Debate on the Catholic Church
Here is the first part of the five-part series of videos. Each speaker gives a very unique and compelling presentation, making for entertaining and informative viewing.

Stephen Fry gives us a great way of thinking about the church’s preoccupation with sex and behavior thereof:
[The Catholic Church] is obsessed with sex… The only people who are obsessed with food are anorexics and the morbidly obese… and that, in erotic terms, is the Catholic Church in a nutshell
Such an outcome is almost inevitable in an organization where, as Fry points out, virginity is institutionalized to an unnatural and twisted degree. Incidentally, in preparing this post I just did a Google search for “catholic church” and the first item that came up (I am not making this up) is a recent article in the Belfast Telegraph about the ongoing priest sex abuse scandal.
