But in this case the bbc is merely reporting. Of course Jeff is correct about “idealogies”, of which religion is only a subset. But in this case the bbc is merely reporting.

Sure, religions have always sustained themselves by despicable means. Jeff, if you look at the video you will know. It is plain to see that it reports facts, and not opinions. Whether the reporters who put it together have their own bias, that is another matter. One thing stays clear: the church has no interest in fighting its pervert priests, but only in hushing things up. And so it does. Cheers, T. Hello Riqie,

it’s been a while! Sure, religions have always sustained themselves by despicable means.

To your comment I propose a variation to be able to account for the past 200 years. The purpose of ideology, BOTH religious and secular, is to deceive the masses and, yes, protect the powerful. After seeing a string, rythmic pounding, of bad news don't we all start thinking things are rotten, that there is a conspiracy or that the world is falling apart? Reading and seeing the headline news and especially watching in-depth reports we are passive. Just how do we check the sources? Our emotions are easily manipulated by the agendas of others that make and manipulate the news. Those "others" are humans, even if they are of the BBC. So I ask: BBC video truthful? Anti-catholic propaganda? Just asking. I don't have a clear cut position. Hi Riqie. To your comment I propose a variation to be able to account for the past 200 years.
