And you thought the Jews had it rough...

"Pope Benedict's personal preacher has compared criticism of the pontiff and Church over child abuse to "collective violence" suffered by the Jews."

I used to think that the Jews had it rough back in the day, but Father Cantalamessa opened my eyes to the truth and I realized that there are other victims just like the Jews out there, namely the catholic church and its paedophile priests. We have been criticizing and judging the church much to brashly, we need to stop and think about what we're doing a little more. Upon thinking over the subject of paedophile priests and criticizing the catholic church I realized, just like Father Cantalamessa, that the "collective violence" on the catholic church is almost identical to that of the Jews. In fact, the only real difference between the two groups is that the Jews didn't have to molest altar boys to be the recipients of persecution and ridicule, they just had to live. I guess there is one more difference between the two groups, 6 million Jews were murdered as a result of their persecution while the catholic priests have received a few slapped wrists and lost a handful of jobs...

Thank you Father Cantalamessa for opening our eyes to the terrible autracities that are being brought down upon the catholic church without any thought or justification. We now realize that we shouldn't criticize the church and  hold it accountable for the way its leaders treat innocent children, because to do so would be the start of another holocaust. Thank goodness for reason, wisdom, knowledge, and rationality in a world of deteriorating values and growing tolerance.

I love terrible logic and reasoning. Keep up the good work world.
