Priests charged with child abuse being sheltered in Rome

FOREIGN STAFF


SOME Roman Catholic religious orders have been sheltering priests in Rome despite claims that the men sexually abused children, it was reported yesterday.

Of the seven accused priests located by the Dallas Morning News, one has been indicted in Arizona, but refuses to return to face the charges. Two others had admitted to abuse years ago, but now face additional claims.

I wonder how the Pope is going to explain this one

1. "We must find a way to keep those kids from talking!"

3. Was that a classic episode or WHAT?

Kudos to you! :)

2. Maybe he'll write another screed about those vile feminists n/t

4. I can't hear you!

I have it on good authority that this "priest" does not actually exist but is a forgery of someone's imagination.

5. The Catholic Church is dying.

Come to think of it, all of organized religion has begun its desperate struggle for relevancy.

The species is most assuredly evolving beyond the back-water superstition that "God" is something much greater, and more powerful, than our own spirit... A paternalistic prop to be groveled to for mercy, forgivness, hope etc.

It's about time religion gave way to truth.

7. ARe you single Dem? That was the most intelligent thing I've heard

all year. n/t

12. Awwwww ... shucks, ma'am.

:loveya:

Still looking for the right Dem to unite with.
(Alas, I left Florida ten years ago ...)

6. Don't forget the honors bestowed on Cardinal Law! The Church

hasn't changed
:cry: and Jesus wept.

8. Isn't it time for a second Reformation?

I mean its been centuries since the last one.

9. so the Pope will go to his death being known as the Pedophile Pope?

what a legacy

[KansDem]

10. We can't give women control over their own bodies...

But we can give absolute control of the bodies of 10-old boys to pedophile priests without accountability...

...Sigh...how I miss the Enlightenment...

11. "Churches are the sepulchers of the lord." Nietzsche

Excellent post. The church started settling law suits all over America when a document emerged indicating a plan from the Vatican to keep 'pervert priest' behavior on the 'down-low.' That document would more than justify this notion. It's a shame since the Catholic church has a 'Christ-driven' social agenda.

13. A kick ... for the Pope.

Right in the ass.

[FlemingsGhost]

14. And another ...
