Catholic Church Opposes Removing Statute of Limitations for Child Rape

[Aroura]

This why that One Billion catholicks number needs to be dismissed.  The silly motherfuckers are probably still counting me.

Unless you managed to write into your local bishop requesting that your baptism be purged, before they removed that provision from canon law (which was in about 2011 after 13,000 Irish people officially left the church in ten months after the site countmeout.org publicised the rule), then yeah you're considered catholic under their rules.

Yep, I wanted to leave, and tried in 2012, but find I'm now permanently in their records, even though I did not chose to be baptised a Catholic.  I was just a few months old.
This is just a way for the church to keep it's numbers up.  So when you see there are 1.2 billion Catholics in the world, you gotta realize some portion of those counted actively reject the church, but are never allowed to leave it officially.
