65. i have no doubt that she was pissed about the pedophilia....
...hell, we're all pissed about it.

i'm just surprised the catholic church (and every church for that matter) is still in business. i'm surprised parishoners all over the world haven't finally had enough and taken action.

i know some devout catholics who will actually stand up for these dirtbag priests and say something like "those kids are just trying to destroy the priests" or "yes, the priests have problems but they need to be forgiven" or some other crap like that.

this problem seems to me to be far more widespread than anyone ever could have imagined. i went to catholic school on the NW side of chicago and the altar boys used to talk about one of the priests that used to touch them inappropriately and try to get them to hang out with him. they were creeped out by the guy. eventually years later he got busted for molesting a couple of altar boys and he got moved to a new parrish. i'm not sure if the douchebag ever got punished.

luckily i was put off by religion as much back then as i am now and i never got involved with that altar boy stuff. priests always generally creeped me out, so i steered clear of them all my life.
