Child Molestation Allowed by the Vatican


"But whoso shall offend one of these little ones which believe in me, it were better for him that a millstone were hanged about his neck, and that he were drowned in the depth of the sea." -Matthew 18:6

Greetings everyone in these last hours of Earths history. This ministry has been sharing a full gambit of facts exposing the Roman Catholic church as the home of Antichrist for a little over 16 years now. However, there is no other subject that tears at my heart and the hearts of all true Christians the world over than this one. In this Newsletter I would like to share with you a few key articles from my "RCC&SEX" page that graphically expose the sexual degradation behind stained glass.

This is indeed a difficult topic to cover. So difficult in fact that this is the first time I have ever dedicated an entire Newsletter to it. It's a sad state of affairs when Christians need to report on such disgusting activity as this. One would hope that preaching the Gospel and prophetic facts would suffice in the ministerial duties of those called to expose Antichrist. However, as reality has made us painfully aware, the Vat-of-sin in Rome grants all of us a panoramic view of all that Satan has to offer, regardless of how vile and disgusting that may be.

The main reason I am choosing to share this now is because of an article I received a few weeks back. I guess you can say it's my "straw that broke the camels back" in this situation. This particular article was picked up by most of the evil driven media source on Earth mainly because they know "dirty laundry" is good for ratings. Realizing that, we see that it's very possible now, that every person on Earth has had an opportunity to learn about this perverse sexual problem of the Roman Catholic church. What really amazes me however, are the many Catholics that are still blinded by their priests ability to tickle ears. They defend this church, and its brood of child molesters, with such loyalty that it makes me wonder if anyone in this church reads newspapers, or watches the TV news. We have all heard many within this church declare that homosexuality is not unique to the Vatican. And in all honesty, I tend to agree. All denominations do in fact have a problem in this area. However, none of them have been sued by scores of parents for molesting their children as the Vatican has. None of them have gone after the young boys in their care like the Roman Catholic priests. And none of them have been caught protecting these child molesters like the Pope, the Cardinals, Bishops, Priests and yes, even lay people of the Roman Catholic church has. As far as I know, NOT ONE priest has ever been excommunicated for these criminal acts! Not even after they have been convicted and sentenced to prison. As far as this ministry can tell, all of them that are in prison are STILL considered to be ordained Roman Catholic priests worthy of the title "ambassador of Christ." However, if you do the Biblical thing and get married as did Archbishop Emmanuel Milingo back in May of 2001, then you will find yourself excommunicated. (By the way... the Vatican later FORCED this man to divorce his wife! Totally ignoring what Mark 10:9 says about this.) Sure, there may be one or two protestant ministers out there that have sunk into child molestation. However, I haven't seen a single news article concerning it thus far. Nevertheless, I have seen countless articles, TV newscasts, Radio reports, Internet news services, mainstream on, and offline magazines, religious as well as secular newsgroup postings, chat room discussions, videos, and even tracts, as well as every day run of the mill water cooler conversations discussing the fact that the Roman Catholic church is not only run by homosexual cardinals, bishops, and priests. It also appears to have a craving for the flesh of innocent young boys placed in its care. And to make matters worse, the hierarchy of this church allows the molestations to flourish by protecting their friends in the clergy. They also choose to keep the truth hidden from the parents and authorities that they know their fellow clergymen are molesting these children. And in so doing they allow this nightmare in reality to continue for these young boys day after day. In essence, they "offend these little ones" to such an extent that they grow up hating the Lord Jesus Christ simple because they now believe Christianity is a farce because of the actions of these wolves in sheep's clothing. And all of this is done under the nose of the Vatican.

Now for some extremely blunt and obvious truth about this... The Vatican IS aware of the child molesters. The Vatican is also aware that many of the clergy are either ending up in jail for child molestation, or they are ending up in the grave due to AIDS related illness. Even when the clergy is convicted and sentenced to jail, the Vatican does NOT excommunicate these men that are caught molesting these children. And ALL of them molested more than one child in their care. Some have even been found to have molested dozens of young boys over the years. And as you will soon find out, the Vatican was totally aware of the acts of their priests, Cardinals, and Bishops.

Final analysis:  CHILD MOLESTATION IS ALLOWED BY THE VATICAN


Bishop guilty of concealing pedophile priest

September 04 2001 at 03:13PM
Quickwire

Caen, France - A French bishop was found guilty of failing to denounce a paedophile priest from his parish and was given a three-month suspended prison term on Tuesday.  The verdict against Pierre Pican, bishop of the western town of Bayeux, marked the first time a Roman Catholic priest in France has been convicted for failing to disclose the sexual abuse and mistreatment of minors.  The court also ordered Pican, 66, to pay a symbolic one-franc fine to each of the four civil parties in the case.

Prosecutors had asked that Pican be sentenced to a suspended prison term of between four and six months.  Pican had admitted during his two-day trial in June to concealing the paedophile activities of Father Rene Bissey for two years before the priest was arrested in 1998, but said he would do the same again rather than break the sanctity of the confessional.  Bissey was sentenced to 18 years in prison in October last year on 11 counts of sexual abuse of children in his care. According to the charge sheet, Pican sent Bissey to a clinic for psychiatric treatment after learning of his offences and then allowed him to resume parish work.

Pican's trial took place amid mounting criticism of the French Roman Catholic Church which has been accused of not taking charges of paedophilia seriously. According to Church officials in France, of 25 000 priests nationwide, there are 19 under investigation for rape or sexual assault on minors. In addition, 30 priests have been convicted in recent years on the same charges and 11 of them are serving prison sentences.


A Roman Catholic Bishop is found guilty of concealing the criminal act of child molestation, and he has the blind unChristlike audacity to declare he would do it again? Using the easily proven unBiblical Roman Catholic confessional as a crutch, this bishop actually tells the authorities, and the media, that he has every intention of doing the exact same crime again if the opportunity presents itself. And no one appears surprised by this. The governments of this world have just openly declared themselves believers in Roman Catholic dogma in one fell swoop when they choose not to lock this man up for life after making such a statement as this. They all believe it's "biblical fact" that the sanctity of the confessional is unbreakable. Clever little invention of Hell isn't it? (See the Truth about the "Confessional" here) The least they could do is remove this bishop from the church so that other little boys won't have to suffer this hell on earth. However, don't count on it. I have yet to see the Vatican reprimand this bishop. I have yet to see the Vatican denounce this bishop, let alone the priest that actually did the abuse. And I have yet to see the Vatican excommunicate either of these men, nor do I expect they will.

By the way, did you notice the courts ordered the bishop to pay a ONE FRANC fine to each of the families that had their children MOLESTED. And it also sentenced the condoning bishop to a mere 3 months in jail, and then SUSPENDED the sentence! No wonder these protectors of child molesters do what they do. No wonder they have no fear of the authorities. No wonder they can boldly proclaim that they would repeat their crimes if the opportunity presented itself again. The authorities are helping them! This bishop allows a priest to molest some young boys for years, and all the court does is slap his wrist, give him a fine that most homeless people could afford to pay, and then a get out of jail free card? Fact is folks, I'm not surprised at all. I praise the Lord for such graphic proof that YES, we are living in the last days! Absolute hellish acts like this make it oh so obvious! Had this happened just a few short decades earlier, these child molesting vultures would have been sentenced to life!

Can it get worse? Notice this next article...


Priest says paedophilia was good for children

September 04 2001 at 05:40PM

Aix-en-Provence, France - A Roman Catholic priest on trial in this southern French town for failing to disclose the sexual abuse of minors has argued that the paedophilic acts that took place in his parish were actually good for the children.  Father Hubert Barral, 67, who heads the parish in the village of Vernegues, faces up to five years in prison if convicted on a charge of failing to assist a person in danger and failing to report a crime.  The trial is taking place amid mounting criticism of the French Roman Catholic Church, which has been accused of not taking charges of paedophilia seriously.  In his testimony, Barral defended the man accused of having sexually abused or raped two minor children, as well as a boy over the age of 18 who had psychological problems, describing the rapes as "moments when the children flowered". The alleged crimes took place between 1986 and 1998. The victims included a British boy who was aged six when his mother abandoned him at the church in 1986 and a 12-year-old runaway. Arrested and charged for the rapes was Marc Ruther, a 49-year-old drifter. Ruther admitted to the charges against him and said he often gave his victims dagga before raping them. Investigators said Barral had also told one of the children that making love was a way of being in touch with God. - Sapa-AFP http://www.iol.co.za/html/frame_news.php?art_id=ct2001090417400733_1623670&set_id=1&click_id=79


First a bishop decides NOT to report a Roman Catholic priest who has confessed to him that he is molesting little boys. Now we see another priest is declaring the acts of rape he committed upon young boys WERE GOOD FOR THE CHILDREN? This priest not only believes it's good to rape children at the "moment they flowered." He actually believes it's a way to be closer to God. So much so, that he preaches this ridiculous lie to at least one of the children that we know of. And again... no comment from the Vatican. Nor is he excommunicated.

Now for a real shock! Most of you getting this Newsletter recall how I reported on the fact that Roman Catholic priests are dying of A.I.D.S. ELEVEN TIME GREATER than anyone else in the United States of America. You can view the articles and facts in my February 2, 2000 Truth Provided Newsletter. This is indeed a shock in itself. But that's not as shocking as this next article...


Abuse inquiry at top Catholic school

An investigation has been launched into allegations of child abuse at the London Catholic school attended by Prime Minister Tony Blair's two teenage sons.  The inquiry focuses on a former chaplain and governor at the London Oratory School in Fulham, south-west London, who died of a suspected Aids-related illness, several newspapers have reported.  Police and social services were alerted after pupils wrote letters about Scots-born Father David Martin to Childline.  While Mr Blair sends his sons, Euan, 16, and Nicholas, 14, to the school, there has been no suggestion that they are involved in the investigations.  

The former chaplain is alleged to have met at least six pupils in his rooms at the London Oratory Church, to which the school is affiliated.  Two boys were said to have expressed fears that they may have contracted the HIV virus from the priest, who died two years ago, aged 44.  A Scotland Yard spokeswoman said: "Allegations of abuse at a London school have been received by Hammersmith and Fulham child protection team.  "The allegations are being investigated." -BBC News Tuseday Dec, 5, 2000 13:56.

How do you defend yourself on such a front as this? These little boys might have AIDS! They may DIE because their priest has given them a deadly disease! And think about this as well. Not only was this priest actively molesting little boys. He was also having homosexual sex with adults so as to contract the virus that killed him. These parents TRUSTED their church leaders to care for their children. They dropped them off at school having full assurance in their hearts that there is no place as safe for their little boys as their Roman Catholic school. Yet they are taken advantage of. Not only does this church abuse their children in the most decadent ways known to man. They preach to them this is a godly act! And when confronted, they hold to this reprobate theology in the hopes of using it as some strange line of defense. How can parents ever feel safe again when leaving their children with their priests when they see this activity being allowed?

I would like to ask all Catholic parents reading this newsletter to be totally 100% honest with yourselves right now. Do you have 100% rock hard assurance that the priest at your local parish isn't molesting your children, right now? Think about this. Even if you had your suspicions, approaching your priest's supervising pastor or bishop would be an absolute waste of your time. Even if he knows what your priest is doing to your child, he won't tell you. And even if he is found out, and convicted for not telling you or the authorities, thereby allowing your child to be sexually molested and raped for years by one of the priests, he has complete confidence that if he has the chance to do it again, he will. Because he now knows that the authorities are on his side!

This reminds me of a priest named Norman Mayday of the Saint Louis De-Montforte church of Oak Lawn Illinois. This was a church that I went to with my family as a young child. There was a very friendly priest that served at this parish. His name was Norman Mayday. He would take us boys to baseball games, and football games at least once a month that I knew of. I recall many times going into the basement of that church to play hockey with the other boys and the priest Norman Mayday on weekends. Never once did I suspect he was molesting some of the boys. Not once did any of those boys let on that they were being molested either! Then suddenly without warning, the priest Norman Mayday was gone. The pastor of the church just announced one Sunday that he was transferred to another parish. None of us knew why either. The pastor of the church simply lied to his congregation as to why that priest was transferred and we all believed him. We all just figured it was part of the job description to go from church to church without warning. It wasn't until about 10 years later did we find out why he was transferred. The Roman Catholic priest, Norman Mayday, was caught molesting some little boys in our church. The church did NOT excommunicate him, nor did it send him off to a monastery to contemplate repentance, and they certainly did not alert the authorities. The Roman Catholic church simply transferred the priest Norman Mayday just a few short miles down the exact same road to another parish in a neighboring town. The church was "Our Lady of the Ridge Catholic church" in Chicago Ridge Illinois. As it turns out, almost immediately, the priest Norman Mayday re-activated his molestation techniques, and was able to get more victims. And not long after that he was caught once again. However, this time, the parents of the children molested were not so willing to do a hush hush on his activities. He was arrested, convicted, and sentenced to over 40 years in jail. Yet still, he is considered a Roman Catholic priest in prison.

When I think back on those days, I am truly amazed how it was so impossible to tell if anyone was being molested by their priests. I knew some of these boys personally! Some were my friends! Yet I truly never even suspected anything was wrong. Nor did my parents, who also knew the children, their parents, as well as this priest. He had many dinners in our home along with many other priests. Still... no one knew a thing!

How can Catholic parents truly have 100%, 80%, or even 50% assurance that their local priest isn't lying to them? For years the bishop knew of the priest doing what he was doing. Yet he refused to stop him or even report him. That bishop even refused to protect the little boys! He could have at least done that. He could have at least done something to help those children. However, he didn't. He just ignored it, and lied to everyone concerned. And as is always the case, no one was the wiser. Think about that. This bishop, and this priest BOTH KNEW what was going on, yet every Sunday they would either attend or 'perform' the Catholic mass for their trusting parishioners. Not one person in the church is even the slightest bit aware "outside the clergy" as to what is happening to these little boys. EXCEPT...

Those  young  boys!

Think of their lives. Think of how they hear mommy and daddy praising the very priest that's molesting them without knowing what they know. Think about the nightmares these young boys had for years, and probably still have to this day! Think about how they fear these priests that are molesting them, and then think about how their very own parents are bringing them to the priest. Think about how they truly don't know what to do or how to stop this. Plus, we must also think of the guilt running rampant in the hearts of the parents once they realize what's up. They now know that they brought their children to these priests so they can be molested! They recall their children warning them in the only way they knew how, and they ignored them because they trusted their priests over their own children. Guilt starts to tear at them for what they feel they did to their very own children. They naturally begin to blame themselves for allowing this to continue. I wonder how many loyal Catholics have decided to totally give up on the Lord Jesus Christ because of the actions of these priests. Guilt, even misplaced guilt, can do horrendous things! Think about the MILLIONS the world over that have been totally destroyed spiritually because of what some priest did to them, or a close loved one. It's no wonder organizations like, 'SNAP' Survivors Network of those Abused by Priests have been formed all over the country. It's no wonder countless Newsgroups have been started that are solely dedicated to those that have come out of the molestations simply because they "grew up." It's no wonder millions of websites are popping up all over the internet on this topic. It's no wonder so many people are writing books, news articles, tracts, and anonymous letters about Roman Catholic priests molesting them or those close to them. People ARE becoming more and more aware of the evils of this church. So much so that, to date, one government has been toppled merely because of the mishandling of a case regarding a child molesting Catholic priest.


PEDOPHILE IRISH PRIEST DIES IN JAIL SHOCKING CASE HELPED TOPPLE A GOVERNMENT

A Roman Catholic priest whose child-molesting crimes helped topple an Irish government died in jail Friday, Irish media reported. Brendan Smyth, 71, was serving a 12-year sentence after pleading guilty to 74 charges of indecent and sexual abuse on boys and girls over a period of 36 years. He was pronounced dead in a hospital in Naas, 20 miles west of Dublin, after suffering a heart attack in prison, the reports said.

Smyth apologized to his victims before he was sentenced last month, saying he had committed sins against God as well as offenses against individuals. The case shook Ireland's Catholic Church, the leadership of which pledged there would be no hiding place for priests who abused their roles. The church also set up a special telephone ``help line'' on the day Smyth was jailed last month for victims of child abuse by the clergy. His victims are in line for compensation of up to $145,000. Smyth, a former member of the Norbertine Order, was extradited from British-ruled Northern Ireland in March after serving four years for abusing children there. A 1994 furor about a seven-month Irish delay in processing his extradition from Northern Ireland damaged the then-government of Prime Minister Albert Reynolds. His administration later collapsed in a dispute over high-level legal appointments when its junior coalition ally, the Labor Party, pulled out of the government.  Copyright © 1997, Denver Publishing Co.

Families destroyed, children's spiritual lives destroyed, some children may have contracted AIDS, governments toppled and all thanks to the perverted sexual desires of Roman Catholic priests. Fact is, in the case of the Roman Catholic priest "Rudy Koss" back in May of 1997, one suicide has been attributed to Roman Catholic child molestation. It appears Jay Lemberger, who committed suicide at the age of 20 was one of Rudy Koss's victims.. Was this prophecied? Was there to be a church such as this that would burn in it's flesh for the homosexual decadence? Indeed it was prophecied! See Romans 1:22-32 for a "nutshell" description of the "Holy Roman Catholic Church."

Romans 1:22-32, "Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools,  And changed the glory of the uncorruptible God into an image made like to corruptible man, and to birds, and fourfooted beasts, and creeping things.  Wherefore God also gave them up to uncleanness through the lusts of their own hearts, to dishonour their own bodies between themselves:  Who changed the truth of God into a lie, and worshipped and served the creature more than the Creator, who is blessed for ever. Amen.  For this cause God gave them up unto vile affections: for even their women did change the natural use into that which is against nature:  And likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust one toward another; men with men working that which is unseemly, and receiving in themselves that recompence of their error which was meet.  And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not convenient;  Being filled with all unrighteousness, fornication, wickedness, covetousness, maliciousness; full of envy, murder, debate, deceit, malignity; whisperers,  Backbiters, haters of God, despiteful, proud, boasters, inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents,  Without understanding, covenantbreakers, without natural affection, implacable, unmerciful:  Who knowing the judgment of God, that they which commit such things are worthy of death, not only do the same, but have pleasure in them that do them."

To get an idea of just how bad it's getting with these child molesters in the Roman Catholic clergy. Take a look at this quick article..


U.K. church report urges police checks of clergy

April 18, 2001

 LONDON -- All clergy, staff and volunteers in the Roman Catholic Church in Britain should be subject to police checks to stamp out sexual abuse of children, a report commissioned by the church said Tuesday.  Also, the church must not hush up allegations of abuse, added the report of a commission headed by Lord Nolan, a former appeals judge.  "We believe that the Catholic Church in England and Wales should become an example of best practice in the prevention of child abuse and in responding to it," Nolan said.  Between 1995 and 1999, 21 of the 5,600 Catholic priests in England and Wales were convicted of offenses against children, and two archbishops have been embroiled in controversies about their handing of pedophiliac priests.

 The report said that the church should set up a national child protection unit and that every parish should have a designated child protection representative.  Anyone who refuses to consent to a records check should not be appointed, the report said.


The United Kingdom's Roman Catholic church is going so far as to do background checks on all clergy, as well as staff and volunteers! Is this a church or a day care center? Is this not strange? The Roman Catholic church is so evil and so unChristlike that it is now considering background checks on anyone associated with it, and all the clergy within its walls, because of their rampant desire to molest children! In the USA this is normal procedure when applying for certain government or corporate positions in employment that has to deal with children. However, in the United States, the Roman Catholic church does not do background checks regardless of the fact that the USA sports the highest number of Roman Catholic priests infected with HIV in the world. Eleven tiumes greater than anyone else in the nation we see Roman Catholic priests with AIDS, yet... no background checks??

Nothing less than a reprobate mind can believe that raping a young boy is a way to be closer to God. Only those that have been given up completely to their flesh, can wholeheartedly declare such evils as godly acts. The catholic church has done ALL that Romans chapter one describes and more. History records the murders, tortures, fornications, Bible burnings, covetousness, maliciousness, inquisitions, envy, deceitfulness, malignity; whisperers,  backbiters, haters of God, despiteful, proud, boasters, inventors of evil things, and homosexuality of this church of Satan in overwhelming graphic detail. Yet, there are still over 1 BILLION Catholics in this church. Why?

Because some of the children of God are not doing ALL that they were called to do!

The main reason I wrote this Newsletter was to share with many "luke warm" Christians out there that need a "kick in the pants." Pray for them, share this Newsletter with them. Tell them they too have to tell as many as possible about the evils of this Church. Fact is, WE KNOW THIS IS THE CHURCH OF ANTICHRIST! So, why are we just sitting idle? If the Lord has convinced you of this, He has done so for a reason. TELL THEM! There is no other reason for this knowledge but to share it.

We need to tell as many as possible. The Lord has told us this Truth. The prophecy confirms it is authentic with uncanny 100% accuracy! Tell them. This has to stop! And as prophecy declared so long ago. IT WILL STOP soon.

For those that are reading this and feel you have not the means by which to preach this message. Don't worry... the Lord has given you the tools by which to spread this truth. You don't have to be a preacher, or a teacher. You can pass out printouts of this newsletter, or other newsletters like it. You can send it to people on your email list. You can even do it anonymously by setting up a free hotmail account and email from there. You can send out URL's to my website or others like mine to friends, family, co-workers, or complete strangers. You can post to newsgroups. You can mail letters to people in snail mail. Postcards with only a URL address on them. You can email MP3's off my website or other websites that preach this truth. You can slip small pieces of paper with the URL written on it in pockets of new clothing in stores. Or inside books in bookstores. Or in Bibles in Christian gift shops. You can make sticky labels and place them on the backs of all your snail mail when you pay bills. Place tracts or small URL cards in pews at Catholic churches. Put them in the confessionals, or on kneelers, or in offering boxes. We have to tell them, or the child molestation will become more frequent. Let them know of the decadent behavior of this church. Let them see for themselves what Rome has to offer...

Gifts of Roman Catholicism:

In other words. The Roman Catholic church offers, all the gifts of hell. And this is just on the single topic regarding child molestation.

Priest told to step down after sex-abuse accusations

By MARTHA BELLISLE Associated Press Writer

DENVER (AP) - Amid hugs and tears, a popular Denver priest told his parishioners Sunday the archbishop has relieved him of his duties so he can concentrate on defending himself against sex-abuse accusations. In an emotional statement at the end of Mass, Rev. Marshall Gourley spoke in Spanish and English as he told members of Our Lady of Guadalupe church his departure is necessary in the face of a $20 million lawsuit. "Please, please don't be upset with the archbishop," Gourley, 48, said. "The process that the archbishop has undertaken is in accord with the norms established in this archdiocese and throughout the United States. The process is correct. And the process is necessary." Gourley has said the molestation accusations are "distressing and not truthful" and he will vigorously defend himself against them. Some church members said they disagreed with the decision by Archbishop Charles Chaput of the Catholic Archdiocese of Denver. "It's not a good decision," said Lena Martinez, a 35-year church member. "We need Father Marshall. We need him as much as he needs us. . . . But we'll continue to support him, you bet your life we are."

In a letter to parishioners, Chaput said, "The legal work ahead, no matter what the outcome, will be a demanding and time-consuming effort. It will heavily impact Father Gourley's ability to pastor this parish. "In that light, both to ensure the effective pastoral care of the parish and to enable Father Gourley to concentrate on his defense, I have relieved him of his duties . . . ." Chaput also said Deacon Alfonso Sandoval will serve as pastoral administrator until a new pastor is appointed.

Last month, both Gourley and the archdiocese were named in a lawsuit filed by former parishioner John Ayon of San Diego, who alleges the priest sexually molested him when he was a teen-ager in Denver in the early 1980s. The lawsuit also alleges the archdiocese failed to supervise Gourley and concealed his pattern of sexual abuse of minors. Ayon's Dallas attorney Windle Turley, who recently won a $119 million verdict against the Catholic Diocese of Dallas, said other alleged victims of sexual abuse by Gourley have come forward and their charges will be rolled into Ayon's lawsuit. Turley said he also has heard from victims in the Denver archdiocese abused by priests other than Gourley. But tearful church member Maria Argomaniz said she has known Gourley since he took over at Guadalupe and believes the allegations are false.

"The lawyer is just going after the money," Argomaniz said, visibly upset at the news of Gourley's forced departure. "It's a lie. Father Marshall's so friendly, they want to destroy him."  Argomaniz said the church is suffering without Gourley's sermons. Other priests have stood in for Gourley since the lawsuit was filed. Between standing ovations, Gourley told the packed church that the most difficult thing for him is to be quiet. "All of you who have heard my sermons know how difficult it is for me to be quiet," the priest said. "But when the lawyer tells me I can talk, you better bring a pillow - especially those who sit here on the hard benches - because it's going to be a long sermon."


Former altar boys get $119 million in sex-abuse case

Jury says Dallas diocese covered up priest's actions July 24, 1997 Web posted at: 10:25 p.m. EDT (0225 GMT)

DALLAS (CNN) -- The Roman Catholic Diocese of Dallas has been ordered to pay $119 million in damages to a group of former altar boys who say they were sexually abused over a 15-year period by a priest.  It is believed to be the largest penalty ever imposed on the Catholic church in a sex abuse case.

"It dwarfs anything else we've every heard of," said Bill Ryan, spokesman for the U.S. Catholic Conference.  Lawyers for the altar boys contended diocesan officials ignored reports that the Rev. Rudolph Kos was molesting them, and conspired to cover up the incidents.  "I hope they wake up the pope tonight with this," plaintiffs' attorney Sylvia Demarest said.  The diocese did not dispute the molestation claims but denied it was negligent or engaged in a cover-up. After the verdict, Bishop Charles Grahmann said the diocese likely would appeal.  The state District Court jury awarded about $101 million in compensatory damages and $18 million in punitive damages to 10 men who say Kos molested them, as well as to the family of another alleged victim who committed suicide in 1992.

The victims, who range in age from 18 to their early 30s, hugged each other after the verdicts were read.  Church officials had declined an out-of-court settlement. After the verdict -- in which jurors determined that the church inflicted emotional distress on the plaintiffs and committed fraud -- one church official, Monsignor John Bell, said, "This whole process has been significantly humbling."  Kos, 52, was suspended from the priesthood in 1992. He now lives in San Diego and is awaiting trial on charges of sexual contact with one child and indecency with another. He did not attend the trial.  In an interview with The Dallas Morning News, Kos denied some of the charges against him and refused to discuss others. He said he couldn't answer the question of "which ones I had sex with" and denied even knowing two of the plaintiffs.  The former altar boys alleged that the abuse occurred between 1977 and 1992, first while Kos was a seminarian at Holy Trinity Seminary in Dallas and later while he served at three Dallas area churches.  The abuse, which included masturbation and oral sex, was allegedly inflicted on boys as young as 9. Kos' accusers say he plied them with sedatives, alcohol and marijuana.

Among the alleged victims was Jay Lemberger, who committed suicide at the age of 20.  "My son was murdered by the Dallas diocese, because they let Rudy Kos into their regime, and they let him get away with this abuse," said Pat Lemberger, Jay Lemberger's father.  Tom Economus, head of a Chicago-based support group for survivors of clergy sexual abuse, said the previous largest penalty assessed against the Catholic church in a sexual abuse case was $13 million levied last year in Florida.

Child Abuse and the Priesthood


  The Catholic Archdiocese of Portland, Oregon, decided to settle a sex-abuse case against one of its former priests without going to court.
  The Archdiocese feared that lawyers would have presented evidence that the church was aware of Reverend Melvin Bucher’s failure to pass a lie detector test about sex with minors.  Also, evidence of other sex-abuse cases involving priests in Portland would have surfaced at a trial.  The Archdiocese settled 23 cases of sex-abuse that occurred over a 30-year period in October.  The Catholic church settled the cases after the Oregon Supreme Court ruled that the church, a corporate entity, could be sued for employing abusive priests.

Russian Expert Who 'Predicted' Attacks Warns of New Ones

The same Russian government expert who predicted last July that America was about to suffer a "financial attack" -- and encouraged Russian citizens to cash out dollars and buy rubles and gold -- has again surfaced to make more stunning forecasts.
Dr. Tatyana Koryagina gained some credibility in the Russian media because of ..

A friend of this ministry shared this neat email trick with me. I would like to pass it on...
(By the way.. I have never received a "worm virus" so don't worry)

To protect your E-address

I  learned a computer trick today that's really ingenious in its simplicity.

As you may know, when/if a worm virus gets into your computer it heads  straight for your email address book and sends itself to everyone in there, thus infecting all your friends and associates.  This trick won't keep the  virus from getting into your computer, but it will stop it from using your  address book to spread further, and it will alert you to the fact that the worm has gotten into your system.

Here's what you do: first, open your address book and click on "new contact"  just as you would do if you were adding a new friend to your list of email  addresses.  In the window where you would type your friend's first name,  type in 000_ (that's 3 zeroes followed by an underline).  In the  window below where it prompts you to enter the new email address, type in
WormAlert@alert.com

(If it tells you this is not a valid address just say yes to add it, or OK.) Then complete everything by clicking add, enter, OK, etc.

Now, here's what you've done and why it works: the "name" 000_ will be  placed at the top of your address book as entry #1.  This will be where the  worm will start in an effort to send itself to all your friends.  But when  it  tries to send itself to 000_, it will be undeliverable because of the  phony  email address you entered (WormAlert).  If the first attempt fails (which it will because of the phony address), the worm goes no further and  your friends will not be infected.

Here's the second great advantage of this method: if an email cannot be  delivered, you will be notified of this in your In-Box almost immediately.  Hence, if you ever get an email telling you that an email addressed to  WormAlert could not be delivered, you know right away that you have the worm  virus in your system.  You can then take steps to get rid of it!

Pass it on....

LETTERS I HAVE RECIEVED REGARDING THE TRUTH PROVIDED NEWSLETTER

Dear Brother Nic,
This is very powerful stuff!  I had no idea  what the big picture was!  I just get these little isolated articles to you and you connect the dots!

 Thanks brother!

Lots of Love and Prayers,

 God bless you Nicholas, You speak the truth, without condemning those who might be part of this, without realizing what they do. I wrote to you over a year ago, I don't know if you remember, but I do. :) I still have found no home church, but I keep my faith. This message hit me hard because although I have moved to the Midwest, I just moved here from Oak Harbor Wa a year and a half ago, I grew up there, and had catholic and Baptist friends there. I pray that God can help them, and us. :) I love them, I do not want them to be lost, I'm praying they won't be, I think I know them, God knows them better. :)

In christian love,
Cindy

Greetings Bro in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ...... I have just sat down and opened my email and for the first time I have actually sat down and read ALL of the message....bro before I thought that when I read your email it was way way over my head....maybe it was my biblical ignorance or maybe it was just me being lazy..... but bro today I sat down and read thru your "conversation" with Pete and man.....the knowledge and wisdom the LOrd has bestowed upon you bro......Praise Him.....for He has found a worthy vessel in you....I pray a hedge of protection around you bro....that the Lord Jesus truly anoints you in such a way that will open thousands of eyes as to the true Word of God.... I think today I have just realised the level of maturity that the Lord has brought me to...now I earnestly read what is right.....but overall bro....I beleive that the Lord has taught me not to dwell on things that I do not understand but to realise that He has a love for us that no man can fully fathom...and as man changes His Word to suit himself the Lord will use you more bro...

...so bless ya bro......
