More shocking revelations regarding the church or maybe the church should simply be called 'the pedophile ring'. This is so widespread logic dictates it is not isolated to one area or one religious sect. This is widespread global abuse. How do christians feel about their 10% wages supporting global pedophile rings?

DUBLIN, Ireland — Police officers, government officials and bishops of the Catholic church in Ireland have been harshly censured in a report on clerical child abuse over three decades in the Archdiocese of Dublin. Coming just a few months after an equally harsh report on the ill-treatment of children in Church-run industrial schools, the latest revelations have shocked Catholics and non-Catholics alike throughout the island.

An official commission investigated 320 allegations against a sample of 46 out of 183 priests from 1975 to 2004. It found that several cardinals and bishops protected criminal priests while taking no action to protect children.

Responding to the report, Ireland’s Justice Minister Dermot Ahern said that “the era where evil people could do so under the cover of the cloth, facilitated and shielded from the consequences by their authorities, while the lives of children were ruined with such cruelty, is over for good.” He added: “The bottom line is this: A collar will protect no criminal.”


Before everyone jumps on the "this is just the catholic church" bandwagon I personally know people and know of people molested in other denominations -one I know of personally was southern baptist.

In the above article the church states "A collar will protect no criminal" yeah right.. what a load of B.S. Some of these priests protected by the Irish church are actually American catholic priests who were "banned" to Ireland...I encourage everyone to watch the documentary "Deliver Us from Evil" - it covers the California catholic sex abuse scandals of the early 2000s. The main offender, Father O'Grady admitted to raping multiple children, and he's a free man living in Ireland among free men, women and scarily, children.

The cover up goes all the way to the pope.

Could you imagine the ***** storm if it was "Irish Police and Atheist Group protected pedophile Non-Believers"?

The scandals will continue. I like to think of it as another nail in the coffin of christianity. I guess I lack the christian mindset that:

-god works in mysterious ways, there must be a reason his employees rape children
-the child raping priests are part of god's plan
-the raped children have suffered horribly but it is part of god's devine plan and ultimately they will be rewarded in heaven

I flat out reject the 'isolated incident' argument or the 'that doesn't happen anymore' argument or the 'systems are now in place' argument (systems are in place yet Father O'Grady is a free man? puhleeez)

but I'm sure I'll be flamed and the god squad will try to derail this thread asap. Posting relevant news, views and going against their beliefs = I am a troll attacking them.

There are abusers in every group- Satanist, Atheist, Christian, Jew, Muslim, *insert religion or cult here*, every group out there.

Reports like this make me suspect the PTB is using pedophiles as a tool to frighten and victimize people by letting them run around commiting crimes, how else do we explain the police standing by while children are being raped


Talk about people NOT doing their jobs.


The Winter Olympics are coming here soon in BC. Sex slaves will be brought in to pleasure wealthy wastes of semen. Even the RCMP admitted that they 'haven't done anything to prepare for this'


RCMP! YOU SUCK! DO YOUR JOBS!

It is a paedophile ring, and no ones doing anything about it because they'd rather try and accuse other organizations than do their own house cleaning. All Christian denominations alike are only concerned with their own image, or what's left it.

You never say anything about public school teachers? They molest children exponentially more than Priests but still you remain silent.

It makes me think that you have an agenda that really isn't about kids. And then you use that ridicules avatar as though you actually think you're being clever. You're not. That is like from the 80's for Avant garde so you really are not looking too cool there either.

Nobody cares what you think about Christianity either way but the way you protest makes me think that mommy or daddy bent you over their knee and made you recite scripture.

What on EARTH made you so intolerant of people who don't think like you? That's the weird part.

I have other sources but I need to find them. Either way this will get you started.

yadda yadda.. some teachers do it too (likely born again xtian teachers, and yes I'm being serious since the highest rates of child porn come from red states).. it is besides the point anyways.. disgusting you try to justify such a thing because someone else also does it. 2 wrongs don't make a right, and certainly not when it comes to children! puhlease...
