  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.
  • We hope the site problems here are now solved, however, if you still have any issues, please start a ticket in Contact Us

Hello, Dakota.

Welcome. I see you're newer here than I am. :D

It has been discussed, maybe still is?, on the Current Events Forum.

As for your question, I think that it is only right that any person convicted of any crime, take the sentence that the court decides. So, whether he be a Catholic priest, or an atheist, or a Satanist, or a President, if he does a crime, he should be held accountable.

God is not a respecter of persons.

And our jury system should not be either.

this is so horrible...

www catholicnews com/data/stories/c...ns/2003082

i am surprised i didn't hear more about it on the news.

so...what do people think about sending priests convicted of child abuse to prison?
If they have committed a crime, then they go to prison. The prison is to take care that people who may be in danger of assult be kept from those who wish to kill certain inmates. Simple LOGIC.
