The Priest Said What?

The state of Connecticut is proposing legislation that would rescind a statute of limitations (currently 30 years) on sexual abuse. A Priest, obviously concerned about what’s been going on for many decades said:

The "legislation would undermine the mission of the Catholic Church in Connecticut threatening our parishes, our schools, and our Catholic Charities," the letter says.

The “legislation” would undermine the mission? The legislation???

Ah, me. Nothing’s been learned.

Priest Abuse = Homosexual Abuse?

On a post that started out talking about human sacrifice in Uganda

http://voxday.blogspot.com/2010/04/who-needs-christianity.html

a guy named Travis had this to say,

“No, I'm simply appealing to the obvious. For instance, the Catholic Church's molester priest scandal that everyone got so worked up about was actually the gay molester priest scandal. Yet hardly anybody brought that fact up. It was just silently understood that there couldn't be any connection, despite appearances, and that you weren't supposed to talk about it. In a complete failure to recognize irony, the people shrieking the loudest about the abuse were largely the same liberals who condemn the church for not allowing openly gay priests to be ordained.”

I’ve purposely tried to stay clear of this subject on my blog but, what do you think?
