Because being called out on harboring child molesters is JUST LIKE being persecuted I don't usually love Maureen Dowd, but I've gotta say that every time in the last two weeks that I've wanted to write a blog post about how much I despise Benedict XVI and the priests who represent the face of Catholicism to the world, she goes ahead and does it for me. It's just...UGH. IT IS HOLY WEEK, SIR. HAVE A LITTLE HUMILITY. Instead of saying shit like "We will overcome the people who are being mean to me right now!" How about saying, "I crawl on my knees and ask forgiveness for the horrible things I've done. AND NOW PEOPLE WILL GO TO JAIL FOR WHAT THEY DID." I also liked A Nope for Pope. I am so disgusted right now. And the next time that someone asks me, "Why are you still Catholic?" or "How do you feel about that?" they will get kicked in the neck. I FEEL REALLY GOOD ABOUT CHILDREN GETTING MOLESTED, THANKS FOR ASKING. When congressmen molest boys, nobody says, "Shit, I'm going to stop being American!" Nobody says, "Wow, doesn't that make you want to stop feeling patriotic?" Nobody says, "Wow, so Mark Foley molested a boy. How do you feel about that?" Because those questions are absurd and the answers are self-evident. But when the situation is about a different aspect of someone's identity - their faith - THAT SHIT IS TOTALLY DIFFERENT, and it's okay to be abhorrently inappropriate. .....OR IS IT?!
