What the hell is up with these freaking catholics?  These guys have got to rank right at the top of the most evil shit....  I'm wondering, with these stories popping up so routinely year after year for several decades, how in the hell could anyone in good conscience condone this shit by participating in such disgusting scam of a religion?  How the hell could you take your kids into this environment with this ongoing history of pedo priests?  That's taking faith a little to far.  If you're a catholic, get the hell out before your kids become the next victims.



Kansas City, Mo. -- Kansas City's Catholic bishop has become the highest-ranking U.S. Catholic official indicted on a charge of failing to protect children after he and his diocese waited five months to tell police about hundreds of images of child pornography discovered on a priest's computer, officials said Friday.

Bishop Robert Finn, the first U.S. bishop criminally charged with sheltering an abusive clergyman, and the Kansas City-St. Joseph Catholic Diocese pleaded not guilty on one count each of failing to report suspected child abuse.

Jackson County Prosecutor Jean Peters Baker said Finn and the diocese were required under state law to report the discovery to police because the images gave them reason to believe a child had been abused.

The indictment says the bishop failed to report suspicions against the priest from Dec. 16, 2010, when the photos were discovered, to May 11, 2011, when the diocese turned them over to police.

The priest, the Rev. Shawn Ratigan, was charged in May with three state child pornography counts, and in June with 13 federal counts of producing, possessing and attempting to produce child porn. He has pleaded not guilty and remains jailed.

Some people say that they cover the stuff up to keep the $ rolling in. 

I'm not saying all Cath. schools/churches are bad....I do believe some must teach the Gospel and would not cover up crap like this...hopefully.  Some people stay in the church because they are raised that way and believe strongly they are supposed to stay in that church.   

It is not normal for (most) men to be celibate.  I'm not sure why they forbid their Priests to marry....anyone know what scripture or tradition they base this on?
