Wow. Awesome. I'm staggered by the level of denial.
Did you read the Grand Jury report? It was scathing against the Roman Catholic church and its officials who dodged the inquiry, fought the release of evidence and protected suspected pederast priests at all costs.
From the article...
Allegations against (Monsignor) Lynn resulted from a 124-page grand jury report that concludes, "Apparent abusers - dozens of them, we believe - remain on duty in the Archdiocese, today, with open access to new young prey.""They did in fact re-offend," said Philadelphia District Attorney Seth Williams. "They did in fact rape and sodomize other children."...
I'm stunned you would see that as anything less than an indictment against a church that harbors, defends, protects and promotes active pedophiles.
While it is certainly stun material . . . there's really no need to be stunned.
All we need to realize is that the RC's use their DAFFYNITIONARY 24/7/365 and all the more so in such matters. It doesn't matter what words the Grand Jury uses from the regular dictionary.
The RC's, just as they have done for 1600 years with mangling and rubberizing history and Scripture, by now it's quite easy to rubberize and mangle the Grand Jury Report. It's probably auto-mangled by their optic nerves before it ever gets to their brains. The compulsion is so genetic by now.
Therefore in terms of the RC DAFFYNITIONARY,
for the agents of Mary . . .
sodomy = Salutatory Ongoing Demonstrable Oscillations Marvelously Youthful in behalf of training proper spiritual vulnerabilities to "FATHER AUTHORITARIAN !!!!CONTROL!!!!" memes.
I'll stop there with the examples from the RC DAFFYNITIONARY. I don't have the stomach to go further.
You misunderstood me. I meant that they were not out to get the Church. That they’re report was based on fact and not on any personal vendetta or by anti Catholicism. I did not mean that the findings of the report were not scathing. They were. I was defending the Grand Jury.
