So this pretty much proves that Papa Razti DID have a direct link with the sex offenders. Absolutely disgusting then, that he was chosen as pope.

In other news, Australia RCC's new exorcist claims that Twilight, Harry Potter, and Yoga are pathways to the Devil:

Bishop Porteous, who is second to Cardinal George Pell in the Australian Catholic hierarchy, told The Sun-Herald the Twilight and Harry Potter books and films ''are attractive to adolescents and can be innocent enough.

''However, they can open up a fascination with this mysterious world and invite exploration of various phenomena through the use of occult practices like seances.''

Australian bishops attack atheism

http://newsinfo.inquirer.net/breakingnew...ck-atheism

SYDNEY – Australian Catholic bishops Friday used the Church's holiest week to attack atheism, as they urged the faithful to remember the good work of the religious despite the global child sex abuse scandal.

In his Good Friday address, Anthony Fisher, the bishop of the New South Wales diocese of Parramatta, said Christianity was hardier than its enemies imagined.

"Last century we tried godlessness on a grand scale and the effects were devastating," he said.

"Nazism, Stalinism, Pol-Pottery, mass murder, abortion and broken relationships: all promoted by state-imposed atheism or culture-insinuated secularism, the illusion that we can build a better life without God."

Vatican confirms report of sexual abuse and rape of nuns by priests in 23 countries

The Catholic Church in Rome made the extraordinary admission yesterday that it is aware priests from at least 23 countries have been sexually abusing nuns.

The Catholic Church in Rome made the extraordinary admission yesterday that it is aware priests from at least 23 countries have been sexually abusing nuns.

Confidential Vatican reports obtained by the National Catholic Reporter, a weekly magazine in the US, have revealed that members of the Catholic clergy have been exploiting their financial and spiritual authority to gain sexual favours from nuns, particularly those from the Third World who are more likely to be culturally conditioned to be subservient to men.

...While most of the abuse happened in African countries, Sister O'Donohue reported incidents in 23 countries including India, Ireland, Italy, the Philippines and the United States.

She heard cases of priests encouraging the nuns to take the pill telling them it would prevent HIV. Others "actually encouraged abortion for the sisters" and Catholic hospitals and medical staff reported pressure from priests to carry out terminations for nuns and other young women.

Just let priests get married. What's the deal? Won't make them any less holy or respectable. -_-
