Subject: RE: BS: Religious intolerance - take two
Whether Christians would cause the same fuss in equivalent circumstances is an interesting question. I can think of dramatic depictions of crimes in churches, and crimes committed by priests. But crimes actually committed in churches? In real life,there is a long and sordid tradition of sexual assaults by priests on youngsters in churches, but can anyone recall actual plays or films on the subject? Is that what the "Boys of Mount Cashel" is? And if so, did their production lead to violent protests by the faithful?
