Did Brady have the same authority as any ordinary member of the public to alert the police and the parents of the victims? Was his moral courage so weak that he sat on his hands while in full knowledge that such crimes were going on? Either way, Brady has demonstrated by his inaction and his "only obeying orders" attitude that he has no business being in the job. Revenge be damned.

Likewise, your "judgementalism and condemnation" of our opinions, when none of us are or were in a position do do better, makes me sick. Who are you to assume how we would behave in such situations? How dare you! How dare you!

Read 1 John. Those who practice sin are NOT of God nor are His servants. Try to be a bit more sophisticated instead of throwing the baby out with the bath water.
Oh, it's easy to throw around the biblespam when you're not the victim, isn't it? When it's not your arse and your childhood innocence on the receiving end? Well, whatever helps you sleep at night I suppose. I wonder what choice bits of biblespam Brendan Smyth and his fellow child-rapists use to justify their crimes to themselves and help them sleep at night?
So these priests are not of God (sorry... are NOT of God)? How convenient! Wonder if they mentioned that when pocketing their salaries, that they're being paid for a job for which they're not entitled? And what about Brady? By sitting and doing nothing about a crime which he knew had happened, and for all he knew was still happening, he is as guilty as the rapist priest himself; if not more so.
I echo Min's comment, in spades.
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist. This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair. Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second. That means there's a situation vacant.'
