Betsy maybe interested to know that Stephen Fry claims (or did a couple of years ago) to be celibate, his only indulgence being "self-pleasuring" s he likes to call it.

Joe, you're in a dream world. It is simply farcical to blather on about life in Sacremento when the Catholic church wreaks most of its havoc in deprived communities. The more primitive the society the greater the abuses. You have a peculiar understanding of your own power within the church. If it were anywhere near what you think it is, you would no doubt have righted many of the wrongs before now. As it is, you are merely a pawn for an institution that you yourself seem to regard as pretty much fucked up. no doubt you intend that to sound rebellious, but fucked-up is too feeble a term, implying little worse than incompetence or innocent muddle. You need to find a term that embraces mendacity and exploitation. That's the kind of rebellion your church is crying out for.
