Sinead O'connor never gave a shit what anyone thought and always spoke her mind. She was right to tear up that photo of the Pope, she was one of the few people who were brave enough to speak out against the atrocities that were happening in his name at the time. Thousands of children were abused by the catholic church and to this day new abuse cases are only just coming out. The Pope tried to cover it up and made pathetic excuses for all the lives that were destroyed. The pope is just a figurehead for a very powerful, sick establishment. IMO your relationship with God should be personal. Cut out the middlemen. get off your high horse. Sinead O’connor never gave a shit what anyone thought and always spoke her mind.

I am, quite frankly, getting tired of the whole thing. Were there priests who abused children? Yes. Does that mean all prists abuse chidlren? Of course not. Did some in the church try (and succeed in) covering up or ignoring this abuse? Yes. Does that mean ALL priests/bishops/Cardinals, etc. did or would have done so? No. Do people really need to be spoken to like toddlers to understand basic realities? Try this one: Does the fact that a small number of priests abused children (for which any decent person would agree there is no excuse, it is disgusting espcially for someone who is trusted and respected), does that mean the whole church is guilty of it? The ignorance, prejudice and biggotry of people like you amaze me. @Trillion: the Catholic Church consists of approx. a billion people…are they all pedophiles or protectors of pedophiles in your opinion?

In both of these cases you mention (Dixie Chicks and Sinead) both were vindicated. Bush, obviously, has turned out to be an awful president in every conceivable way and a decade after the Pope ripping incident, the Catholic church was FINALLY exposed for protecting pedophile priests and ignoring the needs of abused children.

It stopped me in my tracks when I first saw it, and I could watch it today, tomorrow, anytime. Her voice is beautiful. Prince is a little prick. His Superbowl performance was pretty good, including the giant penis image projected from behind the giant white sheet - little prick, giant penis image. I see.
