Pedophilia Irish Style

We literally have a nationwide organized crime ring. Except is can hide behind robes and religion?

And some people call the mullahs in Iran evil.

Ireland implies the sex crime ring is international in scope.

squirell nutkin may have hit the nail square on. The powers that be are complicit in minimizing prosecution. In the Philly diocese alone, some 200? clergymen were known sexual deviates according to the church’s own records. How many hundreds are lurking in South Bend? Does law enforcement know? Why not considering this problem appears to exist in every church diocese. If this was the mafia, the feds would have raided diocese cathedrals long ago (smashing kegs of wine Elliot Ness style).

And this problem can be explained (in part) by a myth that justifies celibacy.

But then who was supposed to be dealing with this problem when John Paul II was the Pope? The current Pope. He rejected an appeal from and when most all American bishops went in mass to the Vatican to beg John Paul to address this problem immediately.

Whereas I can appreciate Griff’s attitude. Still, I am amazed how silent virtually everyone has been. Did the vatican (and current Pope) order bishops to continue a coverup? It certainly looks that way.

My parents are still Catholic, and they are very sad watching their church die. It's quite depressing for them. They had never seen the bad side of the Church, and to see it withering down in size to a tiny fraction of its former self, shutting churches all across town and consolidating services into just one church where there used to be half a dozen churches is quite distressing for them. There are no young families in their church. It's just a bunch of old farts and they keep dying off.
