    Corrupt Catholic Priest

    I initially had this one listed but figured I'd get flack from the religious people over it. So I went with politician instead.

    I thought you might like this one!
    Vinny

    And corrupt Baptist and Pentecostal preachers, pastors, etc You know, the ones that rip off the parishioners and rape the women..
    schubee

    I was going to say that, Vinny. Corrupt religious leaders.
    leeroy

    I cant stand to watch many Christian television programs, especially if they mention,"Planting a seed," or just talk about money for to long. That really turns people off. What a shame there are so many phonies out there.

    And poor people who follow them.

    Hmm, suicide doctor is iffy....if I had terminal cancer with no chance for a good quality life that was free of pain, I'd want someone to euthanize me. I think it's more immoral to make people suffer.

    I predict that in the future there will be many "suicide doctors" this will happen when medicare is unable to pay the bills of the terminal patients who suffer daily.
    I believe that Medicare covers all ages in the case of serious illness or injury.
    I went into a nursing home daily for about 20 years to visit my mom who didnt recognize me ... she was unable to do ANYTHING. Horrible. there were many people like her.
    daren1

    welcome to the new world order "susicde doctors" will be goverment santioned under the guise of "fema" carrying m16s and a personifaction of a freight train.
    itsmee

    I would have been very frightened if a suicide doctor had been sent with an m16
    to kill my mother.do you truly believe what you said? are you happy now that you have said it? smiling?
    You painted a grim, mean picture. I don't like that you phrased it that way especially after what my mother, my family and I have been through.
    but i've heard it before from you.
    daren1

    sorry i didnt mean to come of so harsh, i lost my mom as well to cancer. i did't really paint the picture i just copyied it,, my deepst respect and sincerity for you ...

    prostitutes gotta eat too.

    and don't knock auto mechanuics, Shubee. Most of them have been honest, ethical, and hard working. God knows we need them
    Now, dealers is a different story
    I don't think there is such a thing as 'legal' unethical professions. I do think there are unethical people working in ethical professions though.

    There is nothing bad about an Auto mechanic
    Lawyer
    Car Salesman
    Collection agents
    Politicians
    Etc,

    These are all legal and ethical professions-- It's the sorry ass people that make them unethical.

    I could add-- Preachers, Priests, Rabbis and Ministers as I think 'some' of them have made religion unethical.

    'One bad apple makes the entire bushel rotten.."
    schubee

    We know that, Vinny. Just talking about stereotypes. Yes, false religious leaders are the worst kind.
    judges
    lawyers
    accountants
    Doctor doctor and doctor... Oh and Politician and Lawyer.

    What about Preachers who google their sermons?
    Priests and other religious people who sexualy abuse children allegedly in "their care"
    Religious leaders who claim theirs` is the only true religion.

    Are these not unethical professions?

    You can`t pick on lawyers,sales people, judges, politicians, prostitutes, and expect impunity for you beliefs.

    If you can`t stand the heat don`t come into the kitchen.

    Priests were covered already. ;)
    itsmee

    can you google a sermon!
    PEOPLELOVER

    Yes itsmee, according to what was on this site from a "believer" there is a site in the US that men/women of the cloth can google for thei sermon preperation.

    Must be true for two reasons: Tongue firmly in cheek,
    1) The comment was posted by a "believer.
    2) It was from a believer from the U.S.A.
    I know this is not a profession, but I must mention,

    Litterer - especially on the road.
    itsmee

    people who don't pick up dog droppings! I wrote a letter to the editor over the matterof litter. : )
    Apparently the world of finance offers ample opportunity for
    unethical behavior whether it be a Madoff or Skilling approach.
    Advertising companies are particularly annoying in their pursuit
    -that being to come up with the pushiest and most unavoidable
    placements for their products; then to argue they are "enhancing"
    your experience by filling your mind with crap.
    Lobbyists are the most damned professionals because they are influence peddlers, have few governing restrictions and are willing to use immoral devices to achieve their ends. Congress is shackled and haltered by Lobbyists.
    Telemarketers demean values and make a folly of sensible choice. Their greatest enemy is Consumer’s Reports presently.
    Car Salesmen give being a man, a burden to carry. They are an embarrassment to all men by polishing and applying lipstick to pigs with wings…their god and hood ornament. Brings tears to my eyes.
    Longrat

    Ooh the nefarious lobbyists -I forgot about them!
    Although theoretically lobbying is a good thing because
    its a tool citizens can use make their concerns known -
    industries have abused the option until its original
    purpose is difficult to remember. I agree -lobbyists
    can be very unethical.
    robertgrist

    Lobbyists should be fully and openly exposed in all of their activities. Where there is no accountability there is the potential for mischief. How do you own a politician?
    By making their position subject to your control. What protection do politicians have that secures their position morally without compromise?
    longrat speaks
    "advertising companies are particularly annoying in their pursuit-that being to come up with the pushiest and most unavoidable placements for their products; then to argue they are "enhancing" your experience by filling your mind with crap.

    good saying, long rat. (creative) i am standing up for you and cheering. the advertisements for cars during game time may be the very worst.
    1. Unethical contractors, especially people who come around after a storm and try to take advantage.
    2. Lawyers who are more interested in being right than wrong, no matter what.
    3. People who are trying to take advantage of this real estate crisis in unethical ways.
    most surgeons
    lawyers
    religious leaders

    Oh, I just agree with most akaqa people
    let's not forget Drs. There are many honest ones out there, but we've all heard horror stories about a Dr. doing an unneccary surgery. ......even I have had that done. And a nursing home Dr. removed my mother's meds, without my permission; and that's what killed her. They do that to keep a turnover going on the Medicare floor. A Dr. caused my husband's death too. :-O
    1.
    The legal profession, judges, laywers, proscutors.
