in 1992, everyone thought Sinead O'Connor was nuts. now, maybe not so much. Her opinion piece in the Washington Post is here:

Quote:

one must realize that we Irish endured a brutal brand of Catholicism that revolved around the humiliation of children . . . I spent 18 months in An Grianán Training Centre, an institution in Dublin for girls with behavioral problems, at the recommendation of a social worker. An Grianán was one of the now-infamous church-sponsored "Magdalene laundries," which housed pregnant teenagers and uncooperative young women. We worked in the basement, washing priests' clothes in sinks with cold water and bars of soap. . . .

Irish Catholics are in a dysfunctional relationship with an abusive organization. The pope must take responsibility for the actions of his subordinates. . . . In Ireland, it is time we separated our God from our religion, and our faith from its alleged leaders.

Richard has produced some really great stuff but this is a bit over the top..

Richard Dawkins: I will arrest Pope Benedict XVI

Quote:

RICHARD DAWKINS, the atheist campaigner, is planning a legal ambush to have the Pope arrested during his state visit to Britain “for crimes against humanity”.

Dawkins and Christopher Hitchens, the atheist author, have asked human rights lawyers to produce a case for charging Pope Benedict XVI over his alleged cover-up of sexual abuse in the Catholic church.

The pair believe they can exploit the same legal principle used to arrest Augusto Pinochet, the late Chilean dictator, when he visited Britain in 1998.

Dawkins is an attention whore.

DanaC · 04-11-2010, 09:49 AM

I like Dawkins. He's one of my heros.

He may actually be serious here, but it also could just be an attention grabbing act to get people, who aren't listening yet, to start thinking about the invulnerability of the church in legal matters. The Pope, like the president, shouldnt be above the law.

A head of state, cannot be charged with crimes against humanity, while he's a head of state. Only after he steps down/is removed from office, and the Pope ain't stepping down.

I would agree that many plaintiffs' trial attorneys are attention whores--it's in their nature. (ETA: I see Dawkins is styled as an "atheist campaigner." I've never heard of him before, and the attorney comment was coming from my own perspective.)

The concept of trying the pope strikes me personally as less an avenue of justice and more as using him as a scapegoat for revenge--which isn't too Christian, is it?

I found the WikiP article on "universal jurisdiction" quite interesting: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Universal_jurisdiction

For one thing Hawkins could give a rats ass about being Christian. His point, which I agree with, is that its about time we start punching through the invisible force field that protects Catholic Priests from being prosecuted for their heinous acts and that all starts at the top.

Cloud · 04-11-2010, 11:07 AM

priests and laymen are being prosecuted for this, and have been for decades. Who is Hawkins?

Pico and ME · 04-11-2010, 11:12 AM

Oops..."D".

The church is protecting them though. Keeping it under wraps by just moving the them to other parishes.
