Archdiocese List of Accused Priests Remains Secret
Chicago Tribune ^ | April 1, 2011 | AP

The Archdiocese of St. Paul has a list of 33 priests accused of sexually abusing minors. But, unlike a similar list of priests revealed this week by St. John's Abbey in Collegeville, the St. Paul priests will remain unnamed.

St. John's released the names of 17 monks who have faced credible allegations of sexual abuse or misconduct as part of a lawsuit settlement.

Victims' rights advocates have pushed to make such lists public for years. Roman Catholic archdioceses in Milwaukee, Chicago and Baltimore are among those that have revealed the names of accused priests...

I apologize. Thought #57 was to me. I should go to sleep now.

I grew up. There really wasn’t any need for healing. I don’t hang on to garbage. I didn’t read the link. I’ll get to it tomorrow if I can. My brain won’t process any more this evening.

Good night!

Don’t be sorry. You post nasty things about other FReepers and then flutter away.

Forgot to respond to the my being more vigilant jab. That was one of the points I was trying to make. I am EXTREMELY cautious when it comes to my kids. They are safe in the Catholic Church. More so than if they were part of a scout program through the local public school or other such gathering. I homeschool my kids and we are raising them to be of strong faith. That is the most important thing in our house.

You can read all the sensational news you want about the Catholic Church but you aren’t living this faith on a daily basis. I see no reason for you to spend so much of your time trying to knock it to the ground. There are millions of Catholic families totally at peace with the Catholic Church. That should tell you something. I’m not a mindless robot. I don’t take orders from the Vatican. I don’t get an email with weekly talking points from Rome. We are an average family living life to the best of our abilities given to us by God.

That was what is known as the Flypaper Move in the game.

May God bless you and yours....

Goodnight.

Thousands of destroyed families and injured children know too late the emptiness of that assertion.

Three billion dollars paid out so far in settlements.

Rent and watch the DVD documentary, DELIVER US FROM EVIL.

And when the bait no longer works... the game ends.
