  Boggles the fucking mind that an elderly white male high ranking Catholic is a sane and solid pick for president considering the current state of things.

  If the founding fathers were still alive, the very idea of this would kill them.

    ha, honestly I think it boggles the mind of anyone who was alive before (the last) Pope Francis.

  Didn’t know he had a degree in mathematics - that’s a fun one to share with my students.

  Thanks!

  Didn’t he threaten to excommunicate priests who turned in child rapists?

    If you’re referring to priests turning in child rapists via breaking the seal of confession, no. Doing so is an automatic excommunication from the Catholic Church, that’s not something he’s instituted.

    This week he did affirm his zero-tolerance policy on not only child abuse within the church, but also any attempts to cover them up.

      If he really had a zero tolerance policy, he’d get rid of the rule that bar priests from turning in child rapists.

        FYI a dokter/psychiatrist is just as banned from exposing a confessed murder or rapist,

        What they do instead is highly encourage you to turn yourself in.

        The reason professional secrecy is so important is because the moment you leave the tiniest gap, no one will trust the profession anymore when processing the guilt of their own actions. Potentially making the problem worse. These people are not well in their head and require treatment, the bar for treatment must be as low and safe as can be.

        I believe Dokters do have a rule when you state the full intention to do harm a person in the near future they have to call law enforcement but i don’t think they need to provide information about the perpetrator if they aren’t the person in danger.

        This may be subject to specific local laws but i always assumed it was modeled after how the church did it, pastors used to act as primitive psychologists.

        That’s not a rule he can get rid of. The seal of confession is a matter of doctrine and divine law and the pope isn’t authorized to overrule god.

        And it’d be a dumbass idea anyway. If a criminal is coming to confession then there is some remorse for what they’ve done, which means that person might be encouraged to turn themselves in. If you started reporting them when they came to confession, it’ll work once or twice and then criminals would just stop going to confession.

  friendly reminder from an athiest; this pope is a good dude and a mathematician, he knows what’s up.

  friendly reminder from someone that doesn’t label himself according to his beliefs in fairy tales: the pope is the ceo of a bigot cult that use fear to manipulate and control people. He’s not a good dude and has a history already of defending fellow cult pedophiles.

  Do you point out that you are an atheist to give credit to your comment? Sad…

    He’s been a very very bad man. Thank you for your attention on this matter.

      The pope? I mean… I’d say pedophiles are worse than “very very bad”, but I can see why you people think it’s just a minor (pun not intended) thing.
