Child Molesters and Double Standards
Lance Winslow
Why the double standard on child molesters? This Catholic Church thing is a little bizarre. For instance if any Day Care Facility chain or franchise system across this country which had more than 1% of their directors who were involved in child sex abuses they would shut down the chain. Let us say a chain of 300 day care centers had directors which were child molesters, that chain would be shut down by the government or sued out of existence. I estimate these abuses by Bishops in the church to be above 40%; in other more bold estimates we are now hearing it is 2/3 of all Bishops? The Catholic Church should be barred from this country.

If a school district had 2% of it’s teachers who had committed these abuses they would close the district and heads would role. Since when can we allow this abuse to continue? We have laws in this country and those laws do not permit such activities, and therefore all these Bishops or Priests need to go to jail. How can we even think of this is acceptable? I have heard regular citizens say; “Oh it has been going on for centuries,” indeed, but does this make it right? How can we allow this to continue? This is crazy. Some estimate the Church will pay out 400 million to victims, other estimates are close to a billion, how can anyone feel good about giving to this organization. For all the good we could do with this organization and all the efforts by all the volunteers and to allow this to continue is unforgivable. It is time for the people to disenfranchise from the group, to start their own church or organization and do things right.

The Catholic Church has always been able to adapt itself to changes in public perception and modify it’s endeavors and take into account the need to change with the flow, until now, they have overstepped their bounds and they have broken the law. Both their own and those of the United States, how can this be? Imagine a Billion dollars being paid out to victims they were suppose to help and the problems that will cause with the homeless shelters and humanitarian projects? This is unforgivable and you are lucky I’m not in charge, because y’all would be outta here, this is is such BS. This charade has to stop. What scum of the Earth, what complete hypocrisy? Did I offend any of you? Well, did I, then what are you going to do about it. If you are a Catholic and you believe in the church, then fix the problem. All Catholics are marred by this and should be held responsible for not stepping up to the plate and taking care of business.

An organization is only as good as the people in it, and as Vince Lombardi would say a team is only as good as the dedication of it’s players to the cause. Either the people who belong to the Catholic Church are going to come into reality and fix this problem now, or the church will have to answer along with all it’s bishops to the law. How can we have a double standard from the rest of America and then have one of the most sacred institutions on the Planet get away with this? How can we allow those entrusted to our families to commit such acts? This has been going on for over 1000 years, it is time to call an ace an ace and a spade a spade. No more hiding, no more games and no more talk. No more sorry pitiful hunched over slobbering games. Take care of the problem now. No more BS. No more promises, no more talk, no more lies. We have the FBI attack and burn down cults in this country killing masters and followers, what these Priests and Bishops have done is just as bad. They should be burned at the stake since we cannot hang them anymore. All in the name of God? We have some excellent Catholics in our company and personal friends too, good folks, absolutely great people, people you can trust and they are being looked at in a negative way due to these everlasting and on going scandals. It is fundamentalism can’t you see, what these Bishops have become.

Pope is not the honorable title it once was, it is now the four-letter word that it is. We need to stop this now and hold those accountable for their sins and for our laws. We impeach a President for lying about getting a stupid blowjob from a consenting adult? Yet a Priest can molest an innocent child, your daughter and they are allowed to continue work or even be alive. How many fathers in this country can handle that notion; Think about it dad? What do you say, do we let this continue, or do we stop this? Right now, you decide, I don’t have any kids and they ain’t going to touch me, without losing a hand. Oh and while we are at it we better check all the other people of power in the other churches out there too. If we cannot trust those in power, let’s have all the government workers, regulators, enforcement officers and politicians take lie detector tests as well. If they fail they need no longer be citizens of this great nation. Think on it.

Checked Into Nirvana. Where Is Joy?

By N/A | Published 12/31/1969 | Metaphysical | Rating:
Eckhart Tolle lived upto his twenty ninth year in a state of almost continual anxiety interspersed with periods of suicidal depression. Then he woke up one night with a feeling of absolute dread. The silence of the night, the vague outlines of the furniture in the dark room, the distant noise of a passing train - everything felt so alien, so hostile, and so utterly meaningless that it created in him a deep loathing of the world. "I cannot live with myself any longer." This was the thought that kept repeating itself in his mind. Suddenly he became aware that if he could not live with himself, there had to be two - he and the "self" he could not live with. He was stunned by the realization. He became enveloped by powerful feelings.

Celebrex Law Suits Looking Like a Strong Case

By N/A | Published 12/31/1969 | Law | Rating:
There is no data as yet that indicates how many former patients of Pfizer's anti-inflammatory and painkilling drug are filing Celebrex law suits, but given the magnitude of the company's perceived crime it is likely that there will be very many. And even a quick perusal of the alleged behaviour of the company regarding this drug seems to point to Celebrex law suits being something of a fait accompli.
