Subject: RE: BS: Catholic Bishop and Priest Scandal
Amos, forgive me but I seem to recall terms such as "unnatural celibacy" and the like being bandied about.....that kind of says to me rationalisation.....but then that was my take....

When I mentioned power I was not talking about the power of their positions.....I was talking about the power they feel when they see the fright and the shame in their vicitms' eyes.....the power they feel from ruining lives and destroying the souls of children.....for molestation does nothing but...and the only way to keep them from doing it again is to either throw them in prison and toss away the key....or to find something more fitting....like burning them at the stake.....gladly would I light the fires.
