Actually, a great many of the bishops in this country remind me of the Germans who stood by while Jews were carted away to the gas chambers. They saw nothing, heard nothing, felt nothing.

Finally, on the Myers question, we are treated to the situation where either Myers is a good guy, and therefore has been bumped by bad people from one of the bodies designed to (ha!) address this problem, or he is one of the bad guys who has bamboozled heretofore a lot of people. Both situational possibilities are bad.

No wonder the church is ridiculed.

Both of you are right in your own ways. But, comparing the bishops to the Germans is a little far-fetched, IMHO. Many Germans didn't just stand by while it was happening and actually risked death to rescue Jews. That charge is just a bit out of bounds. Aside from that there is no mass extermination underway. The homosexual abuse problems are not funny at all, but the severity is spotty. One person lives in a bad area and that has an impact. Please, though, don't paint all clergy with one color. It's just not true.

Otherwise, continue bickering. Those who would destroy the church for whatever reason are just eating this up. Divide and conquer. It seems to be working.
