... But the more my life goes on, and the more I find out and learn, the more I am convinced -

THE CATHOLIC CHURCH IS THE DEVIL'S OWN WORK ON PLANET EARTH.

I'm sorry SMW, all the fine and humanitarian work carried out by individuals and organisations in the name of the Church cannot even begin to make up for the murder, mayhem and misery visited upon millions and millions of people in the name of the "The Church" over the last 2000 years or so.

The Catholic Church is spelt E- V - I - L, Evil with a Capital E and Evil that all decent and good people should avoid at all costs.

cheers

It would be better for you to BSA to berate the mis deeds of ALL RELIGIONS, rather than just the Catholic Church (And Christianity in general), but you obviously don't have the courage required to do so. Instead you're just picking on an easy target, and I expect more coming from on of this site more intelligent contributers.

It ain't the religions, its the vehicles thereof. And I wouldn't stop at the christian religious vehicles, either.

Basically, religion is fine until people starting getting involved! Okay that's a bit exaggerated.

Sorry, BSA. I went a bit over the top when I said, in no uncertain terms that you were a coward, but most if not all faiths have had thier name tarnished to some extent by the deeds of people working "in thier name", and I felt that you were targeting the Catholic Church exclusively, whilst ignoring the many things that OTHER faiths have done to destroy lives, cultures etc.

The only problem that I have with religion is when its followers become zealous about thier faith, and wish to enforce it upon others, and this occurs amoungst all religions and faiths, and not just Catholicism.

Did anyone notice the difference between the George Pell situation and the Barry Cable one?

Pell

1. Unsubstantiated Allegation
2. Happened 40 some years ago
3. Unproven and Unprovable unless he admits to it
4. Accuser not named
5. Media happy to name him and drag his name through the dirt.

Cable

1. Unsubstantiated Allegation
2. Happened 40 some years ago
3. Unproven and Unprovable unless he admits to it
4. Accuser not named
5. Media treats him as Sacrosanct and only Paul Murray has the intestinal fortitude to name him

As a Christian Minister I find this slightly skewed.

Anyone else think this is a bit odd?

It must have escaped your attention, USA Eagle, that Pell outed himself.
