Only one of the many reasons why the current efforts by republican Christofacists to remake America in their image is so threatening.

"Others are skeptical"

No shit?

Dem goes all religious jujitsu!

It's different when a Dem does it!

A representative to the Kentucky legislature:

Same as it ever was.

Yet another decades-long child sexual-abuse scandal in the seemingly never-ending conspiracy by an international institution to protect the perpetrators in their midst from legal accountability for their depravity, and by doing so, enable and spread the abuser's opportunities to find and prey on new victims.

The Maryland Attorney General's Office has publicly released a redacted version of an investigative report detailing sex abuse allegations against more than 150 Catholic priests and examining the Archdiocese of Baltimore's response.

...The report goes back more than 80 years and identifies 156 priests, deacons, Catholic teachers and seminarians within the Archdiocese accused of the "sexual abuse" and "physical torture" of more than 600 victims...

"Today's report from the Maryland Attorney General is first and foremost a sad and painful reminder of the tremendous harm caused to innocent children and young people by some ministers of the Church," Baltimore Archbishop William Lori said. "The detailed accounts of abuse are shocking and soul searing. It is difficult for most to imagine that such evil acts could have actually occurred. For victim-survivors everywhere, they know the hard truth: These evil acts did occur."

..."We also investigated efforts by leardership of the Catholic church to hide and conceal that sexual abuse, with hundreds of thousands of documents dating back to the 1940s produced by the Archdiocese."

The Maryland Attorney General's Office issued the report during Holy Week — considered the most sacred time of year in Christianity ahead of Easter Sunday — and said the number of victims is likely far higher.

"The staggering pervasiveness of the abuse itself underscores the culpability of the Church hierarchy," the report said. "The sheer number of abusers and victims, the depravity of the abusers' conduct, and the frequency with which known abusers were given the opportunity to continue preying upon children are astonishing."

The investigation learned that abusers picked "children who were especially isolated or vulnerable because of shyness, lack of confidence, or problems at home, and they presented themselves as protectors...Abusers preyed upon the children most devoted to the church."

...The report details that St. Mark Parish in Catonsville had 11 abusers living and working there from 1964-2004, and the Church transferred known abusers after victims came forward.

The report reveals how the Archdiocese "repeatedly dismissed reports of abuse…failed to adequately investigate" and hid the abuse rather than protecting victims.

those goddamn grooming dems

Happy Easter boys and girls!

Indoctrination
Grooming
Pedophiles

They are everything they claim that I am just for being a Democrat. Sorry, but I simply do not understand why Christians think that the problem with this world is that people aren't going to church as much as they used to. The Catholic Church has no business being the moral authority of the land.

It's not a boogeyman story based on nonsense and slippery slope logic. It's a review of tens of thousands of cases of actual moral depravity and coordinated conspiracy to conceal and continue that depravity.

The Catholic church is not the only Christian church

I do not sweat the details of my labels as I know nothing about Catholic vs. Christian and I do not care about the difference. I am sure that I use the wrong terms frequently due to my lack of being indoctrinated by baptism or church attendance (thank you Mom and Dad). It has proven out over and over that this problem is not unique to any particular faction of religion. They have all proven out to have this exact same problem. Call them what you want, they are a multi-billion dollar tax-exempt corporation that has actively hidden known reports of more than tens of thousands of cases of gruesome rape and torture of our world's children.

Seriously, what the fuck happened to Whitlock?

Having seen Jason up close, I doubt he would fit in a slouchy chair.

No doubt. First time I met him, I was “so THAT’S why he doesn’t wear a hat”!

Dude has a massive cranium

The man wears (or at least wore) hats.

Back to religion.....
Not sure why but this came across my twitter "feed" this morning. Is it some kind of hint/sign?
