And by the way, I am not making light of the issue of priest sexual abuse. Not sure I've mentioned this before, but the attorney I work for is a Diocesan attorney. We are heavily involved in several abuse cases (not representing the accused perpetrators; representing the Bishop). I'm very familiar with the current climate of lawsuits and responses by the clergy.

The legal issues are interesting from an objective standpoint, but the personal issues are heartbreaking. I do have to say that many people are jumping on the bandwagon and blaming all of their fucked up lives on relatively minor incidents. But not all.

And I still think the cartoon is creepy! (and duh, a robe. just goes to show I'm not Catholic).
