The ever delusional William Donohue of the Catholic League is on another rant blaming gays for the Catholic Church's huge sexual abuse scandal that is becoming increasing a worldwide phenomenon. Now Donohue - who has been well depicted in South Park episodes - has taken out a full page ad in the New York Times (see above) attempting to shift blame from the Pope and Church hierarchy to gays and the New York Times. Never mind that the Vatican operated a worldwide conspiracy of cover ups and shuffling predatory priests from parish to unsuspecting parish. In any other context, such a conspiracy would lead to criminal charges and likely racketeering charges, but somehow in Donohue's crazy world, it's the Vatican and the Church that are the victims.

The reality is that Donohue cannot come to grips with the reality that the institutional church which he has sought to protect is morally bankrupt and that the Church hierarchy - including the Pope - have played the laity for suckers. This link shows a great animated cartoon from the Washington Post that depicts how the Church deals with messengers of the truth.
