Shameful Media Malpractice and the Catholic Church


1746135_low Who is really lying about sexual
abuse, the Church or the media?

By Selwyn Duke

If the pen is mightier than the sword,
misuse of it can be a murderous act. As my faithful readers know, I’ve
devoted much ink lately to the media abuse scandal — that is, their
abuse of the Truth in reporting on the Catholic Church. Now, it’s not my
practice to fixate on one issue for so long, but determined
propagandists call for determined defenses. And never have I seen the
media so completely abandon proper journalistic standards as they have
with respect to the Catholic Church.

As an example, Christopher Hitchens,
today’s poster boy for militant atheism, has insisted that Pope Benedict
XVI should be arrested for what he claims is complicity in a cover-up
of sexual abuse. And while Hitchens should know better, it’s not
surprising that he would take this view if he truly believes the
nonsense he has been spouting.

    Selwyn Duke is 100% right-on and all literate and civilized human beings should applaud him for his firm stance in defense of simple logic and for his stance against those who obstruct and obfuscate it.
    Although I am not a Roman Catholic, I stand arm-in-arm and toe-to-toe with Selwyn Duke in opposing the MSM’s shameful attack on the Holy Roma Catholic Church (and wholesome Christianity at large). I vociferously condemn the MSM’s facile obsession with this subject when the object of accusation is the Roman Catholic clergy while completely whitewashing similar incidents in society at large and especially with regard to the commonplace abuses by female schoolteachers.
    This faux and disproportionate focus on Roman Catholic accused offenders is a blatant attack on Christianity at large by godless violaters of the eternal doctrines that the Church holds dear.
    This is a contemptable cheap-shot by homosexual activists and their sympathizers who shamefully associate their own sick and deluded proclivities to a valued and valuable institution.
    As for Christopher Hitchens; would it be a surprise to any of us in defense of Selwyn’s article and the Holy Roman Catholic Church what a private investigation into his own proclivities might turn up? I might just pay for such an investigation into this wicked cretin’s ways and means.
    Do you hear that, Mr. Hitchens?

    Im not surprised. The left are masters of manipulation and lies. They have no decency, accountability, integrity, or morality.
    Hitchens is a disgusting individual. His arrogance, ability to argue, or book sales will not impress God.
