Richard Dawkins: I will arrest Pope Benedict XVI

[crazyknight2008]

hey im an athiest but that dosnt make me in human ! i have nothing against religious people (as long as they dont keep on coming to my door),

[phil8888]

atheists' attempt to arrest the pope: FAIL

[rockos414]

@phil8888 Catholic's attempt to help children: FAIL against humanity

[terry4144]

@BibleWinScienceFail whats a fundamentalist atheist?

[BlueAvantiGuy]

The sooner that the gang boss Ratzinger is arrested and his whole criminal organization outlawed the better. They have destroyed far too many lives already and must be prevented from destroying still more.

[eaglewalrus]

In 2007, the Associated Press published data indicating that from 2001 to 2005 the teaching credentials of more than 2,500 educators were revoked following allegations of sexual misconduct. In 2009 there were only 6 credible cases of Catholic clergy abuse reported in the US in a Church of 65 million Catholics. Six too many, but it illustrates that abuse has all but vanished in U.S. dioceses even though Roman Catholic priests are celebate. Can public schools or other faiths make the same claim?

[Daven20005]

@eaglewalrus Clever phrasing but means nothing without like for like.2,500 allegations,not convictions.Define credentials.2,500 out of how many educators?Define educator as in teacher,social worker etc.Define sexual misconduct.Also,define credible as in 2,499 cases against "educators" were not "credible".If religion makes people defend paedophiles then we're all fu*ked."I'm right coz I've read an old book so it must be true"sums up religion for me.I admire the cleverness of your wordplay though

[ALURnswrsRNURpryrs]

Satan has given UNDENIABLE PROOF that our beloved Pope Benedict and the Holy Mother church is Jesus' church. By using an athiest such as Richard Dawkins to attack the Pope, he in his pride, made an error. God bless the Roman Catholic Church. Thanks be to God. In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit, AMEN

[RealityGameWorld]

@ALURnswrsRNURpryrs

When are immoral, totalitarian dictators going to learn to keep their asses out of the UK.

[RomanCatholic93]

@alastair78 you wouldnt do me shit come london init. ooo and its nice to see your real colours you homophonic prick

[TheCatholicnproud]

@alastair78

I have no problem with people being Athiest, its a personal choice and if that is what they believe then that is ok by me.

Its all about faith.

You work with Children? i would not let you near any children with that sort of vile talk you dish out plus your a homophobe.

[TheCatholicnproud]

@alastair78

Excuse me, i was baptized Catholic, raised Catholic then lost my faith at 20 year old then found my faith at 25 year old, my own choice, nobody forced it on me. I feel privilaged to be raised Catholic. end of story.

My parents are Scottish actually, my ancestors are Irish and i have family living in Northern Ireland present.

[crestmere]

This is a bad bad idea.

They are only going to inflame tensions against nonbelievers by doing this even if they have a legitimate case.

[nemirn]

@crestmere

How is that a bad thing?

Please elaborate....

This is the reason Islam will take over the world. Christianity is disintegrating.

[TheCatholicnproud]

@alastair78

Oh my days, i've heard it all now you eedjit... a Homosexual is someone that is attracted to the same gendar as in Adults.

A pedophile is someone that is attracted to a child. abuse of girls and boys is called pedophilia not homosexuality.

You need to understand the difference, that comment is disgusting a racist againts gay people, insinuating that because they are homosexual then they are pedophiles.

Anti-Catholic and a homophobe, your parents must be proud *clap, clap*

[TheCatholicnproud]

@alastair78

So you are actually saying that us Catholics feed the poor but there is a catch to it.. Get real, most of the third world countries are Muslim and i don't see the wealthy arabs running to feed them so don't even go there.

[TheCatholicnproud]

@alastair78

You are a disgusting wee thing. Glad to see your parents did a good job at raising you. If you want to comment then do it like an adult and not a foul mouthed child.

''Do i believe in God'' i think my user name answers that question.

[amaqula]

Lets not forget all the disgusting atheist paedophiles who travel to poor nations to molest the vulnerable children there! And not a whisper about it from anybody!!  Anyone suspect a cover up?! I do! It's one rule for Catholic priests and another for atheists! Disgusting people!

ONLY A CATHOLIC STATE WILL RESIST GOVERNMENT PLANS FOR YOUR DEMOGRAPHIC WIPEOUT AND ISLAMISATION!

[RomanCatholic93]

@alastair78 i would love you to say this in my face you wanker

[indignant99]

@RomanCatholic93

Okay. FUCK YOU IN YOUR FACE.

[RomanCatholic93]

The British Government wont even dare attempt to arrest the pope his to much of an influential person to arrest and if you do, relations to other country's would be strained and there would be riots in the streets by Catholics. This would never happen and it makes me laugh that stupid atheist asshole can dare think that they can arrest my pope. Deus lo vult GOD WILLS IT

[TheCatholicnproud]

@RomanCatholic93

The Pope is not above the law, he has broken the trust and hidden cases of abuse or rather just push them to one side. He is a disgrace to our Church and you will be surprised to just how many faithful Catholics think the same.

He is supposed to be a role model, a leader and teacher but all that means nothing to me now because he has showed his true colours.

Step down noe Benedict or you will see the flock scattered.

Shame on you ratzinger!!!!!

[RomanCatholic93]

@TheCatholicnproud

I understand were your coming from but no pope in history has ever been arrested and we shouldnt let it happen in are life time. he could step down but arrested no chance.

[gerjaison]

I agreed, any cover up of pedophilia and/or sexual harassment at any level in any organizations i.e. normal citizens, politician, celebrities or religious groups in a civilized and secular society is ILLEGAL, and should be brought to justice within the laws!

Otherwise the laws shall have no grounds and other people will use this (religion in this case) as necessarily pathways for more pedophilia and sexual harassment!

[kanenkitten]

I'll give you one problem with Dawkins' argument.

The Pope is a head of state (which Dawkins failed to take into account) and according to British law he is exempt from arrest

[indignant99]

@kanenkitten WRONG!

[kanenkitten]

It's true mate. Dawkins seems to have overlooked that the pope is a head of state

[Dwicker64]

Civilization will not attain perfection until the last stone from the last church falls on the last priest. (Emile Zola) Pedophilia has always been a culture in the Catholic Church.

[godlessmessiah]

A relative(uncle) of mine was molested by a preist when he was a child.

In his later years, at around 55-60 he died from HIV contracted from the preist,which eventually consumed him.

That part of the family was deeply catholic and his mother never went to a church after that for the rest of her life.

[ubersteigen]

On December 19th!? This is going to be my best birthday ever! HAHA! Take that evil bastard down!!!

[madness008]

I hope they pull it off but seems unlikely

[Ebuverthebicepcurler]

DO IT DO IT DO IT!!!

[jameswp266]

Excellent video.

[inverBM]

You and other atheists dont give a damn about abused children OR justice,you;re just plain anti-catholic! Hypocrite!!

[LozTheAtheist]

@inverBM Being an 'ex-catholic' I heard stories about child molestation a lot, I never took them seriously, but perhaps some of the parishioners were actually telling the truth. It makes me sick to think that anyone would abuse a child.

I contribute to save people's lives, and to think someone who claims to be 'religious' and doing such disgusting acts is wicked and they deserve punishment.

[LozTheAtheist]

Pt 2

Now, remove Atheist from my channel name, many would not have a problem with this video, its because I no longer believe in any of the supernatural beings that people start to have issues with me, please dont think for a second this video is to glorify atheism, some of my friends on here are theists.

[quezcatol]

@LozTheAtheist actually some of the "molested" was age 16-19 and it makes me wonder if some of these prieste and "molested" wasnt just gay.

Now a hidden closet gay who get busted at age 17 or 18 living at home rather probably say he was "molested" then having gay sex.

[2010Jedimaster]

@inverBM You dont know Loz very well.

[joshkarandora]

@inverBM

OK, let's pretend your straw man argument is correct.

Atheists don't care about children.

How is the Catholic Church in anyway justified by your statement?

In this specific case, how is being Anti-Catholic wrong?

How is calling the Church out on this crime hypocritical?

Do Atheists knowingly protect child molesters to protect Atheism?

We are actually demanding real justice for these children. The Pope himself is going to have to be held accountable for his actions.

This is Justice.

[TreeSquid006]

@inverBM I'm disgusted you would even make this claim. Mr. Dawkins and Hitchens are standing up for the welfare of raped and sodomized children, and you call it a publicity stunt. If Dawkins and Hitchens don't fight for the children who have been abused, who will? I assure you, it won't be the priests or bishops or popes, because they're don't care about the victims, they want to sweep it under the rug. Kudos to Richard and Christopher for showing the religious what real morals are.

[rockos414]

@inverBM Where is your sense of justice? Why are you not offended and concerned for these children? Why aren't you offended your catholic church did nothing, but cover this up? I care deeply for these children, and I am disgusted with the Church's involvement. The difference between me and you; I don't need a God or afterlife to tell me to care. I care already.

[Wolfboy2012]

@inverBM dude we atheists do care about kids and we don't support chil abuse we're against it.

[GodandJesus4U]

Wow Loz, you have been very busy. I agree, the catholic church need to take a good look at themselves, I agreed with everything you said, Loz not only are your science videos fantastic, but your education in other areas is very good too. Nothing but a thumb up video. One last thing, I am not keep on Richard Dawkins.

[TheCatholicnproud]

Pope Benedict should step down and punished for the cover-up of the abuse cases.

Step down down Benedict so our Church can hopefully begin to put back the pieces you and the pedophile priests have broken.

Shame on you!!

[LozTheAtheist]

@TheCatholicnproud I agree, he should not have covered up this disgraceful act! One can only feel sorry for what the victims are going through. Thanks for your comment. Loz

[Enigmatik691]

@TheCatholicnproud Shut up idiot

[StuartHaitchXbox]

i hope this works out, thanks for keeping me up to date Loz =)
