Sure the money helps Jeff Anderson's ACLU enterprise and his promotion of various Democratic causes, while he simultaneously attacks one of the last remaining bastions of tradition left in the world.
The citation from the following article taken from his website gets at one of the principle reasons behind his "crusade". He's not so much concerned about his abuse victims (well, the money's always nice), but about a forlorn political agenda to destroy the Catholic Church.
The Germans have a saying, "he who eats Pope dies". Jeff Anderson is getting old, let's see how he ends up. Interestingly, some of his foremost potential allies are disassociating themselves from him. Could it be that his inept and hubris tic attack on the Holy See is threatening to discredit the very movements he promotes.
He is certainly feeling the heat. How now, diplomatic history?
For decades the strange practice of treating the Catholic Church as a state has been bad for women's equality, gay rights and reproductive freedom. The Holy See's fictive statehood allows it to promote its retrograde views on gender and sex in diplomatic settings and during treaty negotiations.
Now, the unfolding sexual abuse scandal reveals another dark side of the Holy See's claim to statehood: the extraordinary immunities claimed by the pope in the face of conspiracy accusations that span the globe.
How about the dark side of your soul, Jeff?
