An Australian commission will soon release its report of a years-long investigation into sexual abuse of children in Catholic churches, and the results are expected to be devastating.
It not only let them keep ticking away but also covered up the pedophiles’ evil deeds to protect its reputation.
The extent of the cover-up is still being dissected by the child abuse royal commission but victims advocacy group Broken Rites spokesman Dr Wayne Chamley expects its report will be absolutely scathing of the Catholic Church.

“Everybody knew about it and they decided they were going to try and battle it out and just keep it under wraps so you have all those cover-ups and moving people around,” he said.

Yeah, well … welcome to the club. I’ve gasped more than once at the cynicism of the godly.
But, then, most of us are reared with the ambient idea that the godly folk are somehow better, uniquely good, more … trustworthy, more … honorable. That’s a marketing lie, probably the most successful in history. Christianity is just a cult that made it to the Big Time; once you understand that, everything else falls right into place.
