Catholic baiting, are we?
Oh, well. Let me pile on. I just love all these people "from other lands" (to quote Robert Klein) who come to this country and tell us how we racist, insensitive, and unfair we all are. (Like we don't grow enough of our own) Our "Native Americans" and Blacks are treated badly? Maybe in comparison to his Pederast Priests, most of whom, instead of getting punished or disciplined, are merely transferred to another location (where they are undoubtedly free to do it again!), where they maintain their same position and privilege.
Maybe we're not perfect but at least we try and redress our wrongs, Benny, baby. We're not hypocrites, living in the lap of luxury, all the while telling our followers to give to the poor. To channel Lenny Bruce, one wonders what Christ would think if he came back and saw the pope and Catholic high clergy living like lords while there all their followers starvinjg.
You think I'm a bit bitter? Let's just say I recognize a fraud when I see one. All that "love thy fellow man" stuff resulted in more Jews being killed by Catholics than anybody (or anything else). Twas ever thus. Going back to the Crusades, allegedly designed to recover jerusalem from the infidels, managed to kill more Jews than Muslims!
Let the Pope take care of his own instead worrying about everyone else. Seems to me that this is more than a full-time job. If, truly, he who is without sin cast the first stone, the Pope should make damn sure he keeps his hands in his pockets.
This is not a religious diatribe. You worship as you please.
