If all of this is true, if Catholics are willing to forgive their Pope for ignoring cries for help from sexually-abused children, then is there anything he couldn’t get away with in the name of the church? I think we can all agree, outside of cold-blooded murder, there isn’t any act more unforgivable and wrong than playing a role in the abuse of a child. When you’ve reached the point where even that won’t be held against you, ‘above the law’ doesn’t even begin to describe the power you’ve summoned over your indoctrinated.

You can mock other beliefs as cults, laugh at all the far-out Xenu stories you want – from where I’m sitting, all of this sounds at least AS crazy, if not 10x crazier than any portion of L.Ron’s Scientology canon.
