Wherein I point out the obvious



Written: 05/22/2011

I have a huge, huge post that’s been in the works for years about the hatred the hierarchy of the Catholic Church throws at the LGBT community. Note: And it continues to grow and is in need of so much editing, it will probably never see the light of day.  It’s probably not the healthiest thing to keep a log of all their hatred, but everyone needs a hobby, right?

However, I’d like to point this out in a separate post, as the underlying lie is what the Boy Scouts also use to hide behind in denying membership to the LGBT community.

A study commissioned by U.S. Roman Catholic bishops concludes that neither the all-male celibate priesthood nor homosexuality caused the church’s sexual abuse crisis.

Gay men are no more likely to be pedophiles than heterosexual men.  It amounts to slander to say otherwise.

By the way, the study concluded that the sex abuse crisis was caused by too much social change in the 60s and 70s.  Which is a load of bullshit.  Billions of people made it through those two decades without becoming raping pieces of shit.  Slog comments:

I guess the takeaway here is this: Keep things on an even keel—not too much social change, not too quickly—or God’s representatives here on earth will rape your kids.

All my best,

The King of Spades
