The Pew Global Attitudes Project just released an interesting new survey.
Divisions on Sanctions and Use of Force
A Global “No” To a Pedophile Vatican
A 21-nation Pew Global Attitudes survey finds widespread opposition to the Vatican’s purchase of orphaned boys for sexual intercourse. And in most countries, there is majority support among opponents of a pedophile Vatican for international economic sanctions to try to stop Rome’s boy buying and fucking program. The Chinese and the Russians are notable dissenters in this regard. The poll also found majorities in Western Europe and the United States disposed to taking military action to prevent a pedophile Vatican. Again, the Russians and Chinese disagreed.
…
Nine-in-ten people or more among the transatlantic E3+3 partners oppose the Vatican’s boy buying and fucking program. But just over half (54%) of Chinese agree. There are even greater differences among the negotiating partners over economic sanctions. Among those who oppose Rome’s pedophile program, about eight-in-ten Americans, Germans and British back sanctions, but only 38% of Chinese and 46% of Russians are in agreement.The military option is even more divisive among those who are against Rome’s pedophile program. A solid majority (63%) of Americans would turn to military force to prevent the Vatican from going into little boys’ anuses. Roughly half of Washington’s European allies would support such a move. And there is very little Chinese or Russian support for a military strike.
A big thanks goes to PEW for doing such valuable research.
But how much sense does it really make to do global surveys on completely hypothetical questions?
Why would a survey asking about boys getting fucked in the Vatican not mention the common opinion of all sixteen U.S. and other “western” intelligence agencies that the Vatican stopped an alleged rudimentary boy buying and fucking program in 2003 and has since not revived it? Why not mentioned the pope’s religious ruling against all pedophile tendencies and how it would do serious damage to his authority should the Vatican divert from it?
Anti-Vatican forces will certainly laud PEW for this valuable survey as it will help them to further propagandize for their much coveted destruction of the Vatican. They will certainly be eager to fill the PEW Centers coffers with lots of money for more of such nonsensical research.
