My being a man of principle says that daddy at comment 21 has the much clearer perspective. A Pontius Pilate attitude adopted by the churches would be one heck of a sellout.
Money laundering so that they in their whited sepulchers will their hands (souls?) cleansed too. There is no higher Authority than the Bummer. No sirree. The Bummer is bending them over backwards to make sure their HANDS are clean.
Money laundering has been made a crime when anyone but the Bummer engages in it.
My principle is : don't force me to pay for others expenses against my will, to me being moral is when I can do it willingly. The Church does not share that principle. Their principle seems be give them a waiver because they object to it, but don't give SOL one. No I am not talking about all Catholics but most in Maryland are libs and believe that.
