      We all owe Sinead O'Connor an apology.https://twitter.com/danielradosh/status/1029923751293603845 …

      When was the first time you heard that the Catholic Church was teeming with child abuse? If you're my age, it was Sinead O'Connor on SNL. She was almost universally treated like a crazy person who had said something bizarre and unforgivable. pic.twitter.com/5ZmlNBK8Ex

      One interesting thing is that people were mad at O'Connor for going after Pope John Paul II, who got overwhelmingly good press (largely for Cold War reasons, I think). But history will say O'Connor was closer to the mark.

          Why does a Canadian Indian feel capable of speaking on matters of the Catholic Church?

          There are many good ones but what's scary is the bad ones are hidden in plain sight and you won't know it's a bad one until it's too late. Hard to trust anyone under those circumstances. They need to think long and hard about what to do. This is a huge issue!

          It'll never happen. Conservatives seem congenitally incapable of ever admitting a mistake.
