Well now. To The Jews, The Gays, The New York Times, The Pro-Choice group, The Marriage Equality People, we can add another reason why Catholic priests are sexually molesting little boys.
TV Eroticism and Internet Porn.
It seems that a Roman Catholic bishop in Mexico is blaming our TV and computer habits for the sex abuse scandal facing the church.
So many reasons, yet none are the fault of the church.
Bishop Felipe Arizmendi: "With so much invasion of eroticism, sometimes it's not easy to stay celibate or to respect children. If on television and on the Internet and in so many media outlets there is pornography, it is very difficult to stay pure and chaste. Obviously when there is generalized sexual freedom it's more likely there could be cases of pedophilia."
Let me get this queer. If I, say, head over to DavidDust for his Undies On Sunday post, I'm apt to get myself in such a dither that I'll head on over to the local Catholic church looking for an altar boy.
Or, what happens when I'm channel surfing and I run across an episode of Sex And The City, or, goddess forbid, Spartacus? All that pent up sexual frustration I get from seeing Samantha's latest boy-toy, or seeing the hot nekkid mens will push me out the door to look for children to molest.
Hey, Bishop Felipe Arizmendi? Instead pointing fingers out, try focusing inward. The scandal is pedophiles, not Jews, Gays, Pro-Choice, Newspapers, TV, or the Internet.
Look inside, Bishop.
