Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz.
Too bad that *both* of them aren’t silent.
did Penn & Teller lose their minds??
I found their show rather entertaining at one point, but I knew that even though I agreed with many of their episodes (by no means all) I could tell they were distorting facts (if not outright lying) and purely one-sided in their arguments.
I stopped watching them a long time ago.
The Catholic League should have ignored P&T — now their ratings will go through the roof — especially among the Christian / Catholic bashers out there.
It's all part of the plot to destroy Christianity across the nation and make the Marxist government our God.
Libel ... if what they say is untrue, then sue for libel and defamation. We have a court system, use it. If what they said is untrue, bankrupt them - I have no problem with that at all.
However, the Catholic Church has, and is still actively protecting members of its clergy who have molested children. If you want accountability, act accountable.
Why defend the indefensible?
Consider the source.
I’m holding my breath waiting for the expose on the religion of pieces. /sarc
Yeah. They hate the Boy Scouts too.
This week the League commenced a mass mailing of DVD copies of the outrageous episode to bishops and religious leaders across the nation. 414 bishops, hundreds of influential Catholic, Protestant, Jewish, Orthodox Christian, Muslim and Mormon religious leaders across the United States are to receive the packages. The League has also posted the complete program on its website....
"One of the most vile, obscene programs ever aired in any nation" is being distributed by the Catholic League and Bill Donohue en masse and free of charge, to hundreds of religious leaders across the nation. Oh the irony.
They are cheap shot artists who don’t really care about the veracity of their information. They do not lose sleep worrying about accuracy. They are slobs.

So now more people than otherwise would have will see this? I find it hard to believe that it was the intent of the “League” to make sure that this offense was viewed by as many people as possible.
Look at the job they did on Mahatma (means "Saint" in Hindi) Gandhi.
“The League has also posted the complete program on its website here”
Why in the world are they promoting this thing?
Oh please. This show didn't do such a thing, it talked about three or four major scandals and the politics of the church reacting. For the most part, it did not go into Catholicism as a religion, instead it focused on the politics of the church. The theme was the church being a self-protecting (to the point of a fault at times) political-esque entity instead of a religious organization. This is a debate/challenge that happens with almost all denominations, Catholics more because of their size and longer history.
Even aside from the questionable legality here, that's ridiculous attention-whore behavior.
These leftist retards don't realize that, even if they do manage to destroy Christianity in this country, that vacuum will only be filled with something else. And when they try attack that, they are going to be very sorry.
