Pope asks Irish bishops for honesty and courage to deal with sex abuse crisis

[zts78zt]

Fire bishop Vlazny Portland Or USA. Stop this drunk bishop and his blond lady lawyer.

[zts78zt]

In a pastoral letter he blamed chapter11 of the diocese on the victims. In 2007 he proposes that names of the victims should be public knowledge.The real danger here are not the victims but the pedophile priests that he continues to pay them and protect them. Bishop Vlazny makes the Church looks bad. Thank you for your input.

[Joe80751]

Don't the clowns in the hierarchy know they are felons for raping children or covering up for those that did. And get this...felons belong in prison. I hope Ratzinger gets a cell with Bubba and then Ratzinger will get a clue what the kids went thru from the priests. What a bunch of phoney bastards that make up the Catholic hierarchy.

[libramadchen]

Roger (the Dodger) Vangheluwe and Walter (Mixed-Up) Mixa owned up, - and now there's talk about Fernando (the Saint) Karadima involved in some hanky-panky.

I'm suprised all the noisy Cath-defenders have suddenly gone silent.

It's hard to spew bullsh*t excuses when the pervs themselves start confessing, right?

[libramadchen]

in the name of our 3-in-1 god, pls bless our nazi pope, our falling-apart church and whoever's still in it. These sex scandals were created by the green fellows from "Mars Attacks!" who bear a slight resemblance to our pope. Their original plans to do this in 2000 failed, cos their calendars were not synchronized with ours. We will defend ourselves with our army of priests, who have been trained in the Art of Abuse & Molestation, so send us your kids, you filthy Martians, you!!!

[scottmdy40]

Bomb the Vatican and Ireland while we are at it since they are full of fags spouting all there crap about faith and being open about this scandal. This is nothing new, they been butt screwing lil boys for last two thousands years. The Irish priest are some of the worse fags on this planet and all the bishops are doing right now is deleting their BOY porn off there computers and at least the media has finally caught them with their pricks out and all they are doing is going uhhhh & ohhhh

[scottmdy40]

Rome is full of perverts that like to screw little boys in the butt & all the media has done is exposed them everytime they do it! So blame the media............. Ha tell the priest to stop bending little kids over and ramming the up the butt with their you know what! Filthy * sick perverts and I hope they burn in hell. Hope the church in Rome falls finally for once in all

[scottmdy40]

Has anyone see the newest headlines here in USA... it reads this "Connecticut bishops fight sex abuse bill " figures the bishops would fight to protect the faggot asses, I hope they pass it in all the states. Thank goodness I am not a catholic because I would of been screwed in the butt by a bishop when I was young, its sick how they cover it up and keep these priest in the churches so the can screw more boys in the ass. Shit head pervs and is so gross that they let them keep screwing boys

[priest008]

Look.. the media promotes dishonesty and sexual promiscuity, it's evil, and because some priests fell to the evil side, you are scandalized and surprised???? the media is responsible for the sexual promotions in today's society but of course now they go after the Church they never bring any one else who was living a homosexual lifestyle do they, yet they promote it and promote gay marriage! So they shouldn't be playing the saints!

[19lfm12]

@priest008 The extent of corporate control, management, ownership of global media by persons & entities within the orbit of Opus Dei points the 'finger' for what you assert......at them:)

But please....do not let me interfere in your veneration of a 'man' who has the very day denied the Divinity of Christ, the Trinity, & blasphemed God (again....) in public.

You have no clue what your loyalty is to.

[libramadchen]

@priest008 - abuse by the clergy has been going on since the founding of the church, - so what was that argument about "the media is responsible for sexual promotions in today's society", again? Care to explain? Or are you gonna keep on spinning and play the blame-game?

[Spartacus217]

PB16 needs to be ousted pronto!

[ajfiest]

Who is most likely to abuse in America?

1.Family Members 85 percent of the offenders [of child sexual abuse] are family members-Dr. Garth A. Rattray, Child Month and Paedophilia, The Gleaner, May 14, 2002.

[19lfm12]

The figures on Catholic Clerical Sex Abuse are only the cases which the Church 'considered credible'. Obviously many were not even counted, for the church's convenience:)

...and thousands more were not even reported since the 1920s, out of FEAR of the Church's power.

Thus the true number of abuse cases are known but to God. Yet they are at LEAST 50% higher then the 'figures' the Vatican acknowledges.

[ajfiest]

2.Teachers - about 5 percent of teachers sexually abuse children- Schools Chancellor: Four Teachers Barred from Classroom, Associated Press, June 12, 2003.

-1 percent of those lost their license to teach.- Diana Jean Schemo, Silently  Shifting Teachers in Sex Abuse Cases, New York Times, June 18, 2002, p. A19.

[19lfm12]

@ajfiest What you are quoting is a very clever ruse to misdirect ppls attention from the sins of the Vatican Hierarchy, which is being 'spun' by Opus Dei & the Legion of Christ.

The point man in this vile disinformation campaign is Fr. Jonathan Morris, LC

The Vatican Administrators are guilty of the carefully orchestrated coverup of Clerical Sex Abuse. For decades, if not centuries.

[ajfiest]

3.Protestant clergy -ranges between 2 and 3 percent -Philip Jenkins, Pedophiles and Priests (New York: Oxford University Press), pp. 50 and 81.

[ajfiest]

4.Catholic Priests - 1.8 percent of all priests ordained from 1950 to 2001 have been accused of child sexual abuse - Laurie Goodstein,  Decades of Damage; Trail of Pain in Church Crisis Leads to Nearly Every Diocese, New York Times, January 12, 2003, Section 1, p.

[19lfm12]

The 'divert attention away from Catholic priest/bishop sex abusers' is the work of Opus Dei & the Legion of Christ. The point man is this foul travesty is Fr. Jonathan Morris, LC.

This campaign to deny & distract from the truth of systemic Catholic Clerical Sex Abuse of the young - & the intentional global coverup led by Ratzginer - is the murder of souls.

For which God will allow....the guilty to be punished. One way or the other.

[ajfiest]

5..2 percent of athletic coaches nationwide have a criminal record of some sort of sexual offense. - Michael Dobie, Violation of Trust; When Young Athletes Are Sex-Abuse Victims, Their Coaches Are Often the Culprits, Newsday, June 9, 2002, p. C25.

Wall Street Journal-NBC News, it was found that 64 percent of the public thought that Catholic priests frequently abused children.

[libramadchen]

@ proreligion = that really depends on how one looks at it.

I believe that people who 'believe' in any kind of 'god' belong to the "ignorant", - so go look in the mirror a & 'stereotype' yourself.

We should feel sorry for your type, - but that would be a waste of time, b'cos this kind of ingorance is hard to brush off.

[AlexanderandJulie14]

Sick shit I can't believe it's happening in a chruch.

[libramadchen]

@helenw100 = abuse by the clergy was happening BEFORE the word "communist" was even invented.

[serenitylol]

Unless all of the suspected abusers are named, living and dead, and great changes happen in the Irish Catholic Church, it will become increasingly, and rightly so, the church of the aged.

[helenw100]

Communists confessed Vatican II was their goal to destroy Catholic Church and unsuspected Clerics went along with it:

"In the 1930's, we put eleven hundred men into the priesthood in order to destroy the Church from within. The idea was for these men to be ordained, and then climb the ladder of influence and authority as Monsignors and Bishops

[19lfm12]

The Bella Dodd screed - even if true - is a red herring. The majority of sex abuser priests & enabling Bishops were trained prior to Vatican II, as well as a very large percentage of the KNOWN cases going back to the 1920s.

Vatican II was an attempt to reform the Church to what Christ intended, to strip away what was wrong & sinful in it. It is the right wing, led by Opus Dei, which sought to sink the Council, using drones on the Left AND RIght to befoul it.

[priest008]

you seem to know a lot about Catholicism, are you Catholic, and PS:.....the Church is innocent, the priests are to blame not the institution.

[19lfm12]

@priest008 You imbicile! The priests ARE the institution....the bishops who KNEW, tacitly approved of the abuse & conspired to cover it up ARE the institution! Thus 'The Church' is guilty as hell!

The Catholic Faith is NOT one & the same with the Roman Catholic organization, referred to as The Vatican. Neither is the Vatican the 'Kingdom of God' referenced by Christ. This is one huge 'bait & switch' scam - spiritual deception!

[priest008]

@19lfm12 i see, and who leads the Catholic Church??? You?

[libramadchen]

these bastards (the Nazi Pope included) should be thrown in jail, and locked up for life!

[ProReligion]

Why should the pope be put in jail?

And by the way, concearning the Nazi comment, children during the times in which he was a teenager had no choice to be part of the "Hitler youth" organisation. He has never been or suggested that he has been a follower of the Nazi organisation. Ignorant people stereotype...

[dsindc]

ProReligion, the lies have got to stop. Ratzinger was in fact drafted and began his service in the Wermacht in 43 and commenced his training. He was 16. Is that old enough to know right from wrong? According to the catholic church it is. Did he speak out? Did he conspire against what has to be the greatest evil ever? NO. What irony that it was a protestant theologian, Dietrich Bonhoeffer who did. He ended up hanging from a piano wire. Let's do the math, Ratzinger would have been 18 in 45.

[19lfm12]

Actually Ratz began his HitlerJugend association in 1937 when he was 10, as mandated by law. When he was 14 in 1941, he joined the senior part of the HJ, thence saw military service. He joined willingly - despite the official lies to the contrary.

His dad worked for the SS; his mother was illegitimate.

The age of reason is 7, at which one is old enough to know right from wrong according to Catholic teaching & many civil laws.

[19lfm12]

@ProReligion The Pope should be tried & jailed as he is personally responsible for the deeds of his subordinates - and for what HE did in Munich - AND for what he covered up as head of the CDF!

He willingly joined the HitlerJugend at age 10 in 1937; entering its senior division when he was 14. His dad worked for the SS.The family were Nazi supporters. Their neighbors, members of the White Rose (Catholic resistance) were turned in.....I wonder who did that?

[ANDROID697]

Now there is a GAY SEX RING been reported in the Nazi-Vatican.

Homo-pedo-org.

[kickstar126]

A bunch of Filthy Perverts

[12buhbauy0987]

In the name of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ, God bless Pope Benedict XVI, the Roman Catholic Church, the Irish people and the Whole World today and forever!!!

These sexual scandals were created by those liberals (traitors like Judas) who wanted to destroy the Church by the year 2000 but failed to do so, now they are being purged slowly but surely. Thanks be to God!

[ANDROID697]

NEWSFLASH-Check the Latest, Gay sex ring IN the Vatican. On the News, on YT etc.

JESUS WILL CRUSH THIS BEAST!!

[priest008]

Yes he will crush the schismatic protestants the beast is he who looks hideous and ungroomed and only he who doesn't received the Eucharist is hideous.

[dan32113]

your secret is out, child molesters are rife in the Catholic Church, FACT

[dan32113]

on Radio5 live on Thursday, senior member of Catholic church Monsignor Maurice Dooley said "he would not stop a child being abused if it breached the confidentiality of a paedophile priest!"

[libramadchen]

@12buhbauy0987 - .......and you actually BELIEVE that crap you wote?? Wow!

[butlincat1]

its well known satanic rituals go on at the Vatican behind closed doors - thats why they believe in other dimensional entities such as ets as theyve more than likely contacted them in their abhorrent activities - lock them up!!

[Sundrumify]

@butlincat1

Know what you mean. Like attracts like, that is a universal law. And as far as what they attract from other realms? You wonder!

Lisa

[Sundrumify]

@butlincat1

Recently the Pope was attacked by a women. Whatever here motives have been and I wish that for nobody!! He should know by now what physical attack feels like. And he should feel, how all these kids feel, who have been sexually abused by these Priests, and the endless trauma these abuses cause in the further life of these victims and possible partners. An endless chain of pain and trauma!!

[butlincat1]

@Sundrumify i saw it on tv - she had done it before, and was classed as mad,so the reporters said - child abuse / murder is part of the satanic ritual,taking the essence of the spirit of a young child whilst in the state of fear, according to sources

[borceroy]

At the very top level they are Satanists!

Vatican should be banned forever!

[Sundrumify]

@borceroy

Whatever a Satanist is?! They do not have caring for our best in their hearts, other than power games, propaganda and a fear mongering policy. They know what they do not reveal of their hidden libraries. And anybody who is hiding the truth and misuses the blind belief of others for their own power games and control, is a criminal.

Lisa

[Sundrumify]

Highly recommend, that Pope Benedict reads the book by Timothy Freke and Peter Gandy "The Gospel of the Second Coming" which is based on unpublished Gnostic texts the Vatican is in possession of. It is time to open the hidden libraries of the Vatican and it is time to stop the propaganda. Walk your talks in the Vatican and then you may have a right to act as teachers and not preachers.

Lisa from Munich

[butlincat1]

@Sundrumify  theyre demons

[Sundrumify]

@butlincat1

We do not listen to them, but we see them! Their auras speak for themselves and if they are demons or not. At least they are overshadowed by dark powers or forces.

It is time that this empire falls, among others.

Lisa

[priest008]

IMPOSSIBLE, the Church will never fall, the criminals will fall like rocks into the storm, but the Church shall live until Christ comes again.

[libramadchen]

@priest008 - yeah, but the church IS run by criminals, - so therefore if we have to understand your theory, - then the church WILL be falling soon . Now, - regarding your other comment about Christ "coming again"....., do adults still believe in that crap? How old are you? 6? 7?

[priest008]

Then the problem is not the Church but you, you have no faith so don't expect to believe, You can't understand certain things and calling Christs glorious reign crap, well I just pity you...

[libramadchen]

@priest008 - actually we pity the likes of YOU. Your perverted priests, nuns brothers and sadistic Mother Superiors abuse and molest children, and all you do is talk (and defend) your church & Christ's "glorious reign". You must be an 6 yr old or a very disturbed adult. Shame on you!

[quepasany1]

acts of abuse will not stop completely. it is and has been going on since day1. 1500yrs of this. almost incomprehensible. the real number of lives hardened by the acts of these jerks will never be known.

[Sundrumify]

Source: Belfast Telegraph of today´s:

Victims of clerical sex abuse last night accused the Pope of washing his hands of the scandals that have rocked the Catholic Church in Ireland.

Abuse survivors condemned the Pope Benedict XVI for not acknowledging that senior clergy covered up decades of sickening abuse.They said the Pontiff's unprecedented two-day summit with the 24 Irish bishops in the Vatican in Rome was a charade that had achieved nothing."

This is very shitty and odd. I would say that the days of celibacy are coming to and end. So many cases is soooo extrange that I heard that even the UN is questioning this issue already.

[maximus0152]

Makes my skin crawl. Not even a full acknowledgement, there is something rotten at work here plain and simple.
