It's apparently not hard to do:
Yesterday morning, the Richard Dawkins Foundation for Reason and Science Facebook page posted
the following bombshell: "According to the new laws, revealing or receiving confidential Vatican information is now punishable by up to two years in prison, while newly defined sex crimes against children carry a sentence of up to twelve years. Because all sex crimes are kept confidential, there is no longer a legal way for Vatican officials to report sex crimes."
This was startling stuff, and of course it wasn't long before Dawkins' devoteees began to chime in. One fan compared the Vatican to Islamic Sharia law:
"Catholic law, as with Sharia law, should NEVER be above the law of the land! If Vatican officials want to report the crimes of priests, surley [sic] if they leave the Vatican, they are no longer bound by their medieval laws, and can report with complete immunity to those barbaric laws?"
Apparently however, The Richard Dawkins Foundation for Reason and Science was a little cracked:
The only problem is that this article came from a parody web site (similar to the Onion) called Newslo. The site describes itself this way:
"Newslo is the first hybrid News/Satire platform on the web. Readers come to us for a unique brand of entertainment and information that is enhanced by features like our fact-button, which allows readers to find the line between fact and commentary."
That's about as rich as rich gets.
Carry on.
