Didn't you read the first message?

Yes I know.
However, OEJ clearly gets it.

Can't you come up with something original? Still, imitation is the sincerest form of flattery I suppose........!boring!

Ok I will give these a tryout in future as the need arises.
1. Fuck me, is your brain stuck in a loop, Jim?
2. Have I woken up in the middle of yet another Father Jack speech "Drink, fech, arse, New Labour?"
3. Did you once have sex with Mary Whitehouse while Neil Kinnock was making a speech on the steam radio?

Re: Horrible!
This topic again?
It's been done to death, we've all made our points and as far as I'm aware no one, on any side, have had their prejudices cured or their minds changed.
You know my feelings. It should be obvious that skin colour has hardly any bearing on how we behave. Conversely, culture and religion does. Culture and religion plays a big part in one's upbringing, education and morals. there'd be no point in these things if they didn't affect how we behave.
So when there's a problem we have to look at culture and religion first. They influence our attitudes to life and others, what laws we introduce and how we raise our young.
If there's anything in British culture, law or upbringing that encourages the sexual abuse of minors, or even an implication it's socially acceptable to do so, I've not come across it in my 36 years of living here. I see no evidence of it. British Catholicism, though, does have something to answer for. I believe that a culture of penance makes it easy for people to have sins forgiven, which can affect one's moral outlook (this is bad, but I can be forgiven) is one problem. An insistence that healthy adult men should live a life of celibacy is another. This leads us to a statistic that reverses social child abuse norms: In general girls are 5 times more likely to be victims of child abuse than boys. Yet in the Catholic Church, studies in America said that 4 out of every 5 cases were boys.......reversing the 'norm' (I hate using 'norm' when talking about child abuse but you get my point). Could it be that in a society that was almost wholly homophobic encourage young gay men to take up a life in the clergy? There'd be no tricky questions from grandma about why you're 40 and still not married. No pressure from friends and family to find yourself a good woman. Clerical celibacy was the ideal excuse. No one bats an eyelid at an unmarried priest!
That would leave a whole lot of frustrated, sexually repressed, gay priests who were ashamed of themselves and their nature. Young, vulnerable, innocent boys in their care were bound to bear the brunt of that at some stage.
Of course, maybe it's just Sam having a pop at religion again. Still, you can't deny unmarried priests in Catholicism have a worse record when it comes to child abuse than, say, happily married vicars in the C of E. Could homophobia be the root cause of a lot of child abuse? I think so. Is that homophobia a lot to do with religious indoctrination? Again, I think it is.
