I think the Pope's stand on the liberation of Iraq is embarrassing - he is on the side of the homicidal maniac Hussein. Perhaps he is mentally deficient.

[newgeezer]

And that is what the Pope mostly does these days: pray. He delegates almost all other duties to a variety of underlings, none of whom has the power or insight to deal with a scandal as withering as this priest-sex abuse thing.

It sure sounds like O'Reilly thinks praying is a waste of time. That figures.

"The Pope was visibly angry and shortly afterward retreated into prayer. "

"And that is what the Pope mostly does these days: pray."

Maybe God has turned away from him as well. I doubt that God approves of what went on with the priests and little ones, bribing victims with tithes to keep quiet, moving the pervert to molest other unsuspecting little ones all for image. Well, now there is no image to protect. Worse yet, consitently on the wrong sides of issues doesn't help matters and why I wonder if God has turned His back on the pope.

Why [has he] not acted more aggressively in combating the priest-sexual abuse scandal in America...

The question is much bigger than that! Our American media keeps framing it that way...(it being 'just' about pedophilia)
But the real question is WHY is the Catholic church SILENT on HOMOSEXUALITY???

They'll say that using condoms is a sin as it prevents the creation by God of a human life.

But they won't say that fudge-packing is a sin... even though it ALSO prevents God from creating a human life.

It won't say the gay lifestyle is a sin... even though it it can't procreate... It can only RECRUIT!

We now know why... The gays have taken over the church and it is now a moral sewer.

I won't support them financially any more! And I look forward to eventually finding a replacement to their failed morals.

Maybe the Catholic leadership is actually taking their guidance from the giant "queen spider" (as per southpark episode "red hot Catholic love) after all??? (sarcasm)
