I had to listen to this song to keep me from vomiting after reading this article:

Look down at the bottom. Step-father not excommunicated. Because, you know. Raping 9-year-olds is not nearly as bad as abortion. Why that creates more Christians!


Shop as usual.

Abortion in order to not die, I might add. The girl should face death in order to not imperil her soul, says Church.

Well, yeah. That's why you burn people at the stake, so their souls stay pure after they repent under torture.

That's bishops throwing their weight around. The Church allows abortion in life-of-the-mother cases.

Nine years old. My Dollface is 9.
This is like the Abeer Hamza story. The Hamza family matched mine exactly for ages. A little east, and that was US.

I feel sick everytime I think about it. The mother did the right thing. I think she needs to thumb her nose at the Church and take up the local religion that predates Catholic conquest.

Wow. God, just when I thought the Catholic Church would have to really work to become more vile, they were willing to really work for it.

Sadly, I am not surprised. As if the trauma of rape, unwanted pregnancy, and abortion aren't enough.

As fucked up as it is, being excommunicated may be the only good thing to come out of this. The church has proven once again how cold, useless, and hindersome it can be; I wish this young girl and her mother blessings and luck in finding a real source of therapy, support, and solace.
