HA HA: Pope Never Got the Memo on Child Sex Abuse
by UK TELEGRAPH
(March 26, 2010) The Vatican has defended the Pope over charges that he failed to act against a priest accused of abusing 200 deaf boys The Vatican has defended the Pope over charges that he failed to act against allegations of sex abuse.
A Vatican newspaper editorial said the claims were an "ignoble" attack on the Pope and that there was no "cover-up", the BBC reports.
Archbishops had complained about Fr Lawrence Murphy in the 1990s to a Vatican office led by the future pope, but apparently received no response.
But the Pope's spokesman defended him, saying the Vatican department which the future pontiff was in charge of had not been informed of these latest allegations until 1996 - 20 years after the priest's victims first informed the police.
Arthur Budzinski is one of Father Murphy's alleged victims. He said that the first time the priest molested him, he was 12 years old, alone and away from home at a school for the deaf. He said he asked the Rev. Lawrence Murphy to hear his confession, and instead the priest took him into a closet under the stairs and sexually assaulted him.
Father Murphy was also accused of molesting boys in the confessional, in dormitories, in closets and during field trips while working at theschool for the deaf from the 1950s through 1974. He died in 1998 at age 72.
Allegations against Father Murphy resurfaced this week after documents obtained by The New York Times apparently showed that he was spared a defrocking in the mid-1990s because he was protected by the Vatican office led by Cardinal Joseph Ratzinger, now the Pope.
The Vatican strongly defended its decision not to defrock Father Murphy and denounced what it called a campaign to smear the Pope and his aides.
Keeping all biases aside, there is an attack on Christianity by the elite. This isn't to condone the CC, they are low on my list of favorite rankings of favorite religions. But the larger point is the elite will soon be burning books and among them all versions of the bible.

I really wish more people could see this. It is true that Vatican II essentially gutted the Catholic church, and it is true that there are gay leaders/priests and pedophiles in the clergy there, that is also true of ANY OTHER ORGANIZATION ON EARTH. You could do this same kind of thing (easily) if you went after the DNC, or RNC or your local Rotary Club. Truth is that Catholics, like all Christians, abhor pedophilia and sexual abuse. To the very core, just like the rest of us.
It's funny how the critical eye towards government persecution always ceases to be critical when somebody's favorite target is suddenly in the government sites. It's "no no no, they're all liars" when the government is gunning for us, but if they turn around and use the same tactics, smear, lies and trickery against Catholics, well then, that's just hippy dippy cool.
We have to stop having tunnel vision. The government is out to fully control us all, period, full stop. If we allow Divide & Conquer to work, that is exactly what they'll get, full control.
To those Catholics who remember the early 60s, once Vatican II was ushered in all vestiges of Fr. Coughlin where shuffled out the back door. Putting aside the brutality of Catholic school that I felt, the lessons that were taught was the communism was an evil and Hollywood producers had an agenda See the Legion of Decency”
