    Americans have plenty of popes. They just call them by other names.

    One day, maybe, you will catch up with the Australians, who have just launched a nationwide investigation into the sexual practices of their clergy. And, God knows, the Australians were slow enough getting that started.

    Well we can only hope that some day we can root out all of the pervert priests and have decent laws which would allow us to execute them if we cannot be assured that the perverts be placed in the general prison population so that their fellow criminals apply true justice upon them.

    Isn't catching up with the Australians the preoccupation of Kiwis?
    Whoever criticizes capitalism, while approving immigration, whose working class is its first victim, had better shut up. Whoever criticizes immigration, while remaining silent about capitalism, should do the same.

    That's the answer. Sodomise all the priests until they scream to their saviour for relief.

    Religion's really hilarious, isn't it?

    It may sound harsh but Ido not believe that perverts who molest children deserve any pity nor do I believe that they arecapable of achieving redemption.

    It's amusing that secular authorities are holding churches to a higher standard than they pretend to have themselves.

    You are smart? I suppose that is a self-credited attribute.
