Cardinal: Atheists are Not "Fully Human"

In a story posted today on the Freethinker, Cardinal Cormac Murphy O’Connor is caught on video saying, "atheists are not fully human." I will keep this post short and sweet.

1) Dehumanization is widely recognized as one of the biggest tools in a regime's arsenal when trying to attack a group of people. (See: The Holocaust.)

2) What would have happened if the Cardinal said, "Muslims are not fully human?"

Where is the outrage?

UPDATE: After a technical issue and an absence, I have had to re-post all of my old posts. As a result there will be many posts listed as published today, Dec 3, 2009, that were posted sometime earlier in the year, but I do not know the exact date. this post is one of them.
