As a long time Catholic following the abuse stories since the public outcry, I advise this. The Royal Commission will be dealing with the most underhanded ,pernicious and perverted scum in the world.
I am talking about the Catholic Hierarchy, bishops , monsignors and the perverted Clergy. They have destroyed the lives of thousands of children.
“A man would be better to have a millstone tied around his neck and thrown into the sea, Than to hurt one of the little children”
These are truly EVIL people.
There are plenty of child sex abuse allegations involving all kinds of institutions alongside the churches.
Public schools up to college and univerity level like Penn State (Sandusky) here in the US have come under investigation.
In the UK its the BBC and the Jimmy Saville scandal.
Churches, education and the media are all suspects deserving investigation for abusing children from where I sit.
And of those thousands, the ones for whom the name of Jesus has now been so blasphemed by these “priests”, they never turn back and doom themselves to an eternity in Hell.
They have provided ammunition for the mockers to condemn the very One the priests were supposed to glorify.
