The Catholic Herald (UK and Eire) describes a humble and
polite
request for an apology as a "demand" and offers a defensive
response,
"we do not need to apologise", as though Catholics are
somehow under
attack which is manifestly not true.
Fortunately the only response that matters is the response
from the
Vatican.
Well, gee, here in the United States we spent an entire
election
talking about the war. The Vietnam war, that is.
Yup. It nicely distracted everyone from the war that's going
on right
now.
I guess it worked so well that they thought it would be a
good idea
if the distracted us all from the religious conflict in
America with
some nonsense about what took place 700 years ago.
Not that "history" or "Facts" matter any (just ask maff), but
just so
long as we all lose sleep over what we like to think happened
700 years ago -- instead of what is taking place right now --
than
it's worth it.
If it only happened in the past then you can 'let bygones be
bygones'.
But the Vatican is still practicing terrorism even now. Then
the whole
period is going to be re-examined and the victims and their
estates
are going to be compensated. It's as simple as that.
The victims *and* their estates?
*and or*
By leaving that "and" in there or even mentioning "victims" as a
category, you're still suggesting that there are victims to
compensate.
There aren't. They've been dead for 700 years.
Of course it's all ridiculous. No one's going to awarded a settlement
for something that happened nearly a millennia ago.
Well. It depends on how many people are upset about it and still are.
There're many ways to skin the Cat. Even Al Capone was jailed for tax
evasion.
