hmm... very few pedophile priests...

Well, in all fairness, according to this source there could be as few as 5,000 accused since 1950....or maybe it is 10,000... Somewhere around 5% of priests in the US.

CofA8: 2010 (PippiLeaks): 6000 is number of Pedophile Priests in U.S. Catholic Church since 1950. Found so far. And still counting

Antonin Scalia, who died this month, after nearly three decades on the Supreme Court, devoted his professional life to making the United States a less fair, less tolerant, and less admirable democracy. Fortunately, he mostly failed. Belligerent with his colleagues, dismissive of his critics, nostalgic for a world where outsiders knew their place and stayed there, Scalia represents a perfect model for everything that President Obama should avoid in a successor.....

Antonin Scalia brought his own brand of hate to the court and he was poison to tolerance and freedom.

From the article:

He pioneered “originalism,” a theory holding that the Constitution should be interpreted in line with the beliefs of the white men, many of them slave owners, who ratified it in the late eighteenth century.

Antonin Scalia: Looking Backward

Scalia was Ronald Reagan's biggest mistake.

Republican nightmare:

"After successfully thwarting Obama's attempts to put a more moderate voice on the Supreme Court, President-Elect Bernie Sanders has nominated Barack Obama as the next Justice. His swift confirmation is expected when the newly elected senate convenes in January."

​

Be careful what you wish for.

Scalia did not invent originalism. He may have ignited a more widespread usage of the term, but criminy, that journalist is no journalist.

On the limits of tribunal jurisdiction, Thomas Jefferson considered the Constitution’s application amid the context of history, the Federalist Papers, and the spirit of the American Revolution. In a letter to Judge William Johnson, he said, “On every question of construction, [let us] carry ourselves back to the time when the Constitution was adopted, recollect the spirit manifested in the debates, and instead of trying what meaning may be squeezed out of the text, or invented against it, conform to the probable one in which it was passed.”

Historic context counts, but don't forget that the writers of The Constitution couldn't live up to the ideals they were putting on paper.

They compromised away the concept of "Liberty and Justice for All" for the profitability of human slavery. That's a pretty big compromise.

Doing the math, that's about 91 per year.

Well, then. Maybe only 100 new pedophile priests per year in the USA! With an example like that, it is an enigma why Catholics are the fastest declining religious membership in the country!
