Catholics are a pretty fucked up species all across the board.

ReplyDeleteIt was everyone else, not me!
We are all celibate.
ReplyDeleteWe are all innocent.
Father Fellatio will take your confession now.
ReplyDeleteOur goal is to do they right thing, and that is to merge the Catholic Church with The Boy Scouts.
ReplyDeleteBishop Cocksucker will continue and there is absolutely nothing you can do about it....
ReplyDeleteBig night tonight on Network TV about the boysex corruptness of the Church.
ReplyDeleteFinn is trying to get out in front of some bad news. Just in case you haven't heard 5:10 is referring to ‘Mea Maxima Culpa’: Sex, Lies, and the Catholic Church premiering on HBO tonight.
ReplyDeleteWhich is about sex abuse and coverup.
The church probably threw L.A.'s Mahoney underr the bus because he wasn't an Opus Dei/Legionaries of Christ supporter. Finn on the other hand...
It would probably be easier to list all the priests that don't bugger little boys than the ones who do. Ask all the old alter boys spit or swallow, which way did your priest like it?
ReplyDeleteDon't forget yout thithes!
Ratigans brother was a priest in charge of a deaf mute orphanage, a very powerful position in the priesthood...for passing out little boys!
ReplyDeleteDid Yoder walk "in the water" or,
ReplyDelete"on the water"?

ReplyDeleteAlex Gibney’s new documentary on the child-rape epidemic in the Catholic Church that raged for decades (and maybe centuries), Mea Maxima Culpa, debuted tonight on HBO. I’ve watched it twice. It is both an inspiring testament to faith and truth – as well as a devastating indictment of pride, power, and lies. The former come from four boys who attended St John’s School for the Deaf in Milwaukee in the 1970s. The latter comes from the Vatican and everyone in its power structure then and ever since. It really is a story about how the real church finally stood up to a hierarchy that has betrayed us and committed crimes of such gravity and magnitude they beggar belief.
The story begins as long ago as 1974 when four boys put fliers on the windshields of the cars in the parking lot of the church run by the man who raped them. They simply said “Wanted” with the priest’s name (the more explicit flyer in the video above came later). Instead of being listened to, the kids were disciplined. Eventually, in Murphy’s psychiatric record, Gibney finds Father Lawrence Murphy confessing to raping over 200 boys over a long period of time. He raped them in their dorm rooms; he raped them in the confessional, using the small window as a glory hole and granting absolution based on rape or masturbation. The detail I cannot quite recover from is that he picked out for abuse those deaf boys who had parents who could not use sign language – so that even if the boys had the courage to say what had happened to them, their parents would not understand. It’s things like that that simply chill you, haunt you, force you to confront the pre-meditated, profound assault on human souls that the Catholic Church, from the Pope on down, enabled, perpetuated, and lied about for so long – and still hasn’t been held fully accountable for.

Does anyone REALLY know how sick and sinister this whole mess is? Further, does anyone care at all?? These freak priests and bishops, molesting little boys and getting away "Scott free". What is happening to our country????
ReplyDeleteThere are some sick people in positions of authority in this cult of molesters doing business as the Catholic church. The groper priest is now in charge of picking and training new priests? WTF?
ReplyDeleteWhere are the pope's buttpuppets that used to stop by these threads and call commenters haters? Maybe they've seen the light.
