Isn't there something inherently wrong with religions that would even suggest to somebody that having a child is wrong and in leading them to conclude that murdering them is the right thing to do before a God?
Just because it's written throughout the OT doesn't make it a particularly good idea.

Reminds me of what happened near where I live a few years ago. A Christian recording artist attempted to have her husband murdered so she could collect life insurance to have enough money to produce her next Christian album...unbelievable but truth is sometimes stranger than fiction.

I would say this does not prove there is something inherently wrong in religion. Clearly what he did was against his religion. I would say your posting shows that there is inherently something right with religion, because you react so strongly to aberrations. It also shows there is an inherent moral faculty in people, that they all - religious or atheist - find this action repulsive.

I would suspect that drawing a conclusion about religions in general on the basis of the behavior on this one particular priest might be statistically invalid.

i think it's very sad that this man broke his committment to God and especially murdered his son. this man mad a committment to GOd and became a priest. if he wanted to have children, he could easily have left. there are also married CAtholic priests with children.

just as twisted as Fred Phelps standing at the graveside of our fallen military members yelling about homosexuality - no more and no less.

America elects head of Haliburton Oil company to presidency. How twisted is that?

Don't act like others don't do it as well.
