Erykah Badu Strips, Gets Shot, Shocks
Sex and violence: In pop culture, it’s the one-two punch that knocks the wind out of just about everyone. Currently basking in its power is Erykah Badu.

Erykah Badu video stirs anger over use of JFK assassination site | Richard Adams
R&B singer Erykah Badu goes naked and pretends to be shot at the site of JFK’s assassination in controversial videoIt may be nearly 47 years since President John F Kennedy was assassinated on Dealy Plaza in Dallas but the memory of that day remains raw for many Americans. So when R&B singer Erykah Badu made a music video showing her following the same route as JFK before collapsing at the very spot the president was shot, controversy was bound to be stirred.On the video, for Badu’s track Window Seat, the singer drives to the Plaza in scenes consciously aping the famous grainy Zapruder movie footage of the assasination, and begins with familiar radio commentary of Kennedy’s fateful visit and Badu wearing a scarf in the style of Jacqueline Kennedy.She then walks down the route that Kennedy took, while shedding her clothes (with the video pixilating her genitalia). By the time Badu arrives at the point where Kennedy and Texas governor John Connally were struck by Lee Harvey Oswald’s bullets, she is naked and ” after what sounds like a shot being fired ” falls abruptly to the ground as if struck. The video then shows a blue graphic that appears to seep from Badu’s head.Badu claims to have shot the video “guerrilla style” and that the people at the site were tourists. But their lack of reaction to seeing a naked woman collapsing on the street in front of them suggests otherwise. Badu, a native of Dallas, posted on Twitter saying: “the people caught in the shot were trying hard to ignore me.

Christopher Hitchens: Catholic Church Wants ‘Wiggle Room’ For Rape And Torture Of Children (VIDEO)
Author and journalist Christopher Hitchens appeared on the “Real Time With Bill Maher” Friday and slammed the Catholic church for it’s handling of the “rape and torture of children.” Pope Benedict XVI was criticized this week after internal church files showed that in his prior capacity, Cardinal Joseph Ratzinger had ignored multiple letters from Bishops asking him to defrock a Wisconsin priest who abused as many as 200 boys at a school for the deaf. On top of these claims, the church is dealing with a wave of sex abuse allegations in Germany, Benedict’s homeland. Hitchens argued that the church has been complicit in abuse by protecting abusers and shuttling them from parish to parish. As he sees it, the moral church wants “wiggle room” for “the one crime that no one can think about without vomiting.” Hitchens: The only worry [the Pope] had was ‘Would this damage the church–’ Would it hurt the church–not the children. Now what I want to know is this: what is the attorney general of the state of Wisconsin now going to do– Are we going to say these people are above our law. I appeal to people. I mean, that’s what’s being asked for.

Pope Abuse: Latest News Updates
Pope Sex Abuse Scandal: In Palm Sunday Sermon, Pope Says He Won’t Be Intimidated
VATICAN CITY — Pope Benedict XVI opened Holy Week on Sunday amid one of the most serious crises facing the church in decades, with protesters in London demanding he resign and calls in Switzerland for a central registry for pedophile priests. Benedict made no direct mention of the scandal in his Palm Sunday homily. But one of the prayers, recited in Portuguese during Mass, was “for the young and for those charged with educating them and protecting them.” Jesus Christ, Benedict said in his homily, guides the faithful “toward the courage that doesn’t let us be intimidated by the chatting of dominant opinions, towards patience that supports others.” Palm Sunday commemorates Christ’s triumphant entry into Jerusalem, and is the start of the church’s Holy Week, which includes the Good Friday re-enactment of Christ’s crucifixion and death and his resurrection on Easter Sunday. This year, the most solemn week on the Catholic Church’s liturgical calendar has been stained by a clerical abuse scandal that has spread across Europe to the pope’s native Germany. In London on Sunday, a few dozen people gathered outside Westminster Cathedral to demand the pope resign. Demonstrators carried placards saying “Pope– Nope!” and “Don’t Turn a Blind Eye.” The Archbishop of Westminster Vincent Nichols insisted the pope wouldn’t – and shouldn’t – quit. “In fact, it is the other way around,” he told BBC television. “He is the one above all else in Rome that has tackled this thing head on.” In Austria, where several cases have come out in recent weeks, the archbishop of Vienna announced the creation of a church-funded but clergy-free and independent commission to look into Austrian abuse claims. It will be run by a woman, the former governor of Styria province, and is not meant to take the place of a possible state-run investigative commission, Cardinal Christoph Schoenborn told public broadcaster ORF on Sunday. And in Switzerland, Swiss President Doris Leuthard told the weekly SonntagsZeitung that Switzerland should consider creating a central registry of pedophile priests to prevent them from coming into contact with more children. Church leaders say about 60 people have reported to be victims of priest abuse in Switzerland. “It doesn’t make any difference if the perpetrators are from the secular or spiritual world. Both violate Swiss law,” she said.

Pope Sexual Abuse Scandal: Benedict Implicated In Cover-Up Of Wisconsin Abuse Case
As a cardinal, Pope Benedict XVI and other Vatican officials did not punish or even hold a trial within the Catholic church for a Wisconsin priest who may have molested as many as 200 deaf boys, according to The New York Times. The Times reports that despite warnings from “several” bishops to then-Cardinal Ratzinger about Father Lawrence Murphy, a priest at the St. John’s School For The Deaf in St. Francis, WI, the Vatican chose not to act and ultimately allowed Murphy to go unpunished before his death in 1998. The Times reports: In 1996, Cardinal Ratzinger failed to respond to two letters about the case from Rembert G. Weakland, Milwaukee’s archbishop at the time. After eight months, the second in command at the doctrinal office, Cardinal Tarcisio Bertone, now the Vatican’s secretary of state, instructed the Wisconsin bishops to begin a secret canonical trial that could lead to Father Murphy’s dismissal. But Cardinal Bertone halted the process after Father Murphy personally wrote to Cardinal Ratzinger protesting that he should not be put on trial because he had already repented and was in poor health and that the case was beyond the church’s own statute of limitations. “I simply want to live out the time that I have left in the dignity of my priesthood,” Father Murphy wrote near the end of his life to Cardinal Ratzinger.
