As stated above, pls watch the video and read through the article. It's so disgusting that these men were preaching to anyone when their hearts were as black and coal. They had no compassion and abused children at will. The only thing I'm happy about is that it's all coming out.
EVERYTHING.

Among the horrific revelations of a 1,356-page Pennsylvania grand jury report that found more than 1,000 identifiable child victims were abused by over 300 Catholic priests, one stands out starkly: Priests allegedly used church property to produce child pornography.
With one priest, George Zirwas, the grand jury says his diocese knew of complaints starting in 1987 that he purportedly sexually abused children. Zirwas was shuffled among positions until he was placed on “personal leave” in 1995, which lasted until he was murdered in Havana, Cuba, in May 2001. The report claims Zirwas and three other priests created child pornography in parishes and rectories using whips, violence, and sadism while raping their victims.

George said he never discussed the nude Polaroids, or the twisted, secret gifts he and the other kids had been given decades ago by the men who preyed on them. These weren’t the kinds of things you could share without feeling humiliated, especially if you grew up tough, like he did on the South Side of Pittsburgh.
But you can’t outrun your nightmares forever. So on Dec. 17 — a week before Roman Catholics around the world celebrated Christmas — George met with a Pennsylvania grand jury and told it about the Rev. George Zirwas, a friendly young priest who once took him to a rectory in Munhall, a borough about 25 minutes from downtown Pittsburgh, and introduced him to some friends: The Revs. Francis Pucci, Richard Zula, and Francis Luddy.
During a conversation about religious statues, the priests told George to get onto a bed and remove his shirt, and strike a pose like Jesus on the cross. Then they instructed him to strip off his pants and underwear, according to a grand jury report released Tuesday by Pennsylvania Attorney General Josh Shapiro.
In the unnerving moments that followed, George claimed that Zula or Pucci began taking photos of him on a Polaroid camera. All of the priests giggled — and then added the photos of George to a collection of photos of other teen boys. According to the grand jury, these men and another priest, the Rev. Robert Wolk, were part of a “ring of predatory priests” who raped children, shared intelligence on potential victims, and manufactured child pornography in parishes and rectories.
“This group of priests used whips, violence, and sadism in raping their victims,” reads one line of the nearly 900-page document, which outlines horrific abuse that occurred in Pittsburgh and five other Catholic dioceses across the state.
The men gave a specific gift to children they favored, something they could wear that would mark them as prime targets for abuse. Zirwas “had told me that they, the priests, would give their boys, their altar boys, or their favorite boys these crosses,” George told the grand jury. “So he gave me a big gold cross to wear.” ,...
According to Tuesday’s report, Zula “engaged in violent sexual activity” with a child at a rectory in the Pittsburgh Diocese. Church records further described parties Zula hosted for children that featured marijuana, alcohol, oral sex, attempted anal sex, and whips. He was sentenced to five years in prison in 1990, and died last year.
UPDATE: Hell just froze over. CNN actually covered this report and very timidly suggested wrongdoing. But it demonstrates that this story is so horrific that they couldn't remain in their usual role of apologists and enablers. No fanciful excuses concocted so here it is. Perhaps the last time you'll see CNN even veering towards the truth.

Wowzers. I don't think anyone is surprised. This is what you get when you Latinize the Catholic Church and turn it over to these cults and weird phallic worshipping of the sentimental that characterizes the Latin mind. It spreads like wildfire into the Catholic Mind.
Catholicism was good once upon a merry time, but the Latinization effect is causing it to become sort of like a phallic version of the Tower of Babel.

I have a feeling it was always easy.
The Romans saw a Trojan horse way to gain control of the growing masses following Christ's teachings. At first they fought it, but why, when they could build a church and claim ownership of the doctrine they mocked and ridiculed It has worked beautifully for them, but we were onto them through the brilliance and truth of John's Revelaton. The False Prophet and Whore of Babylon have been The Pope and The Catholic Church.
It's Babylon we have to worry about ... not Latins. Thanks.
