Rape children all you want and cover it up, just don’t break the seal of confession.

That is an astonishingly ignorant remark.

Father David Verhasselt, a priest in the parish of St. Catherine of Alexandria Church in the diocese of Milwaukee, has been placed on administrative leave because he is under investigation for breaking the seal of confession. The article begins with a statement about the abuse crisis within the Catholic Church, but doesn't say how it's connected to this story. Did Fr. Verhasselt hear a confession about abuse and ratted on the confessor, or is the connection only in that the issues (sexual abuse and "breaking the seal") are both considered scandalous?

Do you feel the same way about Attorney/Client and Doctor/Patient privilege?

Wow, it usually takes at least 3 post before the Catholic bashers arrive.

The beloved Church chose it’s own protection over that of the flock. That is a sin, and a damn shame. It is that which is bringing down the Church, not the “haters”.

It pays to know the meaning of the words you use.
Confessor = the priest hearing a confession.
Penitent = the repentant sinner making the confession.

Thanks for the correction. Where do I pick up my check?

1. Any faith that believes its okay to keep child rape a secret is evil.
2. Attorney/Client privilege does not protect committing a crime or tort.
3. Doctor/Patient privilege also does not include protecting those who are actively committing crimes.

Reading other Catholic threads..this bashing has been going on for weeks...they sure don’t like it when articles are posted against their church.

the Catholic bashers Yes. We should not talk about pedophile rapes, and those who enable them. Our greatest concern must remain on quashing concern. All else is trivial. Truly, the greatest sin is against the Church.

Are you Catholic?
What difference does it make?
A satan worshiper or atheist could objectively look at the situation and give a more accurate opinion about the situation than what is coming from the RCC.
