I have no doubt that lots of Scottish protestants are making the best of the chance to rub the priests faces in it .

BUT There are facts thousands of them ! and the Pope is guilty of extraordinary measures to cover them up .

I'd like to think that nobody around here still identifies themselves by religion. I know they often do in some poorer areas, but I'm lucky enough to live in a decent area where sectarianism isn't prevalent at all. This city has been damaged too much by religious divides and too many people have lost their lives over sectarianism; even today a handful of idiots still assume that a Celtic fan is Catholic, or a Rangers fan is Protestant. After Rangers won the league last year, a Celtic fan was knifed and died in hospital. According to some accounts the attackers called him "Catholic scum". I know it's still a bit of a problem, but we try our best not to identify based on religion.


I wonder, though, are the priest's who defend the Pope just as bad as he is? I mean, they are meant to dish out moral guidance to their congregations. These people are, whether we like it or not, providing moral advice to an awful lot of people. If they are saying the Pope has done no wrong, that's what Catholics are going to start thinking. This is something far more dangerous than a moral squabble over the Pope's involvement: it's a path that could lead to renewed religious discrimination. There are so many newspapers printing what clergy think of this but I am yet to read an essay in any paper written by a non-Catholic.
