary and your sin will be forgiven.

With that attitude, why bother trying to get the church to change it's mind about laws that that would benefit a victim?

I can't think of a happier outcome. When you commit, aid and abet the sexual assault of children YOU DON'T GET TO KEEP YOUR FUCKING MONEY!!

Cut off from reality? Quite the opposite. The dosh's important, after all. One could say, they're firmly rooted on planet earth this time round.

By that I mean the lack of presence to see that issuing a fucking press release opposing these laws looks fucking terrible.
