Wasn't so surprised by the recent clergy pedophile scandal in Dublin. Sickened, saddened, but not surprised.
Nor this Iris Robinson person.
Patrick Sullivan is positively eloquent today, each word as if lit by flame.
Where there is Christianism, there is usually hypocrisy, corruption and abuse. From Haggard to Maciel, from the Vatican to the Swaggarts, from Rove to Limbaugh, the sheer gulf between their public moralism and their private failings is vast. That's because they're human; and they deserve compassion and understanding, the compassion and understanding they always, always deny to others.
