"Being..."Chasing down" is one take.<br /><br />"Being solicited by a growing number of victims of the Catholic Church" is another take. Fer gawd's sake, does Polonious seriously believe that journalists "chase" the evils done by priests? <br /><br />You've gone way above standard duties today unstitching the blathering doggerel of the grumpy old feller today DP.

So, unlike an organisation that is ordained by God, supervised by God, has its members talk to God and be spoken to in return by God, the Catholic Church is just like any other organisation - like the ABC for instance - that has no requirement whatsoever to obey God's clearly stated morality, or to act in the service of a higher cause.<br /><br />His inclusion of the Anglican Church - which does not now and never did have God's approval - is clearly indicative of the very secular status he considers the Catholic Church to have<br /><br />But then with our Prattling P, there's always the words that McKenzie-Murray used for Ellis: "<i>Perhaps he saw his rhetoric in the service of some higher truth</i>."<br /><br />Higher than the Catholic Church, anyway.<br /><br />"<i>If only there was a lord, who had designed a hell, surely Polonius would be assigned to an outer level</i> ...
