Tough Football Year

OK, whywork, I'll bite.  How does the Catholic church make fun of itself every day?  By comforting people, by ministering to the sick, by aiding the poor?  By giving assistance to the downtrodden around the world through missionary work and the Catholic Charities foundation?  With the many Catholic schools, universities and hospitals?  You're probably referring to the 4% of priests who have been accused (not convicted, accused) of child molestation.  No one is saying that even 1% isn't way too high, but 4% is lower than the rate among public school teachers; should we get rid of all schools?  You sound like you have other issues at play here which you need to resolve.  Until then, you might want to consider not blithely condemning the apple with the worm.

I merely said watch the documentary, you may actually learn something. You be a nice ostrich and keep your head buried deep in the sand. Like that  song says, " I read the news today oh boy. " What a glass house you live in. I'm feeling a bit tired , I think I'll step down now.

Whywork,

You said, and I quote, "Try Mea Maxima Culpa Silence in the House of God."  How was I supposed to know you were referring to a documentary film?  I did a quick study on the film and it seems to be a well-constructed (and very well-received by the Catholic church-hating atheist Hollywood community) indictment of one priest in particular, and the entire church in general.  Yes, terrible things happen in all groups.  And yes, despicable acts of subterfuge were engaged in; the system was perverted and justice was subverted.  But...condemning the entire church for the acts of a few is just stupid and wrong.  My eyes are open, yours seem to be fogged by hatred.  Who's the ostrich?

Ite in pace.

Whywork,

As they say at the University of Miami, stop beating a dead whore.
