Catholics and Michael Jackson and that Guy in SJC

There was a conference of catholic bishops in Chicago last week discussing the issue of child molestation in the church. An article in the Chicago Tribune was giving details about how the church was looking to renew its "zero tolerance" stance on offending priests so as to disallow the same type of scandal it is finishing with from happening again. One bishop was quoted as saying how he wished they didn't need that rule, but it was currently bad timing to abolish it. Funny, isn't it? The catholic church is supposed to be a leader in morality, like the hypocrites of the National Baptist group seem to be. Yet they want to give priests MORE THAN ONE opportunity to molest children. I guess they don't find this offensive and repulsive. Michael Jackson was just aquitted in his case. Will the catholic church now advocate children sleeping in his bed again? If it's ok for a priest to molest over and over, why not Michael Jackson? The catholic church must think that man in San Jose California is pretty close to being a god. Golly, he molested over 3,600 children and kept impeccable records. He even rated them and coded them according to the acts performed. I can almost hear the priests "oooohing" and "aaaaahing" over it already. You just have to love the moral among us. The kind of people we all just want to emulate.

I hope you feel outrage over these occurances. If you really loved children the way they should be loved, you would. Now keep in mind that these catholics want to inject their moral code into our secular government. If Rick Santorum had his way, catholic doctrine would be very much a part of it. Do you want that morality a part of YOUR government? I hope not. I know I don't. If Rick Santorum is such an advocate for catholic morals, and a champion for their cause, what is his relationship like with HIS children. Kind of sends a shiver up your spine just thinking of it. And a little outrage that he's an elected government official. And fear. He's popular, too. Just like the church. We all know how safe our kids are there.

Have a great week.
