why aren't parishioners up in arms? why are the masses ignoring this? oh sure, i can see if it was one or two priests. there are pedophiles everywhere, in every part of society. but no. it's NOT one or two. it's, well, we have NO idea how many it is. it was and most likely still is rampant. you cannot ignore this. you MUST demand action AND justice from the catholic church all the way up to your precious pope
Church Was Warned About Priest, Doctor Says
By NICHOLAS KULISH and KATRIN BENNHOLD
ESSEN, Germany — The German archdiocese led by the future Pope Benedict XVI ignored repeated warnings in the early 1980s by a psychiatrist treating a priest accused of sexually abusing boys that he should not be allowed to work with children, the psychiatrist said Thursday.
“I said, ‘For God’s sake, he desperately has to be kept away from working with children,’ ” the psychiatrist, Dr. Werner Huth, said in a telephone interview from Munich. “I was very unhappy about the entire story.”
Dr. Huth said he was concerned enough that he set three conditions for treating the priest, the Rev. Peter Hullermann: that he stay away from young people and alcohol and be supervised by another priest at all times.
Dr. Huth said he issued the explicit warnings — both written and oral — before the future pope, then Joseph Ratzinger, archbishop of Munich and Freising, left Germany for a position in the Vatican in 1982..............

If it was a company, charity, or other type organization with THIS kind of history of child abuse....ALONG with covering it up and KEEPING THE ABUSE ACTIVE, they would have been shut down a long long time ago.
But it's a church, so it's ok.
Sad but true.
only because it's the CATHOLIC church (i think any mainstream judeao-christian religion could and most likely DOES get away with it)
as the red queen said: OFF WITH THEIR EFFING HEADS
