It's all their fault

"Seize The Day" What possible good could come out of the current pedophilia crisis in the Catholic Church? Well, if you're a right-wing demagogue, you could turn it around into a chance to blame it all on gays. Cardinal Adam Maida of Detroit is quoted saying, "it's not truly a pedophilia type problem but a homosexual type problem." The "Family Research Council" has weighed in with similar logic. Good thinking! Some people never miss a chance, I guess. Presenting a view based in reality, MSNBC today had an article off their home page that takes this assertion apart and exposes the absurdity behind the argument that if the church could just weed out homosexual priests, all their problems would go away.
