Vatican Declined to Defrock U.S. Priest Who Abused Boys
The internal correspondence from bishops in Wisconsin directly to Cardinal Joseph Ratzinger, the future pope, shows that while church officials tussled over whether the priest should be dismissed, their highest priority was protecting the church from scandal…

…Cardinal Bertone halted the process (a secret trial) after Father Murphy personally wrote to Cardinal Ratzinger protesting that he should not be put on trial because he had already repented and was in poor health and that the case was beyond the church’s own statute of limitations.
“I simply want to live out the time that I have left in the dignity of my priesthood,” Father Murphy wrote near the end of his life to Cardinal Ratzinger…

Father Murphy not only was never tried or disciplined by the church’s own justice system, but also got a pass from the police and prosecutors who ignored reports from his victims…NYTimes.com

The Predator Priest Who Got Away
The Rev. Lawrence C. Murphy admitted he sexually abused deaf boys at his boarding school for 22 years. Victims tried for more than three decades to bring him to justice, but documents show that the church neither defrocked him nor referred him for prosecution.Interactive Timeline

Dignity of my priesthood – What an arrogant bollock! The dignity of the priesthood was flushed down the toilet the moment the first priest violated a child!

After reading the documents, which the NYTimes has helpfully placed online, I am left with the feeling that Murphy clearly understood that the church was more bothered about its reputation than the children.

I am also left wondering how the Vatican’s representative who interviewed him over the allegations didn’t just give him a good thumping right there and then?

In my opinion, when Pope Bene-dickhead the sick-teenth visits the UK later this year…

….every Catholic who turns out to fawn over this monster is condoning every priestly cock ever rammed into a child.

Every Catholic who turns out to see the Pope idol is as bad as all those f*ck-wit evil priests who thought it was okay to keep the secret.

Every Catholic who turns out to the Papal Pillock, is condoning the Vatican’s centuries old standpoint that the Catholic church’s reputation is more important than the destruction of children.

You know, it’s times like these when us atheists lend a thought to a wish that there was a god, so that Papa Joe’s Paedo Machine would actually get it’s just desserts.
