I take it from your lack of direct response you've realised I'm a hard-core atheist who would gladly expunge all religion from the face of the planet.....and not a Catholic blindly defending my church.
I would have loved one of the Catholics around here to have seen that. (I doubt they would have been as amused as I was.)
I don't support child abuse either, but I support accusing innocent people of terrible crimes even less. Your claims are overblown and irresponsible regardless of how much actual truth lies at the heart of the matter.
The lack of response is due to our time difference and the lack of interest in right wing american response.... I have heard stories from hunger stikers and IRA members about how they where treated in school from the christian brothers...... violence, beatings and whippings, (I wouldn't even discuss sexual abuse). The church (Chapel) has been responsible for crimes beyond your imagination yet it is still supported and then they try to say it is misguided....
4 doors up my street lives a pedo who sexually assaulted a person 3 doors down the street ( I live in a terraced street), this person spent 1 years in prison for making this child "Squeal like a pig", yet now he kisses the chapels alter while spitting on at his victims house every day and gets away with it... Now you explain the correctness of that........
Before you say it, his brothers broke into his house and beat the **** outa him a few years ago and spent quite abit longer in prison. It seems beating up a pedo and being a pedo carry very different sentences.
