I agree with these remarks.

It is unfortunate that the institutional church did no hold itself to a higher standard in protecting children and avoid some of this but at the very least the church and any church leaders who are found to be enablers or facilitators to the sexual abuse of children must be held accountable in civil laws.

A civil window of one year will do a little to allow victim/surviovors of sexual abuse BY ANYONE their day of justice.

In Delaware we removed all statutes of limitation in regard to the sexual abuse of children and included a two year civil window for past childhood sexual abuse by anyone.

I urge all New Yorkers to support the proposed Child Victims Act in Albany on Tuesday.

All New York bishops and the New York Catholic Conference so be supporting it as well.

Call you representatives in Albany and tell them to support this bill.

Mr. Joe Saunders is 100% correct and factual.

The "Anti-Catholic" false and deflective charge(s), typically by evil and serial criminals like Roger M. Mahony, or his laity paid for armies of lawyers, or pr spin firms, or prpoaganda press sectretaries, or right wing attack dog - kool-aid drinking - entities like The Catholic League, is a clear and present danger (feable) attempt to go on the offensive.

Mahony and the USCCB's criminal cover-up, of decades of premediate aid, abetting, enabling, perpetrating and continued endangerment and sexual assault of hundreds of thousands (documented - just in the USA - at www.bishop-accountability.org/abusetracker) of minors, with impunity, and no real correction to this very day, is the equivalent of Al Queda operating within the US Borders with Carte Blanc.

The Roman Catholic Curia are indeed in direct violation of Federal RICO Statutes in the USA, and should be treated and prosecuted as such, because they intentionally, knowingly, and with malice of forethought, gamed the statute of limitations to avoid propsecution, over many decades, and to this day, still lobby in each state legislature, with laity revenues, to prevent the extension of such statutes, from civil or criminal prosecutiuon.

In point of FACT, the USCCB is indeed operating as Former Oklahoma Governor and Roman Catholic Frank Keating, resigned National Abuse Board member, correctly asserted = the USCCB is acting like "La Cosa Nostra"!

To date, the USCCB (Unremoved Sexual Criminal Cabal Bishops) admitt to $2.8 billion (laity) dollars, in diverted offetory plate monies, and squandered or sold laity paid for assets in cost, which does not include legal fees, massively hiked insurance liability premiuns, court costs, hush monies, or well over one billions dollars among the religious orders, thus far paid out either, just in the USA!

To date, no cardinal or bishop has been removed or personally punished (other than Bernard Law promoted to a cushy luxury life style in Rome at laity expense) for their overt obstruction of justice, endangerment, racketeering, perjury, tax evasion, fraud, embezzlement, accessory or perpetration to thousands of felonies, etc, in the USA. However, many miters are "retired" still unpunished, costing laity additional billions of dollars.

The Bernard Law's and Roger Mahony's are essentially the moral equivalent of Bernie Madoff claiming he was framed, and the charges against him, he had the decency, unlike Mahony or Law, to plead guilty to, are: "Anti Semtic".

A CROOK IS A CROOK, no matter what religious back ground.

THE SOLUTION? "STOP DONATING LAITY!" as St. Peter Damien correctly asserted.

Remember, the USCCB and Roman "La Cosa Nostra" Curia are a global pedo cult, whose motto and credo remains = ISAIAH 28:15!

St. Paul to the Ephesians, 5:11, reminds each of us: "Do not deal in fruitless deeds of darkness, but expose them!"

Edmund Burke simlarly reminds each of us: "The only condition for the triumph of evil is for good men (or women) to do nothing!"

No Guilty Curia Removal & Punishment? No Laity Monies! It Is THAT Simple!

Fiat Lux & Veritas!

With a record of success in cases ranging from California and Delaware to Arizona and Alaska, Manly & Stewart has become a sought-after national expert in prosecuting individuals and institutions who abuse children and/or cover up the crimes.

In the past few years alone, Manly & Stewart represented 25 of the 87 plaintiffs who won a $100 million settlement in Orange County, a portion of the victims in the record $660 million settlement against the Los Angeles Archdiocese, many of the victims in the $150 million settlement against the Diocese of San Diego, and more than 150 Alaska Native men and women in the $50 million settlement against the Jesuit order in Alaska - cases that are still pending against the Diocese of Fairbanks. They also represent victims in Delaware, Oregon and South Dakota and have become one of the leading firms representing and understanding the important and unique cultural issues facing Native

My friends who blog here, keep up the good work. You say it all.
Pray that St. Patrick on the 17th will rid the church of the evils behind the alters. I won't call them snakes , as they just bite and they would be insulted to be called Animals, who have and still are, committing Crimes Against Humanity[our precious children] who have been raped by them and spiritually murderded by Roman Catholic Priests.

Part of the resolution of sexual abuse problem demands JUSTICE! Suppose you were permanently disabled by a drunk driver and found that driver had a long history of drunk driving which had been concealed by his employer. I think you would feel that justice entitles you to be compensated for your injuries and the loss of quality of life which you suffered ... the law would agree with you,.

The same logic applies to an individual whose entire life has been diminished by the criminal action of a cleric and the immoral, now criminal, actions of those who concealed the crime and enabled future abuse.

Finally, I find a truthful man in Mr. Joe Saunders!

Diogenes

PS - Roger Mahony is the living embodiment of Lucifer, fallen angel, and both are evil to the core.

Mr. Joe Saunders does not have to say a WORD to explain for his timely, appropriate, absolutely wonderful conduct, because, it is an established, uncontroversial fact, that:

PRIESTS RAPE CHILDREN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

EVERY PERSON SHOULD BE AGAINST THE CATHOLIC PEDOPHILE MACHINE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The very fact that the Catholics walk through the doors of ANY Catholic church building is absolutely astonishing, having so much light on this matter; not to mention that every time they give even a dime to that spiritual (and literal) whorehouse, they are paying the salary of FILTHY, RAPING PRIESTS!!! And as members of the largest false religious system in the world, they love to have it so!! They love those false doctrines that the priests teach them; they love to bow down and kiss the pope's ring. All of the commandments of men are easier to follow than even ONE of Jesus Christ's, and GOD's, Doctrines, Laws, Judgments.

Mark 7:60 He [the LORD Jesus Christ] answered and said unto them [the scribes and Pharisees, self-righteous hypocrites, all], Well hath Esaias prophesied of you hypocrites, as it is written, This people honoureth me with their lips, but their heart is far from me.
7 Howbeit in vain do they worship me, teaching for doctrines the commandments of men.
8 For laying aside the commandment of God, ye hold the tradition of men, as the washing of pots and cups: and many other such like things ye do.
9 And he said unto them, Full well ye reject the commandment of God, that ye may keep your own tradition.
