Has anyone ever seen the documentary Deliver Us From Evil? I'd love to see it but it is hard to get hold of.
"Over 100,000 victims of clergy sexual abuse have come forward in the United States alone"
"Since 1950, sexual abuse has cost to the US Catholic Church over one billion dollars in legal settlements and expenses"
"Most countries are just beginning to report clergy abuse"
"Pope Benedict XVI was accused of conspiracy to cover up sexual abuse in the United States. At the Vatican's request, President George W. Bush granted the pope immunity from prosecution"

I think that whatever we're told, the real truth is that none of us really understands the sheer scale of this thing. My original posting (which it seems only one or two people found offensive) seems to be closer to the truth than even I dared to realize. For those who did miss it, I posted a photo of the current Pope and labeled the photo as "Leader of one of the biggest pedophile rings in the world". The more I look into it, the more it just confirms and reconfirms itself. If you found my original posting offensive then bloody shame on you! Perhaps you'll spare a thought for the seemingly endless numbers of children that have been systematically raped and their abusers institutionally protected even to this very day by a truly vile "old boys club" of perverts and deluded hypocrites.
