 Con  Pro A church can be cruel because while it is incapable of thinking, it can have suffering occur without stopping it. Con agrees. |

Con In further support of my statement I cite the instance of the aftermath of the first Rock Mass held in Rome on 27th April 1966. In response to the outcomes of Vatican II to be more appealing to young people three Italian rock bands were invited by the Catholic Church to perform the mass. Although it was an enormous hit with young people, due to the media outcry afterwards the Vatican took steps that destroyed the careers of those bands including excommunication. Organisations such as the church can think because the organisation is its leadership, in this case the Vatican. It is the leadership that caused the destruction of the young bands who were only responding to an invitation by the church representatives. Pro Con has yet to rebut anything I said and furthermore is supporting Pro's case. Mistake or not, a concession is a concession. |

Con As no one has actually come out against the statement as part of the debate I will address round to those who have made a comment but not as part of the debate. Isabelneussl states that she doesn't thin the Catholic Church is cruel but that the services are boring. In 1966 an attempt was made by the Church to be more appealing to young people. This was done by holding the first Rock Mass in Rome. It was the churches reaction to sectors within the church and the media that is was many years before it was attempted gain. There are some churches that still hold Rock Masses (I believe even some jazz and country & western ones) but the arguments still persist about sacred music. Yes there is also some corruption that is being weeded out but is that due to the Church's own initiatives or due to media exposition. The statement is hardly bigoted when I have suffered due to actions taken by the Vatican. The comparison between the Atheist Party is not relevant because I know from personal experience the power of the Catholic Church. |
