You’d think things couldn’t get much worse for the Catholic Church. But the religious blogger Cranmer has an interesting article with numerous links on just how bad things are for Pope Ratzinger.
Of course, the “global pandemic of priestly paedophilia”, as he charmingly puts it, is very much to the fore.
There are articles all over the world: Time, Bloomberg, the Sydney Morning Herald, the Australian and Reuters, to name but a few.
It’s hard not to gloat.

We welcome lively and challenging comments. However, please try to stay on topic, be polite and do not use abusive, racist or sexist language, and do not incite your readers to violence or other antisocial behaviour, or your comment will be deleted. This isn't censorship: it's a case of staying within the bounds of decency and having an eye to the law, although we realise the law will be different in different countries.
We do not bar anonymous comments at the moment, but we would prefer that those commenting play fair and use their name or at least a regular nom de plume. It does show a confidence in your convictions. We know, too, that it's easy to use a false name and be effectively anonymous, but, again, we appeal to your sense of good practice. Even a wacky nom de plume is better, since at least readers will come to know that contributor and maybe remember her or his previous comments.
Blatant commercial advertising will be removed.
Comments should not be construed as necessarily the policy or opinion of the Pink Triangle Trust.

Honestly I'd like to see the Catholic church bankrupted. Make it sell some of those priceless artworks that they hold on to at all cost.
ReplyDeleteI agree completely. This group has, and continues to use the bible to beat people. The RCC has so hurt so many people, and yet defends the criminals they have given collars to.
ReplyDeleteCanibals (through transubstanciation) don't deserve paradise.
