I think you'll find that the Emperor Hadrian was playing the long game. These days, vanishingly few Scotchmen are heading south, and many of those who are already polluting England with their left-footed gingerness are returning to their midge-infested bogland. It can only be a matter of time before the Scotch rebuild Hadrian's Wall (at their own expense).

This exactly parallels the Mexicans paying for The Donald's Wall.

Dear Miss Joanna,


Did you not read the papers yesterday? In the Godless UK you are now called a racist for calling people smelly. Please be careful when you speak of the manky Scots gits from above the wall. Also be very careful when dealing with the Irish. They will either steal the eyes out of your head or blow up your local bandstand.

Canadian Catholics confess their priests can't be trusted with children:

Montreal priests to be prohibited from being alone with children


It's about damn time. And it only took $18 million from the parishioners to pay legal fees for pedophile priests for them to think of it.

Every time I read about all the crime in the Catholic church I thank Jesus for me being a member of Landover Baptist. No clergy in our church has ever been accused of wrong doing of any kind. Our long history of identifying and calling out the sin of others helps our clergy and all of us who are members avoid sin.

They say that the fish rots from the head, and in Austria, a fish head who is one of the top advisers of His Unholiness has been charged with sexual assault.

Australian Cardinal, a Top Adviser to Pope, Is Charged With Sexual Assault

SYDNEY, Australia — Australia’s senior Roman Catholic prelate, and one of Pope Francis’ top advisers, has been charged with sexual assault, the police in the Australian state of Victoria said on Thursday.

* * *

The charges were served on the cardinal’s legal representatives in Melbourne. Commissioner Patton said there were multiple complainants, but refused to provide further details about them, including their ages.

There's a huge mystery.

Just as Americans finish celebrating their Independence Day, some in the Vatican are celebrating their independence from Jesus.

It's hard to imagine the Vatican "police" breaking up a homer orgy, perhaps they're just throwing a hissy fit because they weren’t invited.

I'm waiting for the Trump State Department to issue travel warnings to the Vatican for all Americans.

Vatican police have allegedly broken up a homosexual orgy

Staff writersNews Corp Australia Network

VATICAN police have allegedly busted up a homosexual orgy in an apartment that belongs to the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith — a department whose duties include dealing with clerical sexual abuse.

Italian newspaper Il Fatto Quotidiano published the claims that alleged the occupant of the apartment is the secretary of cardinal Francesco Coccopa*l*merio, the head of the Pontifical Council for Legislative texts and a crucial adviser to Pope Francis.

Coccopa*l*merio is said to have been recommended his aide for a promotion to bishop but this alleged incident and a period spent allegedly recovering from a two drug overdoses are likely to affect that.

The allegations come after George Pell was charged over sex offence claims last week.

Cardinal Pell was appointed to clean up the Holy See’s finances as the Pope moves to make a number of reforms that have angered conservatives.

. . . .

“Resistance to the Pope is growing,” a Vatican source told The Times.

“We have seen five troubling *stories emerge in a matter of a few days. They have created turbulence. There’s not going to be a schism, but the Pope has lost credibility in the eyes of many.”

Re: Roman Catholic sex scandal of the day

Each new case seems to be getting old, but we here at Landover Baptist follow these so you don't have to.

The brethren of buggery cathylicks are at it again, this time on the small island of Guam - but in a big way. Unfettered from a little competition from other churches (Guam is 85% cathylick), the Roman pederasty has a new twist - taking over the Boy Scouts and giving merit badges for "servicing" the clergy and doing "penance".

Those transubstantiated wafers are taking on a whole new meaning - body and seed.

Shattered faith: Nearly 100 sex abuse suits against Catholic priests rock island of Guam
Haidee V Eugenio, Steve Limtiaco and Dana M Williams, Pacific Daily News Published 4:00 a.m. ET Aug. 4, 2017 | Updated 11:06 p.m. ET Aug. 4, 2017

HAGÅTÑA, Guam — It started off innocently: a 15-year-old boy helping out at San Miguel, a local church named for Archangel Michael, the leader of all angels.

There was yardwork and cleaning, followed by invitations to the rectory to eat and watch TV. Soon, there were offers to drink sacramental wine and watch X-rated movies. Then sexual assault.

More than 50 times over three years.

By the parish priest.

Those jarring allegations come from a recent lawsuit claiming assault from 1985 to 1988. It is one of nearly 100 lawsuits that describe rampant child sexual abuse by some of Guam’s most revered men: the Catholic clergy.

An investigation by the USA TODAY Network's Pacific Daily News unearthed allegations of decades of assault, manipulation and intimidation of children reared on this remote, predominantly Catholic U.S. territory.

. . . .

The children's steadfast faith in the island's priests made them vulnerable, the lawsuits say. Accuser William Payne's parents "had raised him to honor and respect the priest, and told him that he had to do what the priest told him to do," according to his lawsuit. He had "been instilled with the belief that clergy are never wrong, and that the clergy were like Jesus.”

The lawsuits and other public statements collectively claim that priests preyed on children for nearly four decades, with allegations of wrongdoing reaching the highest levels of the Guam Catholic hierarchy.

Archbishop Anthony Apuron, 13 Guam priests and others, including a Catholic schoolteacher, a Catholic school janitor and a Boy Scout leader, are alleged to be sexual predators. Guam's Archdiocese of Agana is a defendant in 96 lawsuits. The complaints detail alleged attacks from 1955 through 1994 and claim some religious leaders knew of the exploitation and ignored it. One retired priest, who admitted in an affidavit that he sexually abused 20 or more boys, still receives a monthly stipend from the archdiocese. The accusations also ensnare the Boy Scouts of America, where that priest also served as a scoutmaster. The scouting group is named as a co-defendant in 52 lawsuits.

. . . .

Do what the priests say

Catholicism has long been an integral part of life on this Western Pacific island.

“Since the 17th century, Catholic churches have been the center of village activities,” proclaims the Guam Visitors Bureau on a website describing the culture of its native Chamorro population.

About 85% of its residents are Catholic, populating 26 parishes on an island just 30 miles long.

Extreme reverence for church leadership, paired with Guam's remote location, left abused children geographically trapped with few places to go for help, says Joelle Casteix, a volunteer regional director of the support group Survivors Network of those Abused by Priests, known as SNAP.

Priests used their clout to gain access to the boys, as well as to keep their victims quiet, according to many of the lawsuits. One accuser, described in his lawsuit only as S.A.F., said that in 1975 Brouillard told him, "If you tell anyone, no one will believe you because I am a priest."

In some cases, they were told that sexual acts were “penance” or were needed to earn Boy Scout badges, according to lawsuits.

The Boston Globe is doing a report about priests who are fathers but refuse to admit to it and do not give support to their children.
Many priests have gone bad. Real bad.

There is a difference between the message and the messenger.
The postman brings you a letter from your dear cousin. The letter contains good news about your cousin's family. However, the postman has just robbed a bank, raped his daughter, beaten up his boss and killed his wife. The postman leaves the message in your mailbox. Should you accept the letter from your cousin or should you throw it away because the postman was an evil man?

Your cousin did not chose the mailman.
You Church has chosen every single faggot priest there is, abusers of children, pansies, etc.
The message of God is the Bible, not the Catholic cult.


So yes I agree keep the message and ditch the messenger. Ditch it, burn it, stone their members, kill 'em all.

Wait, wait, wait. . . Did the postman kill his boss's wife or his own wife? More importantly, how did he get all that done in a single day and still finish his route in time?

He killed both of them and he did it a few days before he went to work. The letter from your cousin was left in your mailbox.
Do you read the message in the letter from your cousin or not?

And when the rest of the postmen do nothing but cover up for the postman who killed his wife, then see to it that he's relocated (and remarried), and continually deny that there's an endemic, systemic issue despite so many other postmen killing their wives?

Continuing the analogy, granted that it is true that there are bad postmen, but acknowledging that more than 90% are good, should the whole post office be destroyed?I do agree with you that a cleanup is necessary and those found guilty should be jailed for life, if not executed. Execution by hanging seems a bit harsh and may possibly be contrary to charity, so perhaps life in a prison work camp may be more suitable.
