This seems like an example of "the pot calling the kettle black". Hitchens appears to be projecting his own religious prejudges into Mel, with the erroneous charge Mel's obvious emotional and mental problems are the result of his Catholic beliefs.

I have been wondering since Mel's earlier arrest in Malibu if he had been placed on anti-depressive or anti-psychotic drugs to deal with the cause of his drinking and other disorders. Is it a possibility His recent bizarre, yet uncharacteristic, behavior could be the result of a reaction to these medications. He was married to the same lady for a very long time, they both are the same mother and father of a large number of decent children. He was known as a loyal family man, rare in hedonist Hollywood.

I am obviously no "shrink", just an amateur wondering.

Whatever the case, I hope Mel gets his head on straight. His reputation is shot. Forget the good fruit born by Braveheart, the Patriot, The Passion, and Apocolypto [which exposed the rubbish of how wonderful Aztecs were]. It only takes one fly of foolishness to ruin the ointmennt. In Mr. Gibson’s case, it’s a lot more than one, and the leftists are dancing on the grave of his rep.

I pray he doesn’t do anything even more extreme than he already has done. He probably needs a sebatical. He needs to get away from the news. He needs to re-read Gal. 6:12 every morning and night for a solid month: Do good things unto all people — ALL people [especially unto the Brotherhood of Faith]. More importantly, be good to all people. God loves ALL people.

And for the record — I was also a Catholic as a kid. And some creep tried to molest me. One of that creep’s friends is in prison now for child molestation [a priest], and I’m not surprised. As an adult, I went back to that church for the sake of my grandmother, and a priest hit on my girlfriend.

I dropped that stinking church for good reason. American educated priests are just as twisted as Obama if not worse.
