Subject: RE: BS: Clerical child abuse Part 94....
Joe, please stop assuming that none of us believe that there are "good people" in the church. When my grandmother was in a coma, her Catholic prayer group prayed for her around the clock until she came out of it. Her own Priest was with her through thick and thin during her illness and it was her Christian faith that kept her together during months of sickness and pain (with no painkillers) prior to her death. She chose to become a Catholic, against her parents wishes, at sixteen because she was called to. The ordinary and good people, are victims of this self-serving and deeply morally corrupt cover-up organised by the church's hierachy. I feel very sorry for these people. And as I say, I'm glad it's not me having my faith rocked right now. But I have nothing but contempt for a supposedly spiritual *organisation* which secretly colludes in the activities of paedophile members.
