The New York Times said on January 8, "Under Times standards, we do not normally publish images or other material deliberately intended to offend religious sensibilities."

With this reasoning, they refused to publish the Charlie Hebdo images mocking Islam.

The Times has just been caught being as hypocritical as it gets.
 
New York Times: A Close Call on Publication of Charlie Hebdo Cartoons

Ultimately, he decided against it, he said, because he had to consider foremost the sensibilities of Times readers, especially its Muslim readers. To many of them, he said, depictions of the prophet Muhammad are sacrilegious; those that are meant to mock even more so. “We have a standard that is long held and that serves us well: that there is a line between gratuitous insult and satire. Most of these are gratuitous insult.”

Sanctimonious hypocrites.

Put down the crack pipe.

The picture of the Pope is deliberately intended to offend. Therefore, it falls directly under the Times' stated policy not to publish "images or other material deliberately intended to offend religious sensibilities."

Catholics Beginning to Move Away from the Democratic Party

In a shift that may have consequences for the 2014 elections—and beyond—the Pew Religion and Public Life Project reported late last month that Catholics are continuing to trend toward the Republican Party. Fifty-three percent of white Catholics now identify with or lean toward the Republican Party, while only 39 percent of them identify with or lean toward the Democratic Party. This is a significant shift from 2008, when Pew found that 41 percent of white, Catholic registered voters identified with or leaned toward the Republican Party, and in 2011, when 49 percent did.
