    WHO SAYS CATHOLIC PRIESTS ARE JUST RAPISTS, THEY KILL TOO.

    Genocide term for Rwanda priest

    A Rwandan priest has been jailed for life after a U.N. tribunal extended his sentence for ordering militiamen to burn and bulldoze a church with 1,500 people inside. The International Criminal Tribunal for Rwanda’s ruling came after Roman Catholic priest Athanase Seromba appealed his 2006 conviction, a statement posted on the body’s Web site late Wednesday said. He was originally sentenced to 15 years in prison.

    The tribunal is trying the alleged masterminds of the 1994 Rwandan genocide in which more than 500,000 minority Tutsis and moderate Hutus were killed by Hutu extremists over a 100-day period. The tribunal said it convicted Seromba for “his role in the destruction of the church in Nyange Parish, and the consequent death of approximately 1,500 Tutsi refugees sheltering inside.”

    Seromba was convicted of leading a militia that attacked the people and poured fuel through the roof of the church, while police threw grenades inside. After failing to kill everybody inside the church, Seromba ordered it to be demolished, the tribunal found.

    Thousands of Rwandans have turned away from Catholicism, angered and saddened by the complicity of church officials in the genocide. Priests, nuns and followers were implicated in the killings and some churches were sites of notorious massacres.


    AND

    On 22 April 1994, Séraphine Mukamana had hidden herself in a garage when militias attacked a convent in Sovu in southern Rwanda. "We sought refugee in the garage and closed and barricaded the doors. Outside a bloodbath is going on. Suddenly an orphan begins to weep as it gets to hot in the garage. At once, the killers approach the garage." As the refugees refuse to come out, the militia leader Emmanuel Rekeraho decides to burn them alive in the garage. "'The nuns are coming to help us. They are bringing gasoline,' I heard [Rekeraho] say. Looking through a hole that the militiamen meanwhile had made in the wall, I indeed saw Sister Gertrude and Sister Kisito. The latter was carrying a petrol can. Shortly upon that, the garage is set on fire." Testimony against two Catholic nuns, Sisters Gertrude and Maria Kisito in a Brussels court, May 2001.

    The halls of the Vatican Palace run red with the blood of millions
    And it's chambers echo with the cries and screams of little children
    The stench of it's lies and evasions assault the nose
    And it's ill gotten riches assault the eyes of all who behold them
    Let us pluck, from the dark sea of apathy and indifference
    The sword of righteous indignation and universal truth
    And with it's blade shining is the morning light
    Let us with great anger and furious vengeance wield it's shining steel
    Laying waste to the malignant tumor that is the Catholic Church

    As it has been written
    So shall it be done.

    How dare you say protesting the rape of an estimated one million children Worldwide over a period of forty year "is just trendy".

    It is like saying "Being anti Nazi is just trendy". A really shocking comment.

    So this kind of activity is just fine and dandy with you?

    Rape and sexual molestation were "endemic" in Irish Catholic church-run industrial schools and orphanages, a report revealed today.

    The nine-year investigation found that Catholic priests and nuns for decades terrorised thousands of boys and girls in the Irish Republic, while government inspectors failed to stop the chronic beatings, rape and humiliation.

    The high court judge Sean Ryan today unveiled the 2,600-page final report of Ireland's commission into child abuse, which drew on testimony from thousands of former inmates and officials from more than 250 church-run institutions. Police were called to the news conference amid angry scenes as victims were prevented from attending.

    More than 30,000 children deemed to be petty thieves, truants or from dysfunctional families – a category that often included unmarried mothers – were sent to Ireland's austere network of industrial schools, reformatories, orphanages and hostels from the 1930s until the last facilities shut in the 1990s.

    The findings prompted the new Archbishop of Westminster, the Most Rev Vincent Nichols, to say that it took "courage" for those clergy involved in child sex abuse to confront their actions. In an interview to be broadcast tonight on ITV News at Ten, he said: "I think of those in religious orders and some of the clergy in Dublin who have to face these facts from their past which instinctively and quite naturally they'd rather not look at. That takes courage, and also we shouldn't forget that this account today will also overshadow all of the good that they also did."

    The Irish Survivors of Child Abuse (Isoca), an organisation set up to help victims, condemned the newly appointed head of the Catholic Church in England and Wales for his remarks.

    "Rubbish is too kind of word for what the archbishop has said. I believe I have heard this kind of twaddle uttered by politicians in Ireland like Bertie Ahern, the former prime minister. It is the verbiage of un-reason and it leaves me cold. What the Archbishop really has to do is take a long hard look at the character and nature of the people he is talking about and ask himself if they are capable of being good," said Patrick Walsh.

    The report found that molestation and rape were "endemic" in boys' facilities, chiefly run by the Christian Brothers order, and supervisors pursued policies that increased the danger. Girls supervised by orders of nuns, chiefly the Sisters of Mercy, suffered much less sexual abuse but instead endured frequent assaults and humiliation designed to make them feel worthless.

    "In some schools a high level of ritualised beating was routine ... Girls were struck with implements designed to maximise pain and were struck on all parts of the body," the report said. "Personal and family denigration was widespread."

    Maybe if the Pope could just let slip that God told him that actually he's come round to the idea of contraception, and everyone should start doing it...

    The Vatican is as likely to change it's position on birth control as it is to expel child molesting Priests.

    The Vatican has survive by following one simple rule.

    Formulate all policies to further the economic and political strength of the Church and then justify it with religion.

    They adopted a policy of not allowing Priest to marry simply so all wealth would revert to the Church.

    They oppose birth control because they simply care about the number of Catholics donating to mother Church.

    They support fascist because they pose no threat to their interests.

    They have no morals but simply follow whatever course adds to their wealth an power. Religion being simply an end to that means.

    Still, looking on the bright side -

    According to the prophecies of St Malachy, the next Pope will be the final one.

    I once produced a concept album - It Was A Dark & Stormy Night - based around Malachy's prophecy [and featuring his ghost on one track... not to mention the ghost of William Blake on another...two spectres for the price of one].

    It charts the overthrow of the Vatican, and the fate of the last Pope, who gets beheaded and buried at a cross-roads. You'd like it - want to buy a copy ?

    Oh well, suit yourself. But you can hear tracks [for free] here:

    Perhaps it will be a documentary work not fiction after September 18th.

    Now that would be nice.

    Yeah, it did kind of occur to me that I may have unwittingly written a script for the future... the basic idea for the project seemed to come out of nowhere, and when first mooted I wasn't even aware of the Malachy prophesy, that came in later.

    Maybe by giving the idea some kind of form, a course of action has been set in motion. I may be the instrument of strange powers :eek:

    Or maybe not. Who knows ?

    Religions have lifespans, just like anything else, and the Catholic church - Christianity as a whole - is a kind of grumpy OAP with some rather nasty habits [insert nun joke here]. It'll inevitably drop dead before long anyway.

    News item on Protest the Pope debate (Sept. 1st) in London.

    First Protest the Pope event (a debate on the Papal visit at Conway Hall) sent a clear message to the Catholic apologists involved. The UK will not tolerate hate cults and does not easily forgive child abuse. The massive crowd exceeded all expectations and was in no mood to hear feeble excuses and hypocritical rhetoric.

    A Catholic spokesman said: -

    "The sobering fact is that Protest the Pope have whipped up and created an anti-Catholic mob which they plan to set loose on Pope Benedict and Catholics attending the papal events. The police are going to have their hands full protecting us."

    No. It is your crimes not Protest the Pope which is responsible for the anger. You made your bed now lie in it.

    With comments like this how do they expect people to react?

    A leading adviser to the Archbishop of Westminster has blamed abortion and gay rights for turning Britain into a “selfish, hedonistic wasteland” which has become “the geopolitical epicentre of the culture of death”.

    AND
    Mexico City Archdiocese spokesman Hugo Valdemar : -

    He affirmed, “I do not know of any of you who would like to be adopted by a pair of lesbians or a pair of fags.”

    The Vatican seems to think they can set them selves up above the law, can ignore public opinion, can flaunt their contempt for REAL morals and justice and the public will just sit still and do nothing.

    PROTEST THE POPE is sending a clear message that those days are over.

    I was shocked to read that Pope Benedict was going to praise the Allied Airman who fought the Battle of Britain. Despite his denials, Joseph Ratzinger was a willing and active member of Hitler Youth and manned an anti aircraft battery trying to shoot down those very brave men.

    His friend from those days, Father Berger, now 81, was ordained a Catholic priest alongside Joseph Ratzinger and his brother and is on record as saying "he couldn't understand why Ratzinger had insisted for so long in so many public statements that no one had a choice but to join Hitler Youth" and "he had no choice but to join Hitler Youth was simply not true'.

    The Pope's hypocrisy in this matter is similar to that displayed in his handling of the sex abuse scandals.
