Fr. Thomas J. Reese, S.J., does an excellent job of pointing out the hypocrisy in the article, "Father Polanski Would Go to Jail."
I remain shocked at how much support Mr. Polanski has. Is not what he did a terrible, terrible crime?
His sister-in-law claims that since it was "consensual" (the girl was 13 - not old enough to consent!) it wasn't "really" rape and argues that Polanski won't get a fair trial.
Legal scholar Harvey Weinstein asked "every U.S. filmmaker to lobby against any move to bring Polanski back to the U.S.," because "whatever you think of the so-called crime, Polanski has served his time."
Whoopi Goldberg: "I know it wasn't rape-rape."
Martin Scorsese and Woody Allen are also supporters.
Polanski should go to prison for a very, very long time. Along with every other rapist. That's justice.
But Justice, despite her artistic depiction, is not blind. What a crazy, messed up world we live in.
Holy Guardian Angels, pray for us.

I'm actually surprised that Father Reese got this one right on the mark (knowing that he's pro-abort)! Good job for him!
Now, if he could actually come back to the Faith and convert so that he wouldn't be a hypocrite by thinking that a faithful Catholic can support abortion. That would be the greatest turn-around of them all!

Amen! I agree completely. It's a shame when even priests don't uphold the Catholic faith.
