well, actually...it wouldn't be the first time that someone paid lip service to a religion or deity while deliberately committing a crime...I grew up in a non-Catholic religious school, and saw less severe forms of such depravity on a regular basis without the camoflauge of 'tradition'...is a flagrant criminal actually deserving of less hostility than a cold and dishonest one?

of course, the parents could just be religious-reading-impared dummies that can't figure out when they're being swindled into phony religious beliefs because some twit in charge wants to hear himself talk or have a new excuse to bilk money out of suckers. (selling of indulgences, anyone?)
