Does the Pope support human rights?
I'm in a bit of a debacle with someone at my college. I sent a letter to my local paper which was then published, and it regarded the Pope's visit to Britain. I essentially said that the Pope had fallen short in the promotion of homosexual equality, feminism and sexual health. This gentleman said the Pope was involved in some huge Human Rights meeting a while ago? I'm not sure what it involved, but I don't believe it detracts from my original point.

I've heard that the Pope is involved in some worthy causes, but if that's true, it does not buy him a license to crap all over other human rights issues in the name of his superstitious dogma or to protect the image of the Catholic Church at the cost of honesty.Lozzer wrote:I'm in a bit of a debacle with someone at my college.

What I've found with a few discussions I've had lately is this self-satisfaction that people express with their proffessed open mindedness. In realty it ammounts to wilful ignorance and intellectual cowardice as they are choosing to not form any sort of opinion on a particular topic. Basically "I don't know and I'm not going to look at any evidence because I'm quite happy on this fence."

The Pope being at some human rights meeting is like propaganda.Robert_S wrote:I've heard that the Pope is involved in some worthy causes, but if that's true, it does not buy him a license to crap all over other human rights issues in the name of his superstitious dogma or to protect the image of the Catholic Church at the cost of honesty.Lozzer wrote:I'm in a bit of a debacle with someone at my college.

The pope being at a human rights meeting is as indicative of a committment to human rights as a woman with a burqa on at a nudist camp is indicative of nudism.
