Then I suggest you re-read the Religion Forum guidelines on "mind-reading" other members, and why it's prohibited behavior.
"Affirming abuse" still doesn't make any sense. Affirm that it occurred? Affirm that it's a good thing? Obviously I don't think it's a "good thing".

No, I just don't find her story very believable. That's not a "Catholic thing"; any time I hear an adult complain that they'd had this and that illegal act committed against them, but never bothered to go to the police, I have trouble giving them much credibility.
And "Agnus Dei" (Latin for "Lamb of God") is the hymn that is sung at Mass before the distribution of communion.
"Opus Dei" (Latin for "Work of God") is an organization founded to help lay Catholics lead holier lives, principally by reflecting on their station in Christ as adopted sons and daughters of God through grace.
As I just explained to someone else “Agnus Dei” was a typo. Of course I meant “Opus Dei.”
