250,000 babies, children, and young adults were sexually abused in New Zealand's Catholic Church and state care institutions from the 1960s to early 2000s
The inquiry found children, some from as young as nine months old, suffered years of abuse, which included rape and electric shock treatment, by staff at psychiatric and state care facilities, clergy, and foster guardians.
New Zealand's Catholic Church formally apologized on Friday to the survivors of abuse within the church and said its systems and culture must change.

teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"
