Lawsuit accuses bishop of Diocese of Portland of facilitating sexual abuse
The suit alleges that Bishop Robert Deeley was one of three high-ranking members of the Catholic Church who were negligent in allowing a high school administrator in Massachusetts to sexually abuse minors for several years starting in 2011.
"It is abundantly clear that the Catholic Church has not changed its ways," Mitchell Garabedian, the plaintiffs’ attorney, told the Press Herald in a phone interview Thursday, adding that he represents about 20 Mainers who claim they were victims of sexual abuse at the hands of clergy.

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"
