Damned Catholics

I just don’t understand the lack of involvement or cooperation with law enforcement. It’s so fucking ridiculous.

Like Vorlon says, they think of it more as a sacrament than a crime.

[Fireball]

It's probably that the RCC is such a long-lived institution that they have their tentacles everywhere, and are playing a political game. If any one of us molested a kid, we'd be toast. If the police won't touch them, it's pressure from higher in the organization, through pressure from the RCC.

Not sure about their tentacles, but their testicles seem to be in places they shouldn't be.

[Minimalist]

Can't we just lock all of these fucking holy cocksuckers up already?

Cardinal Who Met With Pope About Sex Abuse Scandal Accused of Mismanaging Priest

A leading American cardinal who met with Pope Francis on Thursday to discuss the sex abuse crisis that has engulfed the Roman Catholic Church is facing criticism over his management of a priest who was arrested this week on charges of indecency with children.

The cardinal, Daniel N. DiNardo, of the Archdiocese of Galveston-Houston, has been accused of knowing about at least two episodes of sexual abuse by a priest, who was allowed to remain in ministry for years.

Jesus fucking christ...what a gang of scum is this fucking church!

Simple. The RCC holds that Canon Law supercedes mere earthly laws. Sounds daft but to paraphrase...

"I would have gotten away with it if it weren't for meddling with those pesky kids."

Ooo, the shock. I wonder what CL has to say about that?

[Minimalist]

Probably the "it was just one" routine.

Which flies in the face of this revelation.

In rare move, San Diego diocese names eight priests as alleged sexual predators

The clerical sexual abuse scandal rocking the Roman Catholic Church hit home Thursday, as the Diocese of San Diego added eight priests to the list of those believed to have molested children.

“This is a response to the terrible moment we are in,” said Bishop Robert McElroy, citing a recent Pennsylvania grand jury report that found 1,000 children there had been molested by Pittsburgh-area priests, and the resignation of Theodore McCarrick, who is accused of sexually assaulting altar boys, seminarians and priests.

Probably the "it was just one" routine.

Or CL would probably divert subject to poop talk and then advise us all to google-image-search "shitting ass" because that's so funny and would relax us for freaking out about Catholic crimes and then she would laugh at her little post.

Sex abuse claims rock Dutch Catholic Church

More than half of the Netherlands’ senior clerics were involved in covering up sexual assault of children between 1945 and 2010, a press report claimed Saturday, further engulfing the Catholic Church in a global abuse scandal.

Over the course of 65 years, 20 of 39 Dutch cardinals, bishops and their auxiliaries “covered up sexual abuse, allowing the perpetrators to cause many more victims”, the daily NRC reported.
