The vendetta against Cardinal Pell : Comments

By John Young, published 5/3/2019

I believe he is innocent and that the jury should certainly have brought in a verdict of not guilty.

Daffy

as usual you show an appalling understanding of theology and most other things but you raise an interesting thing by askin
'So what would Saint Jesus have to say about the "religious" and political establishment in which George Pell is a powerful participant?'

Personally I think Jesus would be appalled at the Catholic church and its history. This of course does not make Pell guilty. I am also convinced Jesus would be appalled at the slaughter of unborn babies by heartless godless people

Dear Loudmouth,

Are you really comparing a trial before 12 good citizens who included a church pastor, not one of whom were rejected by Pell's defence team, to phony trials in dictatorships and arbitrary executions?

I hope not because that would be ludicrous.

Now you have not addressed the point I raised about Ridsdale's victims. I recall no DNA sampling being taken, no collaborating witnesses but rather the testimony of victims, yet he was found guilty of abusing over a hundred girls and boys.

Is each of those convictions tainted by virtue of them being decided by only the testimony of the abused?

Do you want Ridsdale released because it was "just hearsay or he-said/he-said"?

And well said Alan B.

Your post at http://forum.onlineopinion.com.au/thread.asp?article=20194&page=0#356935

It must be difficult to recount what you've been through, mate.

The perverse sadism of Holy Men who choose to violate little children.

Daffy Duck,

"Saint Jesus of Galilee who was never ever in any sense a Christian was of course a wanderer..."

here you hit upon a Great theological imponderable, how indeed could Jesus Christ be a follower of Himself?

How could Elizabeth II be a subject of herself?

How could Bill Shorten be a loyal follower of Bill Shorten?

I eagerly await your reply.

plantagenet,

I was merely recounting what the ABC management said about 'Q&A'.

It wasn't me that said that the program wasn't to be taken seriously.
