"Wages of Celibacy"

NY Times 02/28/'13

The new Pope must revise dogma on celibacy. It's probably OK for monastics but for the parish priests it can be the proverbial "Road to hell -paved with good intentions"

Something's Rotten in Rome


It's the Vatican and Benedict has inadvertently exposed the mess. The Gay Cabal has been operating for centuries and the priests' abuse of children is nothing new either. omerta has been traditiom in Italy for centuries and has helped the Vatican Cardinals conceal the homosexual cabal for centuries. According to tradition, Omertà is a code of silence, according to one of the first Mafia researchers Antonio Cutrera, a former officer of public security, that seals lips of men even in their own defense and even when the accused is innocent of charged crimes. Cutrera quoted a native saying first uttered (so goes the legend) by a wounded man to his assailant: "If I live, I'll kill you. If I die, I forgive you." If you create an institution where men are the sole occupants of the executive positions and women are seen as only fit for menial tasks in the organization, where only the men are permitted to wear the silk and satin, is it surprising that many of the Princes of the Church are homosexual and that they band together in order to achieve power and protection? That some celibate priests would find sexual stimulation and satisfaction with their juvenile parishioners shouldn't surprise us as much as the deliberate shielding of the predators by their superiors does. Benedict was discovered to have been "negligent" with some priestly predators in Germany and his was obviously not the first or last cover-up in Church history. Rumors of priests and Bishops fathering children with female parishioners and nuns have been circulating for centuries. Even Popes have sired a few bastards- at least one with his own daughter. Now the hypocrisy has been exposed. What will follow? A renewed, chaste and pure institution? And flying pigs as well?

The News from Montana is Really Bad


Drug enforcement is big business, employing thousands of people here and abroad. That's a lot of jobs- most of them with good salaries and government pensions. It's going to be very hard to switch these folks to a different career path and give up what they've got now and all the power that goes with it. WHO STANDS TO GAIN FROM THE LEGALIZATION OF MARIJUANA? Cancer victims and thousands of Americans with medical conditions that can be effectively treated with cannabis. WHO STANDS TO LOSE? The Liquor and pharmaceutical companies, the drug cartels in Mexico and Columbia and the srug dealers on the streets of our cities and towns. WHOSE SIDE IS OBAMA ON? He gave away the store to the drug companies in negotiating Obama care. Did he give them marijuana too?

Opinion Roundup: Does The Petraeus Affair Matter? : NPR

It takes very little to attract a monkey's attention. Often a bit of tinfoil or a bright leaf will do the trick. The mass media are the monkeys of the 21st century and you've got your Fox monkeys, MSNBC monkeys and all the rest of the busy little media monkeys dashing around, looking for more distraction to show the millions of spectator monkeys.

Can't we stop monkeying around?

Obama And Congress Must Tackle Impending Financial Crisis Immediately

Now is the time for every citizen to demand that their elected representatives in Washington work out a solution to the budget crisis they have created now, before it's too late. How can we get a petition going while we all deluge congress with e-mail and phone calls. Will OWC participate and if not, why not?
