The group known as the "Roman Catholic Faithful" has put its report on "Saint Sebastian's Angels" back up.

Here is what they say on their web site:

"In light of recent ongoing scandals being brought to light, many visitors to our site have asked that we make this information about an internet-based homosexual priest ring available once again. It is graphic and offensive. Prayerful discretion is advised."

For those interested HERE is their web site. BEWARE. Believe them when they say the pictures are graphic and offensive.

But more damning were numerous documents revealing that Bernard Cardinal Law, his predecessor, Humberto Cardinal Medeiros, and other archdiocesean officials were aware of Shanley's behavior as far back as 1967, but continued to assign him to posts that put him in direct contact with children.

That's all I need to know. The heirarchy MUST BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE!!! This is sooo infuriating. From what I read in the paper this morning, the Cardinals are rolling over.

I'm just curious why no one has posted anything about the explosion in a NYC building:

CLICK HERE

I did a search and couldn't find it. Has it been posted and yanked? Yes/ no? If so, why?

``It certainly was not some kind of a man-boy group,'' said the man, who goes by the pseudonym of Socrates.

I'm at a loss for words.

NWS, is it possible that Law's chancellor bypassed him and protected Shanley? Could this explain the mountain of activities the Catholic bishops have endorsed of a counter-doctrinal nature over the past decades?

I'm not one bit surprised.This INFILTRATION has been going on for some time and in all religious organizations just for the purpose of tearing down organized religion.

"``There were social workers, psychiatrists, ministers and even law enforcement personnel. At that time, these issues could be discussed in an objective forum. You can't do that now.''"

What walking excrement.

The above can be translated two different ways:

1) "Gee, like, ya know..............we could bugger little boys back then, but it was so repugnant a thought that no one was hip to what we were doing......and we got away with it. DAMN the publicity!"

OR

2) "You know, back then, everyone was, like, you know, cool with the idea of grown men sticking it to little boys. Now, it's, like, you know, as if we're doing something wrong. We are just so..............constrained now, ya know???"

I don't know who "Socrates" is, but I'll recommend a cure for his "disease": a .45 round to the temple.

Where is Fr. Shanley? Last I've heard he couldn't be found. Where is he and who is helping him? There should be a national manhunt for him. Millions were spent to find Eric Rudolph, but so far not a word about finding Fr. Shanley. Why?

When I lived in Southern Illinois, almost every priest in the Belleville diocese was exposed as having sexually abused young males. They were not prosecuted. They were wisked away for some sort of "therapy" and reassigned after their therapy. I assume the families were paid off in some settlement. This has been going on for centuries with the full knowledge and approval of the pope and the church heirarchy. Even now, the RCC and the Pope will not show these perverted reprobates the door the minute they are proven to have sexually molested a child or adolescent. They are going to wait until its a proven "pattern of behavior." Imagine all of the abuse cases that never see the light of day in other countries because of the culture, or even in America because the shame and embarrassment the victim would feel if it became public.

A celibate priesthood is both unnatural and unscriptural as a requirement for ministry. If, however, someone chooses that lifestyle, then that is fine. There were no priests (as a special church office) in the New Testament as there had been in the Old Testament--and the bishops-pastors-elders were commanded to be married [Old Testament priests were married also]. We need neither a priest nor a pope. Christ is our high priest and all believers are priests who can go directly to God with their prayers and confessions of sin.

Hebrews 7:22 by so much more Jesus has become a surety of a better covenant. 23 Also there were many priests, because they were prevented by death from continuing. 24 But He, because He continues forever, has an unchangeable priesthood. 25 Therefore He is also able to save to the uttermost those who come to God through Him, since He always lives to make intercession for them. 26 For such a High Priest was fitting for us, [who] [is] holy, harmless, undefiled, separate from sinners, and has become higher than the heavens; 27 who does not need daily, as those high priests, to offer up sacrifices, first for His own sins and then for the people's, for this He did once for all when He offered up Himself. 28 For the law appoints as high priests men who have weakness, but the word of the oath, which came after the law, [appoints] the Son who has been perfected forever. 8:1 Now [this] [is] the main point of the things we are saying: We have such a High Priest , who is seated at the right hand of the throne of the Majesty in the heavens, 1 Timothy 2:5 For [there] [is] one God and one Mediator between God and men, [the] Man Christ Jesus,

Rev.1:5 and from Jesus Christ, the faithful witness, the firstborn from the dead, and the ruler over the kings of the earth. To Him who loved us and washed us from our sins in His own blood, 6 and has made us kings and priests to His God and Father, to Him [be] glory and dominion forever and ever. Amen.

1 Peter 2:5 you also, as living stones, are being built up a spiritual house, a holy priesthood , to offer up spiritual sacrifices acceptable to God through Jesus Christ.6 Therefore it is also contained in the Scripture, "Behold, I lay in Zion A chief cornerstone, elect, precious, And he who believes on Him will by no means be put to shame." 7 Therefore, to you who believe, [He] [is] precious; but to those who are disobedient, "The stone which the builders rejected Has become the chief cornerstone," 8 and "A stone of stumbling And a rock of offense." They stumble, being disobedient to the word, to which they also were appointed. 9 But you [are] a chosen generation, a royal priesthood , a holy nation, His own special people, that you may proclaim the praises of Him who called you out of darkness into His marvelous light; 10 who once [were] not a people but [are] now the people of God, who had not obtained mercy but now have obtained mercy.

1 Timothy 3:2 A bishop then must be blameless, the husband of one wife , temperate, sober-minded, of good behavior, hospitable, able to teach;

1 Timothy 4:1 Now the Spirit expressly says that in latter times some will depart from the faith, giving heed to deceiving spirits and doctrines of demons, 2 speaking lies in hypocrisy, having their own conscience seared with a hot iron, 3 forbidding to marry, [and] [commanding] to abstain from foods which God created to be received with thanksgiving by those who believe and know the truth.

1 Timothy 2:5 For [there] [is] one God and one Mediator between God and men, {i.e.:not Mary}[the] Man Christ Jesus,
