Bill Cosby Guilty!

As long as I get to hold onto the idea that Mr Rogers is still pure, I think my childhood can remain intact.

"Of course, everyone will claim they respect someone who tries to speak the truth, but in reality, this is a rare quality. Most respect those who speak truths they agree with, and their respect for the speaking only extends as far as their realm of personal agreement. It is less common, almost to the point of becoming a saintly virtue, that someone truly respects and loves the truth seeker, even when their conclusions differ wildly."

Being told you're delusional does not necessarily mean you're mental.

The god who allows children to be raped out of respect for the free will choice of the rapist, but punishes gay men for engaging in mutually consensual sex couldn't possibly be responsible for an intelligently designed universe.

Yeah, since I saw that fucked up movie "Ghost Dad" I knew there was something wrong with Cosby.
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"

The only problem with fame and trials is that the rich have far more resources to protect themselves.
I could care less if we are talking about Cosby or Clinton or Trump, nor do I care if the charge is rape or murder or speeding. It still remains that the rich even when convicted are punished far less than the middle class or poor. Martha Stewart did time for a financial crime but if a no name middle class or poor person had done the same, they would have been charged and punished harsher. Regardless of the nature of a charge, there has to be a statue of limitations on all crimes except murder. Bill willl get the same celebrity treatment in prison as Bernie Madoff. Trump will if he got the same conviction, The REAL problem society faces isn't that we cheer for the bad guys. None of us do. But, money talks, and it is easy to say what we would do or not do, but the innocent without the same fame or fortune can and do end up in prison for crimes they did not commit.  |
