1700 GERMAN CLERICS ABUSED 4000 MALE MINORS
A study commissioned by the German bishops’ conference reports the sexual abuse of thousands of children in that country over a period of 70 years. The report was scheduled to be released later this month, but was leaked Wednesday to German media.
The report was commissioned by the German bishops’ conference and scheduled to be presented on Sept. 25 at the autumn plenary session of the German bishops, as CNA Deutsch reported.
Its methodology is substantially different from that of the Pennsylvania Grand Jury report.
The study documents sexual offenses against “3677 predominantly male minors” between 1946 and 2014, Der Spiegel reported
“1670 clerics are accused of the deeds,” the German magazine reported, saying researchers had “examined and evaluated more than 38,000 personnel and other files from 27 German dioceses.”
Der Spiegel reported that in many cases evidence was found by researchers to have have been “destroyed or manipulated.”
“We are aware of the extent of sexual abuse that is proven by the results of the study. It is oppressive and shameful for us,” Bishop Stephan Ackermann of Trier said in a statement Wednesday. The bishop is Commissioner for Questions of Sexual Abuse in the Church and for Questions of the Protection of Children and Minors of the German bishops’ conference.
“Four years ago we commissioned the study and we bishops in particular are facing up to the results. The first step will be the Assembly in Fulda.”
Ackermann also criticized the leak of  the study documenting the abuse of minors by priests and religious in Germany in the years 1946 to 2014.
In a statement from the German bishops’ conference, Ackermann said: “I regret that the study, which has remained confidential so far, and is the result of four years of research on the subject of ‘Sexual abuse of minors by Catholic priests, deacons and male religious in the area of the German Bishops’ Conference’ was published today.”
“Especially with regard to those affected by sexual abuse, the irresponsible advance publication of the study is a severe blow,” said Ackermann.
“This is all the more exasperating since not even the members of the German Bishops’ Conference so far know the entire study,” he added.
According to the German bishops’ conference, the aim of the study, in which all 27 dioceses of Germany took part, was “to obtain more clarity and transparency about this dark side in our church, not only for the sake of those affected, but also in order to be able to see the misdemeanours for ourselves and do everything possible to ensure that they do not repeat themselves.”
“We are concerned about a responsible and professional approach to the problem. I am convinced that the study is a comprehensive and careful survey that offers figures and analyses from which we will continue to learn. This also applies to the findings that provide a deeper insight into the actions of perpetrators and the behaviour of church leaders over the past decades. Once again, I stress that the study is a measure that we owe not only to the Church, but first and foremost to those affected,” Ackermann said.
PAT SAYS:

 Francis is behaving like a child in a playground who threw a stone and broke a window.

 When he headmaster comes along the child points at another boy and says: "He did it".

 Many thousands of children around the world by clergy and religious.

 Thousands of bishops have covered up all that abuse.

 Francis himself covered up abuse in Argentina AND played a role in the disappearance of two fellow Jesuits.

 And his answer to all of this he says:

 "THE DEVIL DID IT".

It was not the Devil that abused seminarians and young priest's. It was a rotten guy called Theodore Cardinal Mc Carrick.

 It was not the Devil that abused 4000 boys in Germany. It was the 1760 clerics who did it.

 It was not the Devil who buried the 600 babies in the septic tank in Tuam. It was the rotten "brides of Christ".

 It was not the Devil who sexually quizzed two little boys in a room in Drogheda, victims of Brendan Smyth. It was an excuse for a man called Sean Brady.

 Now Frank wants us all to believe that the abusing priests and the covering up bishops were all the victims of the guy with a tail and a fork?

 And as such they are all innocent.

 In this matter Francis has shown his true colours. Protect the institution. Protect the hierarchy. Protect the clergy.

 Blame the Devil!

 Even the Devil in Hell must be disgusted at the level of absolute corruption in the RC junta.

 As Patrick Kavanagh wrote:

A View of God and the Devil


I met God the Father in the street
And the adjectives by which I would describe him are these:
Amusing
Experimental,
Irresponsible - 
About frivolous things
He was not a man who would be appointed to a Board
Nor impress a bishop
Or gathering of art-lovers.

He was not splendid, fearsome or terrible
And yet not insignificant.
This was my God who made the grass
And the sun
And stones in streams in April;
This was the God I met
In an old quarry full of dandelions.
This was the God I met in Dublin
As I wandered the unconscious streets.

This was the God that brooded over the harrowed field - 
Rooney's - beside the main Carrick road
The day my first verses were printed - 
I knew Him and was never afraid
Of death or damnation
And I knew that the fear of God was the beginning of folly.

          The Devil
I met the Devil too,
And the adjectives by which I would describe him are these:
Solemn, 
Boring, 
Conservative.
He was a man the world would appoint to a Board,
He would be on the list of invitees for a bishop's garden party,
He looked like an artist.

He was the fellow who wrote in newspapers about music,
Got into a rage when someone laughed;
He was serious about unserious things;
You had to be careful about his inferiority-complex
For he was conscious of being uncreative.
