Your reply is not Latest Breaking News.

She has suffered quite a bit in this life, and brought beauty too. May she find peace and health.

She is a very troubled soul who bravely took on the Catholic Church and and pointed out their crimes LONG before the world wanted to see their perversity and hypocrisy, and she was punished by the public without mercy for telling the truth.

I'm old enough to remember that whole SNL/ripping up a picture of the pope thing. At the time I thought that, while the uproar was way out of proportion to what she did, it was kind of an inappropriate venue, but I should have realized that doing that with a live nationwide audience was exactly appropriate. She risked her entire career to tell the world what she knew.

Everyone who clutched their pearls at the time (including me, sort of) owes her an apology in light of what we've all learned since then.

and crossing over into atheism. I suspected what she was saying was true, since there had been stories for years. This was around the time the BSA was getting hammered, so I have come to suspect all such organizations, especially the virulently homophobic ones, of projecting their own crimes.

:I

She needs medical help, she may be suffering from dementia. I've had relatives just wander off from supervision before and the fear of something happening to them is crippling.

They held it up beside her face and said "Nothing compares to you."
