SINS OF THE FATHERS

"Evil thinks not to beguile us by unveiling the terrible truth of its festering intent, but comes,

instead, disguised in the diaphanous robes of virtue, whispering sweet-sounding lies intended

to seduce us into the dark bed of our eternal graves." -- Terry Goodkind ('The Pillars of Creation')

 

So how does a Catholic feel when they find that their religious leaders like to fuck little boys in the butt.
I remember back about the time the bones in the closet of Father Bruce Ritter, who had set up
Covent House, a home for runaway boys was doing how the Greek do...and the Father goes to the

little boy's back doors.  Father Back door man...One of their high priests was a member of NAMBLA...

So is this some dark part of their secret order.  Is the darkness of their black robes part of the cover...

has this order come down from some long ago past?   Some dark unspoken law of your sick fraternity.

MORE CRAP FROM THE VATICAN:

This from a Country (Vatican) that allows its Pedophiles to remain secret and exposed to
children throughout the world.  As long as Bishops like Roger Mahoney in Los Angeles
continue to hide and possess the files of pedophile priests still exposed to children, press
releases like this today is just so much more CRAP From the VATICAN.

New figures released Thursday by the nation's Roman Catholic bishops show the unrelenting toll of the clergy sex abuse

crisis: 783 new credible claims last year, most of which date back decades, and costs of nearly $467 million.

While researchers who analyzed 50 years of data on molestation claims concluded the number of new cases is declining,

the church is still paying a heavy price for predatory clergy.

 

The abuse problem was already known to have cost dioceses more than $1 billion since 1950, including some expenses

 paid last year. Still, Teresa Kettelkamp, director of the bishops' Office of Child and Youth Protection, said the total abuse-

related expenses shelled out in 2005 were likely the largest ever for a single year.

 

The total number of accusations against Catholic clergy now stands at more than 12,000 since 1950.

The latest statistics were released as part of the third audit U.S. bishops commissioned to restore trust in their leadership

after abuse allegations soared in 2002. Auditors found that 88.5 percent of dioceses had put in place full safeguards for

children required by the bishops' reforms.

However, advocates for victims called the audit inadequate, since 104 of the 195 American dioceses conducted a "self-

audit." In previous years, teams from the Gavin Group, a private firm led by former FBI agent William Gavin, had

 conducted onsite audits in all participating dioceses.   MARCH 2006

"DELIVER US FROM EVIL"  (Lionsgate Films)- the expose about one of the most notorious

living pedophile priests in the catholic church  including the role that Cardinal Roger Mahoney

of the Diocese of Los Angeles played in this priest's twenty year rampage of raping boys and girls in

California.  Congratulations also to the victims for the strength to come forward and accuse, prosecute

and incarcerate this monster. However after only 7 years served of a much longer sentence, church

lawyers, with the knowledge of Cardinal Mahoney, struck a deal with the court, and had him deported

to his home country of Ireland free and clear, and provided him with a church paid pension. Producer

Amy Berg tracked him down in Ireland and conducted her shocking interviews for this film. Shortly after

this film was released,  Fr. Oliver O'Grady fled and is unaccounted for by law enforcement or

his victims and future victims.

I keep getting some creepy feelings that their is something inside the bowels of the Catholic Church

or the organization of men priests that allows sexual exploitation of children.  Maybe some unspoken

code of secrecy...that if you do this for God you get little boy butt.  Ever think about the short dress

uniforms that the little girls wear.  Talk about mini skirts...now I see why.

Remember Father Bruce Ritter?
Broken Covenant: The Secret Life of Father Bruce Ritter

Charles Sennott, the New York Post reporter who broke the scandal.  The book, Broken Covenant,
describes the rise and fall of Father Bruce Ritter. Beginning in the 1970s, Ritter,  a Franciscan priest,
founded Covenant House, a series of shelters for runaway or homeless youth in the United States, Canada,
and Central America. At the same time, Ritter was creating a personal empire and  tapping into a million
dollar slush fund to seduce young men. Ritter was forced to resign in 1990 after 15 young men came for-
ward and described an identical pattern of sexual abuse by the priest.  He also tells sick stories about

raising money  and doing other little tricks he learned from ole Father Bruce.


 

A sickly old priest was murdered in a Massachusetts prison. But that's alright because he was a child

molester. Murdering sickly old child molesters is a perfectly legitimate entertainment in America...or

at least a certain type of people think it is.

 

The victim, John J. Geoghan, was housed in a tightly monitored, locked protective unit. Only the

guards had the keys. Only the guards are given the opportunity of giving a story. Are you gullible

enough to believe them?

 

Somehow, a murderer got into the protective custody unit. Somehow, he got into the old man's cell.

Somehow he managed to lock the door. Supposedly that was to keep the guards from interrupting

the murder.

dishonest--but the myth--persistent, persuasive and unrealistic."

Survey: 4,450 priests accused

Monday, February 16, 2004 Posted: 11:12 PM EST(0412 GMT)  aol.com news

Bishop: 'Very sobering and important milestone'
NEW YORK (CNN) -- Children accused more than 4,000 priests of sexual abuse between
1950 and 2002, according to a draft survey commissioned by the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops.

The survey, to be released February 27, found that children made more than 11,000 allegations of
sexual abuse by priests. The 4,450 accused priests represent about 4 percent of the 110,000 priests
who served during the 52 years covered by the study.

The report is based on a nationwide survey of church records, and was compiled by the John Jay
College of Criminal Justice for the conference. The bishops' conference commissioned the survey to
get a better understanding of the scope of the crisis.

More than half of the accused priests had only one allegation against them. Nearly 25 percent, or
1,112 priests, had two or three allegations, and almost 13 percent, or 578 priests, had four to nine
allegations, according to the draft report. Nearly 3 percent, or 133 of the priests, had 10 or more
allegations.

The report said that 6,700 of the 11,000 allegations were investigated and substantiated, and
another 1,000 were unsubstantiated. The remaining 3,300 were not investigated because the priests
involved had died by the time the allegation was made.  The director of the Survivors Network of
Those Abused by Priests said Monday that the survey's numbers are low.

"Bishops have tried to hide this for years, so there is no reason to believe all of a sudden they would
change their ways," David Clohessy said. "The only prudent thing to do is to assume this is not the
entire truth. This is a survey, not a report or investigation."

SNAP, founded in 1989, describes itself on its Web site as the nation's largest, oldest and most active
support group for people victimized by religious authority figures.  The president of the U.S.
Conference of Catholic Bishops issued a written statement calling the reports "a very sobering and
important milestone."

"I have not seen the reports, and so I cannot comment on their substance," the statement from Bishop
Wilton D. Gregory said. "But I want to reaffirm that the bishops requested these studies so that we
could understand as fully as possible what caused this terrible occurrence in the life of our community
to make sure that it never happens again.

"Although it counts the number of children who have been abused, the number of priests who have
abused children, the total financial cost to the church, it does not chronicle the number of bishops who
knowingly re-assigned priests who had abused children," said Steve Krueger.

"Without that kind of investigation, there can be no accountability," Krueger said.

The editor of the National Catholic Reporter agreed the church scandal is not just about sex.

"This has long ceased to be just a scandal about sex abuse. It's a scandal about abuse of power and
trust, and a breech of faith with people," said Tom Roberts.

According to the survey, 78 percent of those abused were between 11 and 17, 16 percent were 8 to
10, and nearly 6 percent were 7 or younger.  The survey also said that several factors contributed to
the problem, including failure to grasp its gravity, overemphasis on the avoidance of scandal, use of
unqualified treatment centers, misguided willingness to forgive and insufficient accountability.

San Diego diocese files Chapter 11

By ALLISON HOFFMAN, Associated Press WriterWed Feb 28, 2007

The Roman Catholic Diocese of San Diego filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection a few hours before it was to go to trial Wednesday in the first of more than 140 lawsuits accusing priests of sexual abuse.

The bankruptcy filing, put in at five minutes to midnight, automatically halted the court proceedings.

In a letter posted on the diocese's Web site, Bishop Robert H. Brom said the diocese made its decision because any damage awards in the earlier trials could deplete "diocesan and insurance resources" and leave nothing for other victims.

The diocese claimed in the filing late Tuesday $95.7 million in property holdings and another $60.4 million in liquid assets, including stocks, bonds and operating accounts.

San Diego is the fifth diocese in the nation to file for bankruptcy protection.

Diocese officials and lawyers for the plaintiffs failed to reach a settlement during two days of negotiations that ended Monday in Los Angeles Superior Court.

The diocese had called plaintiffs' lawyers on Tuesday morning to make a "final and best" settlement offer, Micheal Webb, a lawyer for the diocese said. He declined to specify how much the church had offered but said it was higher than total settlements reached in other dioceses in the United States.

German Cardinal Sees More Priest Sex Abuse Charges (Reuters)  A recent raft of child sex abuse
charges against Catholic priests in Germany -- part of a growing list of sex scandals which have
rocked the Church worldwide -- may only be the tip of the iceberg, a cardinal said Monday.
- Jul 22 2:49 PM ET

WELLINGTON, New Zealand - The head of a Roman Catholic religious order said Thursday
he was horrified by allegations of child sexual abuse by priests from the order.

Peter Burke, head of the St. John of God Order in Australia and New Zealand, is in the southern
city of Christchurch meeting 25 men who claim they were sexually abused in the 1960s and 1970s
by priests in a boarding school run by the order.

"I'm absolutely horrified and it's tearing me apart, but I'm determined to deal with it and bring it
to some resolution," he told National Radio. "I'm hearing stories of lives that have been devastated,"
Burke said.  The allegations involved children as young as eight or 10 "which is despicable."  7/18/02

Pedophilia

There is a great deal of fear of the stranger who kidnaps the child from the street. Most acts of convicted

pedophiles, however, take place between the child and a family acquaintance, neighbor, or relative. The

acts usually occur in the child's own home or during a voluntary visit of the child to the home of the pedophile.

There are different types of pedophiles (Langevin 1990:108). Some are heterosexual, while others may be

 homosexual or bisexual pedophiles who interact with minors of both sexes.

There are some interesting demographics on the pedophile. The convicted molester is typically older than

 those in any other class of sex offenders, with the average age being thirty-seven. The majority of those

convicted are married. Despite their marital status, they are usually uneasy in adult social relations, not to

 mention sexual ones, being more comfortable with children than adults. Convicted pedophiles are highly

 Victorian (often feeling guilt-ridden) and rigid in their own sexual attitudes. They generally believe in the

double standard and are often highly religious.   http://members.aol.com/nonracists/dvparphl.html 

 

"Chemical castration is an ideal punishment for sex offenders. When Depo-Provera is administered, recidivism rates

 fall to 5%. Their sexual fantasies are lessened as a result of the reduction of testosterone levels. Although men

administered this drug are capable of having sexual intercourse, many people argue that chemical castration is cruel

and unusual punishment. This argument is countered by the fact that sex offenders are required to get injections only

once a month. What is 'cruel and unusual' is allowing sex offenders to attack innocent women and children. This

effective therapy will protect future victims. It is an 'offender friendly' way of reducing sexual violence."

 -- LaLaunie Hayes, California State University at Northridge

 
The Chemical Knife

Once referred to as a form of mutilation by the American Civil Liberties Union, a reference to the Eighth Amendment to the Bill of Rights (which says, "Excessive bail shall not be required, nor excessive fines imposed, nor cruel and unusual punishments inflicted"), chemical castration is slowly gaining ground throughout the country as a means of sentencing and treating sex offenders.

A Roman Catholic priest was shot and seriously wounded by a man who had accused him of abuse nine
years ago, authorities said Tuesday. Dontee Stokes, 26, surrendered Monday night, saying he had
shot the Rev. Maurice Blackwell, police spokeswoman Ragina Averella said. Blackwell was in serious
but stable condition Tuesday at the University of Maryland Shock Trauma Center.

The alleged victim has been identified by authorities as a 24-year-old man who says Shanley raped and
molested him in the rectory, the bathroom and even the confessional booth between 1983 and 1990
while Shanley served at St. Jean Parish in Newton.

A source close to the case has identified the man as Paul Busa, who, until recently, had been a military
police officer with the Air Force in Colorado. Busa has publicly accused Shanley of molesting him, but he
did not appear at a news conference Thursday with other alleged victims of the retired priest.

The Archdiocese of Boston officials have turned over internal documents that said Shanley had publicly
advocated sex between men and boys and that church officials had known since 1967 about allegations
of sexual abuse leveled against him.

Some critics have demanded the resignation of Cardinal Bernard Law, the archbishop of Boston, because
he moved Shanley from parish to parish even as the allegations mounted. Some critics have demanded the
resignation of Cardinal Bernard Law, the archbishop of Boston, because he moved Shanley from parish to
parish even as the allegations mounted.

Law has been ordered to testify Wednesday at a hearing in a civil suit brought by 86 alleged victims of priests.

Sporting long hair, sideburns and casual clothing, Shanley ran the ministry for eight years, during which he
attracted widely favorable attention in the local community for embracing ostracized minorities, including
runaways, drug abusers, drifters and teen-agers struggling with their sexuality.

Referred to as a "street priest," Shanley rode a motorcycle and openly questioned church teachings, including
the Catholic Church's admonition against homosexuality. He often clashed with his superiors, including the late
Cardinal  Humberto Medeiros.

List of up to 250 boys found, officials say

BOSTON, Massachusetts (The Boston Herald) -- Hit yesterday with a massive 122-count indictment alleging
he molested or disseminated pornography to 29 boys, Middleton youth worker Christopher J. Reardon could face
additional charges if investigators convince other victims to testify, sources said. ``(The investigation) isn't over,''
said one source. ``We're hoping to convince some other victims to testify against him.''

Reardon, 28, who ran the CCD program and youth ministry at St. Agnes Church in his native Middleton, is the
focus of what could be the largest prosecution of a child sex abuse case in state history.  The prosecutors por-
trayed Reardon as a calculating predator who convinced children he was their ``friend'' and got
some of his alleged victims to recruit ``their uninitiated friends to join in the `fun.''

Reardon, a former Boy Scout leader, allegedly would first create a ``titillating atmosphere'' by showing his victims
pornography, then gradually introduce them to mutual touching, masturbation and sexual devices, before convincing
some of them to engage in intercourse and oral sex with him.

But investigators said they found a computer list in Reardon's bedroom that contained the names of as many as 250
boys between the ages of 5 and 14 and graphic descriptions of their bodies.

 

AND FROM THE CATHOLIC HOUSE OF THE LORD
Sex Abuse Victims Urge Mandatory Sensitivity Training For New Priests
SNAP Asks For Chance To Talk With 20+ Newly Ordained Clerics
Group Writes To All California Catholic Bishops

Leaders of the nation's largest support group for clergy molestation victims are asking all California
Catholic bishops to hold mandatory sensitivity training session for newly ordained priests involving men
and women who have been sexually abused by clergy.

In the next few weeks, roughly 21 priests will be ordained in California dioceses.  The ordination
ceremonies are performed once a year.

In a letter to all 12 bishops of California Dioceses, SNAP (the Survivors Network of those Abused
by Priests) says that it's crucial that new priests be required to hear victims' stories. Such sessions
would help victims heal and better protect children from abuse in the future, the support group maintains.
SNAP believes victims of clergy abuse may be more apt to reach out to new priests for help and want to
make sure that all priests are trained to respond sensitively to victims of abuse.  SNAPnetwork.org

 

I think back to the insane feelings that I have when I go into the dark awareness of what I study and the

power of negative forces.  The dead feeling I got when I talked to men of the cloth


As if things are not bad enough while I am working on these last chapter...it comes out in the press
that A group of parents sexually molested and photographed their own children and swapped pictures
over the Internet, forming what one man called "the club," said U.S. Customs Service officials who
announced charges Friday against 10 Americans and 10 Europeans.   It is reported that forty-five
young children were molested, including 37 American children ranging in age from 2 to about 14,
said Customers Commissioner Robert C. Bonner.  He said these crimes "Are despicable and re-
pugnant.

It was reported that most of those charged where men and one woman.  What was so very dis-
turbing was that the majority of the people who were charged were the parents who were sexually
exploiting their own children.  Most of the people met in online chat rooms and traded pics.  Men
requested photographs of children in specific sexual poses.  One asked for an audiotape so he
could hear a child crying while being spanked, the indictment said.

The investigation began when the international charity Save the Children found a picture on the Internet that
appeared to show a child being molested and reported it to Danish authorities.

 Danish police found information on the Jensens' computer that was forwarded to the U.S. Customs Service
and led to Emmerson's arrest. A search of his computer led to more arrests, officials said. Emmerson's lawyer,
H. Ronald Sawl, did not immediately return a call seeking comment.

 The other Americans facing charges include: Paul Whitmore of San Diego, who has pleaded innocent to
related charges; Brooke Rowland, San Diego, who also has pleaded innocent; Tracy Reynolds, Longview,
Texas; Leslie Peter Bowcut, Burley, Idaho; Michael David Harland, West Palm Beach, Fla.; Harry Eldon
Tschernetzki, Spokane, Wash.; John Zill, Greeneville, S.C.; and Craig Davidson, Chanute, Kan.

An 11th American, Sean Bradley of Reno, Nev., committed suicide prior to the filing of formal charges, said
Customs  special agent Mike Netherlands.

LA cardinal apologizes to plaintiffs

By GILLIAN FLACCUS, Associated Press 

Cardinal Roger Mahony, leader of the nation's largest Roman Catholic archdiocese, apologized Sunday to the hundreds of people who will get a share of a $660 million settlement over allegations of clergy sex abuse.

"There really is no way to go back and give them that innocence that was taken from them. ... The one thing I wish I could give the victims, I cannot," he said.  "Once again, I apologize to anyone who has been offended, who has been abused. ... It should not have happened and should not ever happen again."

Mahony said that he has met in the past 14 months with dozens of people alleging clergy abuse and that those meetings helped him understand the importance of a quick resolution to what he called a "terrible sin and crime."  The settlement will not affect the archdiocese's core ministry, Mahony said, but the church will have to sell buildings, use some of its invested funds and borrow money. The archdiocese will not sell any parish property, he said.

"We gather today because this long journey has now come to an end, and a new chapter of that journey is beginning," Mahony told reporters.

The deal between the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Los Angeles and more than 500 alleged victims of clergy sexual abuse reached late Saturday is by far the largest payout since the nationwide clergy abuse scandal emerged in 2002 in Boston.

The settlement also calls for the release of priests' confidential personnel files after review by a judge. According to Tod Tamberg, spokesman for the archdiocese, the settlement had not required Mahony to make his public apology.

Mass. girls may have made pact to get pregnant

By MELISSA TRUJILLO, Associated Press WriterFri Jun 20, 08

The girls showed up repeatedly at the high school health clinic, asking for pregnancy tests. But their reactions to the test results were puzzling: high-fives if they were expecting, long faces if they weren't.

School officials in this hard-luck New England fishing town say an alarming 17 girls — four times the usual number — became pregnant this year. And even more disturbing: Some of the girls may have made a pact to have babies and raise them together.

"A typical girl you would think would say, `Oh my God! What am I going to do now? How am I going to support this baby? How am I going to finish school?'" Superintendent Christopher Farmer said. "These young women clearly have not seen that."

The story exploded after Joseph Sullivan, the principal of Gloucester High School, was quoted by Time magazine this week as saying the girls confessed to making such a pact. Sullivan was on vacation Friday and did not return calls for comment.

The superintendent said he had no independent confirmation of a pact. But he added: "What we do know is there was a group of students being tested for pregnancy on a regular basis, which would suggest they were not taking steps to avoid becoming pregnant, and that when some of them had their babies, they appeared to be very pleased."

None of the girls or their families have come forward to confirm any type of pact, and school and health officials have not identified any of the youngsters.

The girls are all 16 or under, nearly all of them sophomores. The superintendent said they have been reluctant to identify the fathers, many of whom are older. But one of them "is a 24-year-old homeless guy," the principal was quoted as telling Time.

Only criminals, warns Andrew Vachss.  Read more of this at:

Anytime the issue of "censorship" raises its head, the result is a virtual stampede of
opposition—anyone perceived to be in favors is quickly consigned to the lunatic fringe. But
when abstract principles are applied to ground-zero problems, rhetoric often falls short of
reality's need. A case in point is the debate over "child pornography," a phenomenon more
easily denounced than defined.

 

November of 2005 CNN reports that 1 in 5 children are solicited for sex online.
