I, however, have now cited you 7 prestigious studies and/or abstracts that lay bare the truth of its invalidity. <br /><br />and you bringing up the victims and their families as if you really care about them is really rich, ya twink....wanna know the very best way to truly help them AND the Church? Get rid of the faggots and boy-buggers from the priesthood. PERIOD. 85% of the abuse has been perpetrated on young, post-pubescent boys; the favorite target of sodomite predators. Get rid of the faggot protecting bishops, and prelates, and 'POPE'!....there’s your cover-up, ya fop. That would go a loooong way in cleaning up the filth and abuse, and it'll also empty out a large part of the chanceries, especially in Europe. But, no; the cocaine-fueled gay orgies continue unabated, while the ringmasters and participants remain in good standing, just out of the light till the din dies down a bit, while a good man in Columbia is excommunicated for defending the Faith and speaking the Truth. “Fr.” Capozzi, sodo-freak extraordinaire, and myriad others of his ilk are protected by bishops and cardinals who don't want their cover blown either. Hell, Coccopalmerio's personal creampuff, er I mean 'secretary' was even being pushed for bishop….real cozy those rainbow types. 85%!....(John Jay Report)<br /><br />But lemme guess….you don’t like these verified statistics either. Leftisits are the biggest science deniers on the planet. You scream “INTOLERANCE!” while you murder a Trump supporters cause he had a hat on. You holler “BIGOT!” while you shame people for the crime of being white skinned. You rage “HATER!” while you find yourselves having to fake ‘hate-crimes’ to produce any (this is classic!… http://moonbattery.com/links/Hate-Hoax-List.html ….and again, unlike your sorry-ass, fact-less rants, these are all verified).<br /><br />malignantly narcissistic; projection oriented; neurotically immature; intellectually regressive; reality denying; The Left.

You give yourself away by linking your excuse for a defence with ideological tarts like Bill Donohue and his courtier, David La Pierre, the noted bleating troll and denialist extraordinaire.<br />They all ultimately claim their authority from the deluded ‘First Things’ Rat Pack which gathered around the late Richard John Neuhaus. He and his pals like Novak, Weigel, Mary Ann Glendon & Co were the last of the right wing illuminati to wake up to the fact that child sexual abuse was not simply a matter of a ‘few rotten apples’ but was deeply systemic in the priesthood and large sections of religious life. Weigel and Glendon were the classics who drooled over Marcial Marciel calling him a ‘living saint’ etc etc and were among the very last to realise that they had been conned. <br />What has contributed greatly to the courts in many countries now accepting the ‘suppressed memory’ argument is that judicial and law enforcement authorities in some countries such as the UK, Ireland, Australia and in some jurisdictions in Latina America, Canada and the USA have served sub poenas ordering diocesan authorities to surrender secret archives on offending priests. In very many cases, the submissions of victims with ‘suppressed memories’ were matched, time and place with the accused priests and religious. In addition to this, evidence of systemic ‘relocation’ of personnel surfaced. A classic example of corporate cover-up was Cardinal Bevilaqua in 1994 instructing poor miserable underlings like Msgr William Lynn to shred files related to historical cases of child sexual abuse.<br /> <br />This doesn’t matter in the least to Donohue and the Catholic League, La Pierre and his ‘Pro Bono Sacerdotii.’ They are so ideologically conditioned into thinking about the Church along the principles of honor/shame societies that they are incapable of accepting that Church and profound dysfunctionality could be used in the same breath. They perpetuate the great lie and, in doing so, demean the victims, their families and communities and in doing so dishonour Christ.

Dr. Richard J. McNally; Professor...can't read?<br /><br />Dr. Richard J. McNally; Professor and Director of Clinical Training in the Department of Psychology at Harvard University:<br /><br />“The notion that traumatic events can be repressed and later recovered is the most pernicious bit of folklore ever to infect psychology and psychiatry. It has provided the theoretical basis for ‘recovered memory therapy’ — the worst catastrophe to befall the mental health field since the lobotomy era.”<br /><br />Dr. Grant Devilly, from the Psychological Health research unit at Griffith University, agrees with Dr. McNally:<br /><br />“I do not believe there’s such a thing as repressed memory. I haven’t seen a single instance in which a memory was completely repressed and popped up again....I go on science, not fads. And there’s absolutely no proof that it can happen. Zero. None. Niente. Nada. All my research says that strong emotional experiences leave emotionally strong memories. Being sexually molested would certainly qualify.”<br /><br />In addition:<br /><br />"Recovered-memory therapy will come to be recognized as the quackery of the 20th century." – Dr. Richard Ofshe, a social psychologist at the University of California, Berkeley (Leon Jaroff and Jeanne McDowell, “Repressed-Memory Therapy: Lies of the Mind,” Time, November 29, 1993);<br /> "If penis envy made us look dumb, this will make us look totally gullible." – Dr. Paul McHugh, chairman of the psychiatry department at Johns Hopkins University (Leon Jaroff and Jeanne McDowell, “Repressed-Memory Therapy: Lies of the Mind,” Time, November 29, 1993);<br /> "You can’t be raped for 10 years and not remember it. Yet, according to the repression aficionados, anything's possible." – Dr. Elizabeth Loftus, professor of psychology at the University of California Irvine (Sasha Abramsky, “Memory and Manipulation: The trials of Elizabeth Loftus, defender of the wrongly accused,” LA Weekly, August 19, 2004).<br /><br />susannoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4404498638452030181.post-28008833999692723982017-08-11T02:47:37.568-07:002017-08-11T02:47:37.568-07:00how is it possible for a guy...or a xe(?)...to mak...how is it possible for a guy...or a xe(?)...to make a pig's breakfast of absolutely EVERY topic under the sun?<br /><br />susan: "water is wet"<br />feybriel: "no it's not you harpy...research has shown that it's actually quite dry when you get down to the quarkin-bosonist-patempkin substrate....bp. tucho fernandez has done cutting work on the topic, particularly as regards the moistness of lips while kissing...that's a fact." <br /><br />You're simply wrong in your progressive pop-psychology feybriel...do some actual research not funded by the SPLC for a change.

Because of their status within Catholic society, any kind of sexual aberration was unthinkable and child abuse in particular.<br />Furthermore, children would have been totally confused by sexual abuse particularly by priests whom they would have identified with God himself. Being abused by a priest would have meant in a very real way being abused by God. These experiences of role confusion with abusing priests/religious combined with the inability and refusal of the family and the rest of the adult community pushed these experiences deep into children's memories only to surface decades later.<br />The indiscriminate campaign to vilify 'repressed memory syndrome' is fuelled and funded by denialist groups like the Catholic League and 'Pro Bono Sacerdotii.' These and like minded lobby groups perfunctorily label complainants as mercenary 'gold diggers' and opportunists. <br />The legal and heath systems have developed sophisticated testing to determine the genuine from the charlatans.Peter Wnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4404498638452030181.post-49974700383147681152017-08-10T18:25:49.200-07:002017-08-10T18:25:49.200-07:00@N.D.
