And the Catholic Church is the largest pedophile ring in the world. That's pretty criminal and they've been covering that up for centuries.
That is an absolutely ridiculous statement. Dan posted a very clear analysis here during the height of the recent "pedophilia" scandal that showed that rates of pedophilia among Catholic priests was no higher than in the general population at large, and I seem recall reading somewhere else -- Time? Newsweek? -- that the rates are actually *lower* among Catholic priests than among the general public. So give us a citation to back up that libel, or lose what little credibility you still have. By the way, I'm not saying that the Roman Catholic church is any better than any other church or large social organization, just that your claim is verifiably wrong and beneath even you. -- Mauro Diotallevi "Hey, Harry, you haven't done anything useful for a while -- you be the god of jello now." -- Patricia Wrede, 8/16/2006 on rasfc _______________________________________________ http://www.mccmedia.com/mailman/listinfo/brin-l
