For: 13.5	For. —Sir Socky (talk) (stalk) GUN SotM UotM PMotM UotY PotM WotM 14:00, 15 May 2012 For. →A (Ruins) 21:01, May 16, 2012 (UTC) For. Too true, and great satire. Comment below. Aleister 12:13 17-5-'12 For. Per Aleister Funnybony  12:27, May 17 For This article is pitched brilliantly. The unique angle used with the subject, coupled with great writing, make this one of the best pieces of satire I have seen anywhere recently. It is satirising the church's longstanding and continuing disgusting attitude toward child-abuse, not supporting the act. mAttlobster.

Sweet Potato (talk) 03:16, May 22, 2012 (UTC) Not laugh-out-loud funny, but I like what it says, and I agree with the Lobster when he says it's brilliantly pitched. Black Flamingo 12:25, June 2, 2012 (UTC) For. On second thought, I don't think we need to be worried about showing the church in a poor light. It's good satire, if you can stomach it. --Scofield & Dudes 16:56, June 3, 2012 (UTC) For. Nice, nice GermanPug ► SPRICH, FREUND! 17:04, June 3, 2012 (UTC) For.

Against: 1	Against. I'm not sure why this is funny. RS (talk) 22:36, May 15, 2012 (UTC) Against. I'll have to go with Shabidoo on this one. It's too disturbing, and shows the church in much to poor a light to be featured on the main page. Scofield & Dudes 06:37, May 17, 2012 (UTC)
Comments:	Comment. Im really sorry but this article creeps me out. It seems like it is more supporting boy rape than parodying it. While Im sure that this was not the aim of the article, thats how it appears to me at least. ShabiDOO 23:28, May 15, 2012 (UTC) That's the satire, and if it creeps you out, it did what satire is supposed to do! And for being "too disturbing, and shows the church in much to poor a light...", there is not too poor a light for what that cult did to thousands of boys over many decades (and that's not even going into the historical record - probably 1500 years of this was going on). Aleister 12:15 17-5-'12 Comment. What does Ringo say in UnNews:Vatican forgiven by Beatles. It seem to me that this article is offering a cure, not inciting an already existing crime. It's a spoof on the meaning of the title. Since when did Uncyclopedia become religious? The only bad light on the church is their own history to date. Lighten up! Funnybony  12:43, May 17 Sorry guys, the "spoof" part doesn't come across to me. --ShabiDOO 22:01, May 17, 2012 (UTC) Comment. Added a new cartoonish picture with new caption --- to lighten it up more. Funnybony  09:17, May 18
