The following is a comment on this blog from Patrick O’malley.

It illustrates again that the best part of the Voice from the Desert are comments from readers.

The Catholic church has a world-wide, consistent, organized approach to concealing rampant child sex abuse by Catholic priests. In places where it’s investigated by outsiders – like Philadelphia, Ireland, etc, they’ve found rampant child rape and criminal cover up.

To see how bad it still is in 2011 in the US, Google “Philadelphia district attorney grand jury report” and read just the first 6 pages. The perverted sex with children, and the organized cover up are horrifying.

It’s organized crime, and should be investigated and prosecuted in the US using RICO statutes. Unlike the mafia, it’s not the job of the church to commit these crimes, but there’s no question that they committed thousands of child sex crimes in the United States alone, and covered it up in criminal fashion, although they knew the laws well enough to outlast the statute of limitations.

This makes them an organized crime institution, and they should be investigated like the mafia.

The fact that they continue to ignore or fight the victims, and the fact that they continue to lie and mislead their sheepish congregation makes them a horrible church. God made the laws so simple, yet Catholic priests and bishops don’t follow them, and their congregation can’t figure that out.

Elsewhere in the world, Amnesty International and others should use their power to sue the Vatican.
