Now Go For The Big Fish

I am very sorry for anyone who deserves a payout from the Archdiocese of Los Angeles because of sexual abuse by priests. It will be interesting, as it always is, to see how many career criminals and general ne’er-do-wells profit from this having never mentioned any such abuse in the ostensibly intervening decades, but there we are.

When are real victims going to sue the sex education industry, over to which these matters were handed on the unchallenged assumption that Catholicism did not posses the intellectual resources necessary to deal with such things, simply because the orthodox Catholic view included, and includes, the view that sexual relations between men and adolescent boys (which is what we are discussing here) is morally wrong and deeply damaging? By contrast, the sex education industry held, and holds, that such relations are harmles, if not positively beneficial.

That is why someone like Peter Tatchell can still go about campaigning for practically every act that has brought shame to the Church to be made perfectly legal, by the simple expedient of lowering the age of consent to 14. In the metropolitan political-media circles in which he moves, everyone behaves as if this were already the case, just as they behave as if cocaine were perfectly legal.

As to the sex education industry, those interested in mounting class actions should contact Dr Judith Reisman (who describes her own position as “not religious”): jareisman@surewest.net
