Because religious figures, particularly christians are fucking enormous hypocrites. And frequently also nonces. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd assume that attitude is worldwide in the Catholic Church. Confidentiality in confession is absolute insofar as I know.

Yes, but I think Australia is amongst the first countries to introduce this legislation, and that has upset the clergy. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Confidentiality in confession is absolute insofar as I know. Yes, but I think Australia is amongst the first countries to introduce this legislation, and that has upset the clergy. I think the priest's choice would be going to jail or getting excommunicated. It would be interesting to see who chose what. Just read that if a confessor told him he'd planted a bomb under the priest's bed, the priest would not be allowed to look before he went to sleep unless it was something he normally did. I'm not a Catholic or any religion but had a Catholic girlfriend for along time and got the impression that most so called absolute rules in Catholicism rules can be swerved around by everyone pretending not to notice. I'm sure most priests will find a way to pass on information about dangerous people if they can't persuade them to hand themselves in. Having to stand up in court and state was said in confessional is a different matter. Edited May 25, 2019 by welshbairn 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trying to rationalise religion and it’s adherents? Good luck with that. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ICTJohnboy Posted May 28, 2019 Share Posted May 28, 2019 Alistair Campbell's been kicked out the Labour Party for voting LibDem in the EU elections. He must be grief stricken by their decision. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NotThePars Posted May 28, 2019 Share Posted May 28, 2019 People seem to think he’ll probably get let back in on a technicality (he disclosed his vote after the polls closed). All the people calling it Stalinism are bringing me grave disappointment when I find out he hasn’t admitted to counter revolutionary crimes and been subsequently purged. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DrewDon Posted May 28, 2019 Share Posted May 28, 2019 Campbell will have known what he was doing when he publicly admitted it. Still, it does make me wonder why the line is drawn at voting, when you look at some of Kate Hoey's Twitter output, for example. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
