Liberal Bias

The Washington Post reported today about a group of Massachusetts politicians protesting yesterday that Senator Rick Santorum wrote in an article about the child molestation scandal in the Catholic Church:

Priests, like all of us, are affected by culture. When the culture is sick, every element in it becomes infected. While it is no excuse for this scandal, it is no surprise that Boston, a seat of academic, political and cultural liberalism in America, lies at the center of the storm.

The Post further reported that a spokesman for Santorum, Robert Traynham, said yesterday that child molestation and abuse by priests was


particularly worse in Boston and the reason why, according to the senator, is because of some of the social institutions that call Boston home. When you take a look at Harvard University and some of the other universities in Boston, I think it's an open secret that there is a liberal bias, unfortunately.

More research may actually be needed before a causal link can be established between Harvard University and child molestation in the Catholic Church. Perhaps the Sociology Department should investigate. Or the Divinity School.
