The Law Royal Commission into Child Abuse

[western royboy]

The c@&t Mulkearns died today. I don't know how to feel. He got away with it - like he was always going to do. Never held accountable for his crimes, never sincere in his attempts at apologies. Georgie Boy and the church would be happy campers tonight - their scapegoat and sacrificial lamb has arrived and they can be now sure that dead men tell no tales.

Thought of you when I heard.
May he rot in hell if it exists!

It could be argued that the mother****er spent his whole life telling preposterous tales. **** the odious priest class. The root of this entire problem. Arseholes, all of them.

Hasty generalization....Buggers more accurate.

I blame Socrates & Plato....You remember....The dude from The Symposium, who praised the 'higher love' between a boy & his master/teacher....The same one charged with corrupting the cities youth?

Did you really think it was just for being a general 'gadfly', as Plato would have us believe?

We need to get all these priests in a hemlock.

According to the unreliable Plato, Socrates allegedly admitted he was justifiably executed for polluting the minds of the youth of Athens, which had nothing to do with rooting them, or vice versa.

I imagine the Tim Minchin song will have been posted in this thread.

He did a another good one a few years ago.

The Royal Commission rolls on yet the discussion in here is still soley focussed on the Catholic Church. Should I have expected more?

Don't know, have you anything to contribute apart from criticising?
What are your thoughts on the RC looking at Religious schools, children's homes, the Entertainment business and now the Sporting Clubs?

Really?....hmmm....and here I was thinking it was just a Greek thing.

Not a master at subtext are you skilts.

Is Mulkearns death not relevant - it is to me - if you can't see its relevance then I suggest you GAGF

If the Catholic Church were any other business/Organisation/Group does anyone seriously believe they wouldn't have been shut down/run out of town years a go? How the hell can a body have an endemic problem of paedophilia and still be standing beggars belief.

 

[Maggie5]

About as much as anybody else in this thread about the Royal Commission - nothing.

Nice
Where did I write it was not relevent? Don't try and put words into my posts that don't exist mate.

So nothing except to come here and bitch. Why am I not surprised?
Your concern is overwhelming.

Compromise of course....Remember, Ratzenberger fell on his sword....The first Pope in history ever to resign.

He was head of the world-wide cover up for over 30 years. And it was his policy of protecting every priest by any means, that held sway within the RCC world-wide.

I'll see myself out - I'm sorry I even starting reading this thread.

Evidence will be before the RC next month. Part two tonight.

"Barry John Greaves and Robert Francis Sharwood were both given recurring roles speaking at the Holy Trinity Church, Fortitude Valley, after serving time for sexually abusing children."

I seriously am not sure what I am angrier about, the perpetrators or those who covered it up. Sickening!

 

[Pie eyed]

Pell is still at large.

 

[Maggie5]

Sadly Pell is not the only 'men of the cloth' that should rot in hell.

Once again, real evidence please!

 

[Maggie5]

Are you really that thick or do you work at it?

 

[little graham]

Think about this for a minute.

What's so special about the word 'this'?

 

[Maggie5]

Have no idea what you are asking.

Sorry, my blue. I was making an idiotic reply to little graham. It's a surprise that I'd post anything idiotic, I know.

 

[coerced]

Finally, something has come out on Pell.

 

[nicky]

Wow, watching 7.30 now. I had no idea that he has been accused of sexual abuse as well.
