All God's Children "Christian dogma, such as 'sacrificing' or giving up your children in order to do God's work, adhered to by both groups, is directly responsible for many of the systemic abuses committed within them." - Perry Bulwer

All God's Children "The media is not to blame for the allegations against Bishop Lahey—or the sins of any other priest who uses his spiritual authority to violate a child. If parishioners assume the man saying mass is a molester, it’s because thousands of priests actually were molesters. Law & Order did not invent the stereotype, and neither did newspapers. Priests did."

As long as churches and missions cover up abuse of children the public will continue to see all priests and missionaries as abusers.

Marilou Marshall As a MK I am thankful I never faced what some of you did. My husband and sister-in-laws went to that school. What a horror not only for the children but the parents who had no idea what their children were facing.

All God's Children "Sorry that as children you were taken from your families and placed in
institutions where so often you were abused. Sorry for the physical
suffering, the emotional starvation and the cold absence of love, of
tenderness, of care. Sorry for the tragedy — the absolute tragedy — of
childhoods lost." - Prime Minister Kevin Rudd

CANBERRA, Australia — Prime Minister Kevin Rudd apologized Monday to thousands of impoverished British children shipped to Australia in past centuries with the promise of a better life, only to suffer abuse and neglect thousands of miles from home.

Why does it always bring tears when someone with power speaks the truth we know?

Maybe because it is so rare that truth is spoken in these powerful settings..it ushers in waves of relief, at least for me...

I did not like his comment at the end that this was an incident in one school a long time ago. It is still happening today. It happened 20 years ago at the Fanda School in Senegal in a NTM school. It is happening today but we will not hear about it for another 20 years, children don't talk when threatened. Mission boards don't want to deal with this even today.

Shary, I just now saw what you are referring to - the comment Mark Earley left in addition to his reporting. Yes, that's too bad he now makes it sound as if this was a single event. And it's too bad there is no place to comment in response. Did you send in an email with what you wrote here? It might be a good idea. After all his comment was sparked... See More by emails other people sent in.
The other two transcripts (on cathoclicexchange.com & crosswalk.com) of his report give the option to leave comments directly.
