  • There is a difference between wanting to deal with things internally without involving authorities, and actively promoting pedophilia. But I'm not here to go to bat for Catholics, I'm just pointing out the difference.

  • I don't mind you asking except that you are missing my point, which is that doctors have less patient confidentiality than therapists. I say this to contradict the original assertion that doctors report things, so priests should too, which is faulty logic. Comparing therapists to priests would be a better analogy in this context.

  • More the point is that therapists don't have the same obligations as doctors. Therapists can keep confidentiality of things that doctors aren't allowed to. The guy i responded to was comparing priests to doctors, but a better comparison would be comparing them to therapists.

  • Yeah you are right. There have been a couple others, but quite a few attempts to ban various parties. I don't quite understand the system and it's possible that banning a party there isn't near as big of a deal as it seems to me. If a party were banned in the united states, it would be very alarming. I think the only party ever banned was the communist party in 1950s, but even that is no longer really in effect.

  • Who gets to decide who is a fascist and therefore doesn't deserve to participate in democracy? What is the criteria for not deserving a voice? How do you define fascist? Maybe I'm cynical, but if you can eliminate popular political opposition by branding them as something, that's a lot of motivation to brand them.

  • Advertising, marketing, and the stock market are the worst aspects of capitalism, and the system could be improved dramatically with heavy restrictions on all of those. Yeah it would shrink the economy, but the new steady state would be much better. Less waste, better stuff.
