Attack of the Theocrats!
Haha, very short article. Right to the point.
I think my greatest fear with this whole ordeal is that nothing will change. After all, they've been responsible for some really nasty stuff in the past, and here they still are. Even in the modern world where religion now plays a lesser role in people's lives, it seems to me to be a daunting feat to ever get away with trying to get away with a trial on these people because of their fan club. Celebrities get off of the hook easy. And in this case, the law is dealing with something far scarier than a regular celebrity. It is up against religious celebrities. Something in my gut tells me that they might get off without too much fuss. I reeeeally hope I'm wrong.
