DISQUS

Anyone who continues to contribute to this ongoing organized criminal enterprise (RICO!) is just as guilty as the raping/sodomizing/molesting/abusing predatory clergy and their mitered and red hatted enablers.

SHAME, SHAME, SHAME!!!

Almost akin to paying taxes in the U.S. for raping/sodomizing/molesting/abusing and killing those pesky "foreigners" with oil.

We all need to WATCH where our money goes, and whom it supports - religion, government, & corporations.

In the case of the Legion/Rectum Christi it may be a good idea to look into where the monies came/come from too.

I wonder if these bishiop, cardinals, major superiors and popes think that Almighty GOD is going to thank them for allowing thousands of priests, brothers, deacons, nuns and (yes) even some bishops to sexually butcher hundreds of thousands of catholic children, young people and vulnerable adults; sexually butchered, not just in body, but also, in mind and spirit. As a Victims myself, I know first hand that so many of my fellow survivors of clergy sexual violation have lost their faith in a Loving and Merciful GOD.
My own theory is that these so called, "Hierarchy" (Lowerarchy, really) of the Roman Catholic Church have covered for their pedophile and sexually predatory underlings in a effort to keep secret their own hedonistic lifestyles. Scratching each other's backs and keeping each other's secrets as it were.
And during all this, the Lay Catholics have kept themselves conveniently ignorant about the details of the rape and sodomy of the Vulnerable of Our Church. The people in the pews still continue to think that what happened to the Victims was, "Not that bad". I can tell you that it was more than bad. It was hard core, bloody, messy (In some cases, ritualistic) perverted, painful sexual violation. Things were forced on the Victims that most men would hesitatie to request from professional prostitutes.
I still believe in GOD; and I know that there is going to be a "Reckoning". And I wonder if these elderly bishops who covered up these terrible crimes against GOD and HIS Children; I wonder if these bishops are starting to get frightened about what awaits them when they've passed over. I HOPE They Are Frightened. And I HOPE They Burn In Hell.

"Cardinal Mahony, you got some 'splanin to do."

If he is still alive, I wonder if he will go the same route of Cardinal Law and end up in some obscure position at the Vatican? This is how the "church" rewards its faithful shepherds. ( Fu*k the flock. ) apologies to the faint of heart.

Its okay to molest children but not okay for two same sex men or women to love and marry one another......hmmmmm is there something wrong with this organized religion???

Roger Mahoney is a vile, souless cretin. He spends money on idiotic cathederals in downtown LA, hates gays, and his diocese has a special interest in latino boys. I have such a difficult time trying to figure out what is especially "Godly" about him

John,
Why not send your article directly to the Pope? Here is his email address:
