So... basically what you're saying is that the Cleric has the defense of saying "I can do and say whatever I want, because look at what that other guy does! He's just as bad, so I'll use him as an excuse to spout whatever I damn well please, democratic pigs! Tr-la-la-la-la"? Hrm. Not highly intelligent, but hey, that's the world we live in I suppose.
I think you'll also find that the Pope's views are not as extreme as saying 'women deserve to be raped'. But then again, as a victim of the Church's discrimination myself, perhaps I'm not the best person to be asking seeing as I try to have as little do with any religion as I can.
If anything I think that the Church is moving forward to adapt to the world's views, not try to bring barbarism back into society. [/QUOTE]I agree Dave
with your latter statement. The church has been proactively trying to change with modern times. That cleric wants to bring us all back to the Dark Age. I think there should be limits to extreminism when it comes to speech. If we follow a extreme democracy, I would believe there would be chaos.
In another matter, I read this which actually concerned me. (points to Dave)
