To see what the Catholic Church is really capable of...


...check out the report from the Committee to Inquire into Child Abuse. It chronicled the fine, Jesus-like treatment Catholic Church of Ireland, Ltd put the kids through.

Utterly disgusting, and of course Catholic Church of Ireland, Ltd isn't being held accountable for a single thing. They got the Irish government to make amends for its actions while making certain it would never be held accountable.

After seeing this movie and read up about the whole scandal I hated the Catholic church especially the Pope and I still haven't forgiven the church or the Pope. In fact they demonstrated something that shows how different the religion and the Pope is from the true God and Jesus. God nor Jesus would have lived in such powerful and wealthy style at all, Jesus walked and lived among the poor, the Pope and all his followers live in luxury and that is just wrong.

I have never seen this film before. I am watching it now.
If more people understood what you understand; That NO church is God. If churches break God's law then they become enemies of God. It's just really too bad that people see God and the church, (whether it be catholic or protestant or whatever) as one. That gives a loving God a bad name. It spooks people

It isn't just the church, it is the people that dwell within it that give God a bad name.

I wasn't speaking of a building when I said "the church".
