There is ZERO proof that J. Edgar Hoover was a cross-dresser or a homosexual!

J. Edgar Hoover made a lot of enemies over the years due to his status as the top cop. A lot of people don't like the police and J. Edgar Hoover brought law and order to the USA. He was an innovator who turned the FBI into a top-tier law enforcement agency. This movie portrays J. Edgar Hoover as a sexual deviant but he was a devout Catholic. I recommend the 1987 movie J. Edgar Hoover with Treat Williams starring as J. Edgar Hoover.

I would say that "devout catholic" is 1000x WORSE than "sexual deviant". After all, regular catholics ARE confirmed as being PEDOPHILES, so a devout catholic would be much worse! And fuck you if you disagree.

And catholic priests have molested and preyed on children. Your point?

Provide proof of regular Catholics being pedophiles. I also labeled him as a devout Catholic and there is a difference. I'm not talking unmarried priests by the way.

I think it's sad that you would actually hurl f-bombs at somebody who disagrees with you. Message board forums are supposed to encourage the exchange of ideas and positions BUT you just drop f-bombs.

I totally disagree that a devout Catholic is 1000x worse than a sexual deviant.

World religions can go fuck themselves, it's because of religion that we're not colonising other PLANETS by now! The Dark Ages was the flourishing ground for superstitious, ignorant religions (of which most are). So if YOU don't like it either, YOU can fuck off, too!

When it comes to devout Catholics, they have a well-know reputation for never being sexually deviant.
