I'm reminded of the old aphorism, "it takes one to know one"...

You would think that after all the violent acts toward children that the cat-licks have been involved in, they wouldn't bring it up in any context. I guess you'd be wrong.

Good for homeboy dying of a heart attack though. Too bad he wasn't busted for some sorta child abuse thing first.

I think a lot of kids are also happy to be a Catholic until they can think for themselves as well.

Well now I'm certain we should have just left our daughter in that third-world orphanage. She weighed 14 lbs. when we got her at 12 months of age, but I'm sure she would have gained a bit more over the years, although she never would have had to undergo the "moral violence" of achieving median height and weight or to explain the tragedy of having two dads to anyone. Oh, and of course, in her country of birth she wouldn't have become the Christian that she is today.

Just another bigot we don't have to deal with.

My mother taught me to only speak good of the dead. Cardinal Trujillo is dead. Good.
