    Boy you need some sex ed and some ED treatment or something. If your actions inspire others to dream more, learn more, do more and become more, you are a leader." - John Quincy Adams You must accept one of two basic premises: Either we are alone in the universe, or we are not alone in the universe. And either way, the implications are staggering” - Wernher von Braun

    _Maxxx_ wrote: And are they not to respect the 'innocent until proven guilty' paradigm on which the law is based? Completely specious. First you are referring to an aspect of law and actually the law of a very limited (if not only one) number of countries. And that has nothing to do with the fundamental aspect of the church itself. Second if that concept is relevant in any way then why were they moving priests around? _Maxxx_ wrote: it is more like saying a hospital shouldn't be allowed to sack a doctor because he goes dogging on the weekend. Again morality is a fundamental precept of the religion. So your analogy is not apt because it ignores the connection between the specific nature of the religion and the act. For your analogy to be apt the priests would have needed to have been engaging in ponzi schemes.
