Bill Donohue Is At It Again!

Whenever the Catholic Church gets it's ass in a crack you can count on Bill Donohue of the Catholic League to rush to the defense of the church.  Though some would applaud his loyalty, this time his defense is pure unadulterated crap.


Strong words to use against someone?  But oh so true.  Donohue wrote an op-ed piece in the Washington Post recently that focused on the Catholic Church pedophile priest problem.  My problem with that is Mr. Donohue filled it with hate and outright lies.  The primes of his piece is that the problem is not with pedophilia, but with homosexuality.  He blames homosexuals for the whole child molesting thing and he uses lies to support his argument.


First he twists figures mercilessly as he states, "Alfred Kinsey was the first to identify a correlation between homosexuality and the sexual abuse of minors. In 1948, he found that 37 percent of all male homosexuals admitted to having sex with children under 17 years old." 

That is actually not what Kinsey said.  What he asserted in his study was 37 percent of all males had some overt homosexual experience to the point of orgasm, sometime between adolescence and old age.  That's a far cry from Donohue's crap.

My big beef is that the Washington Post published this piece at all.  Next they will be publishing Fred Phelps.
