If this is proven, I for one will not be purchasing anything that supoorts the catholic church. No more meal tickets, no more raffle tickets, no more nothing. I am not catholic I have just always purchased because of the kids. But I can no longer be a part of something that condones behavior like that! news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20100324/ap_on_re_eu/eu_church_abuse_25

I am Catholic and for my part I hope there is an outside investigation by the legal authorities and if the allegations are found to be true, long prison terms are handed out. I like the Catholic religion for its long traditions and ceremony and, yes reverence. And when people like this ply their sick, evil influence toward the abuse of children, death is too good for them.

PS: Don't be so quick to boycott your local church raffles. Certain ones benefit only the local scholarship fund and one or two other local things. Boycotting those only hurt the young people in your own home town. Just make sure you know where the money is going before you part with it.

Exactly secretagentman .. don't take it out on the innocent... that's what the perverted priests and their protectors did.. just go for removal (and execution via long slow torture) the bastards responsible.. (same for the perverts who are cruel to animals)
and another thing, I could never boycott those sweet and talented Catholic Ladies that do the Kolache bake sales...

molestation happens everywhere, but for some reason they like to point fingers at the catholic church. take out the bad ones, but don't bring down the church's name. they have a good foundation.
the religious war is coming, are you ready? i truly believe it will be the end all of wars.

The church has scrambled to cover up the molestations for decades AND rather than deal with the abusers in a fashion that would prevent the continued abuses of their financeers or parishoners they shuffle these sick pukes around so they can continue to abuse. Garden variety abusers are one thing while abusers in the position of spiritual power are in a disgusting, unacceptable and what should be a severely punishble group of their own. Since the church isn't dealing w/the situation any and all immunities to legal recourse should be discarded and the violaters should be treated like anyother pedophile via our legal system.

"i dont understand why they are above the law have not be punished."
Two possibilities. The Roman Catholic Church is considered a sovereign in and of itself. The priests have immunity in every country just like diplomats do. Those are the only two "guesses" that I could venture.

Let me add something here. As we hate this behavior as much as we do, maybe the Catholic hiearchy would get the message if we punished them with something they hate with *their* every fiber. The death penalty. Putting a couple of those sick priests to death for the crime of sexual abuse of a child might get their attention.

I love my Catholic Friends.... but it seems the Church also is a supporter of Illegal Immigrants.... and all things socialist.. and Anarchy ... Look up Father Michael Pfleger. and the creators of the obama - Rev Wright religion revison, who created and promote "Black Liberation Theology".... melts your heart, don't it...

Endorsing Amnesty and opposing Arizona's Immigration Law, plus their cover up on the molesters has about done it with me having any respect for Catholicism or Catholics who support the Church's Stance...
