This memorial was erected a dozen years ago outside the local Catholic church:

 …oddly enough, they don’t have one for victims of pedophile priests.

  1. Please move back to the NYC metro area. I don’t know if they can handle your snark out there. Too many posts like this and you might one day see a fundie Monster Truck crash through your living room or something.

  2. Ah, intolerance… thy name is religion. It isn’t just in NYC or LA that people note the hypocracy within organized religion.

  3. I have absolutely no idea what choice I would make if I found myself in a situation of being pregnant under poor circumstances. The point for me is that I can’t be pregnant, so I must, in all good conscience, support the notion that I can not choose for another person. To believe in a woman’s choice is not to be in either the pro or con camp on the issue of abortion. It is to be realistic and understand that all of us have enough to worry about in making choices for ourselves.

  4. I know. I just selfishly want Chris back. Did I really do that poor a job of hiding it?

  5. Come on, how else can the priests ensure a good supply? Protect your sources.

  6. And I’m tired of people using “snark” (sorry Tom). Let’s all use “nark” from now on.

  7. As you no doubt read Freakonomics you’ll note the uncanny connection between legalised abortion and lower crime rates 16 years later… The thing is, in America, you can be born to a crack mother and end up President. I’m convinced that, if Jesus even existed in the first place and were threatening to come back, we’d probably inadvertently abort him.
