	One Last Slap in the Face by Church As Holidays Begin. Online Action Group Forms. City of Angels on Hiatus until Jan 15, 2010 By Kay Ebeling City of Angels December 15, 2009 http://cityofangels5.blogspot.com/2009/12/one-last-slap-in-face-by-church-before.html Once more the Catholic Church talks out of one side of its mouth to look good in the news on the other side of its face. In a December 8th story about its treatment of African American plaintiffs, the Chicago Archdiocese says it is "righting the wrongs" of its pedophile priests "no matter how long ago the abuse occurred." Well, my claim goes back to 1953, and I contacted the Chicago archdiocese for help in 2005. I'm still here, unsettled, at the end of 2009. So while trying to please the black Catholics, the bishops are lying about how they treat older claimants. Plus, City of Angels has reported how hard the Church works to influence high courts in California. I doubt the bishops' lawyers were lobbying and filing briefs in favor of their crime victims last October when the Supreme Court for the state of Illinois ruled against child sex abuse claims for plaintiffs over age forty. So we get one last slap in the face by the Church for the holidays. Meanwhile, there's a new Online Message Group forming now. Since the pedophile epidemic in the Church is proven to be a global problem, with Ireland and Australia exploding in 2009 and the Pope "dismayed," activists need to interact more globally, instantaneously, and seamlessly to find a solution. If anyone wants to connect up, talk, and start projects, City of Angels started a Yahoo group where we can hold online, but private, conversations. New Yahoo Group for online messaging and taking action: Click here to join: Molested by Priests Online Group at Yahoo This new group could break barriers like its working title name: City of Angels SONAR: (Support Online for Networking and Resources). (Gotta work on that name.) SONAR is a place to share survival techniques, make friends, compare notes, and find ways to take effective action in the near future. Lots of action. 2010 will be the year of PROJECTS here at City of Angels. But when the indoor trees and lights go up and that music starts to play, my head just won't go to the topic of pedophile priests,* a subject matter that begs for breaks, respite, even reprieve. There is a lot to be said for rest and recuperation. I love how December has become an entire Sabbath month so to speak, here in caffeinated America. City of Angels has big plans, projects for the future. We will be back January 15, 2010, ready to take things to a higher level. ****************** The Chicago Archdiocese Slaps Victims One Last Time before the holidays The Chicago Archdiocese and Cardinal George sent out the year 2009 talking out of both sides of their heads again. As usual the Church thinks it can tell one group of people one thing and another group another thing and get away with it. Here is what the Final Call reported: According to officials from the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Chicago, every effort is being made to resolve cases of sexual abuse involving priests in order to right the wrongs of the past, no matter how long ago the abuse occurred. Well Kay Ebeling is living proof that that's not true, as my case dates back to 1953-55 and as far as I know, Illinois lawyers for the Catholic Church petitioned long and hard to get that state high Court to rule in its favor. The Supreme Court of the State of Illiois passed a ruling last October that pretty much cut off anyone older than age 40 from filing a claim against the Church. We've seen how many law firms file briefs in the California state high court to influence decisions in favor of the Church in this state. That’s why I read that quote in The Final Cut and went, what the -- because as my long time readers know, my case would have been settled in Illinois, if they hadn't gone to great lengths to beef up their laws against adult victims of child sex abuse by corporate entities, i.e., the Catholic Church. So I'm living proof that the Chicago Archdiocese is not righting the wrongs “no matter how long ago the abuse occurred.” You know what, before the Internet that kind of fraud was a lot easier to pull off. ************ 2010 at City of Angels will be the year of Crimen Solicitationes We should take out billboards, we should send it to newspaper editors. The Public does not yet realize that sex crimes were aided and abetted from the Pope down and THIS POPE BENEDICT ARNOLD RATZINGER helped write the policy. Crimen Crimen Crimen Crimen Crimen! **********2010 will be the year of PROJECTS (I think that Projects will be the word at the top of the blog, for the year 2010, like Epimeno in 2008, but haven't decided yet.) See you in mid-January. We will start the year with the Santa Barbara Story parts 6 and 7 AND a special feature about Arthur Baselice and his plans for justice for adult victims of pedophile priests in Pennsylvania in 2010. ********* Any Victims from Boys Town, Nebraska? One Midwestern survivor asked City of Angels, "If you could, ask if there are any survivors from Boys Town of Father Peter Dunne or Dr. Ott Thank you for your time." If there are any other victims from Boys Town in Nebraska of those two perps or any others, contact Kay Ebeling at cityofangelslady@yahoo.com and I'll put you in touch with the victim in the Midwest who is searching. We will write more about Boys Town in Nebraska next year. From Wikipedia: Boys Town is a village in Douglas County, Nebraska, United States. The village of Boys Town is headquarters of the Boys Town organization, also known as "Father Flanagan's Boys' Home" founded by Father Edward J. Flanagan. Boys Town Nebraska was dedicated to the care, treatment, and education of at-risk children See ya next year. (Hopefully with funding, so we don't have to keep saying:) We now pass the PayPal cosmic hat. Click one of the Donate Donuts on the left and send me all your money. Stick 'em up. Merry Christmas Remember, Pagans started the tradition of bringing a tree in the house to put lights on it. It counters the SAD syndrome from winter darkness. As do Jingle Bells. Enjoy
