The Roman Catholic church must really hate the way and speed that uncensored information can be shared on the Internet these days.
On a daily basis we are getting reports of world wide coverups of pedophilia within the Roman Catholic church. Their holier than thou image has becomes more tarnish as more of the truth is made available from countries such as: Australia, New Zealand, UK, USA, Germany, Switzerland, Ireland and others.
I had a friend (now deceased) here in Australia who used to tell me of the horrors that him and other small boys went through at the hands (is that the correct word?) of some of these Roman Catholic priests.
The sad part is that many of these revelations have come too late for many of these children. We learn that these same rotten crimes against children are still being perpetrated by Roman Catholic priest today, and still covered up by some of the heads of the church. One can only imagine the damage to these small minds that have already been done by these self proclaimed virtuous monsters. Most of these children have no protection at all, and I would think it pointless for them to report it to someone that had possibly committed the same atrocities on helpless children themselves.
The Roman Catholic church rules through fear and brain washing. They first of all create a problem, then offer the only solution, provided you follow the dictates of the Roman Catholic church completely, and without question.
Thankfully in this enlightened age people are waking up to the the fanciful myths that keep changing to control the gullible.
No longer can the Roman Catholic church have me hung, drawn and quartered, or burnt at the stake (for my own good of course, to save my soul) and I suspect provide light entertainment for the clergy and the parishioners for speaking out against them.
I might go to Hell I here you say? Perish the thought! Hell would most probably be full of pedophile Roman Catholic priests.
