The Government has refused to back down in its row over the Vatican’s handling of cases of clerical sex abuse.
In its formal response to the Vatican’s statement last week, the Government said the now-notorious letter sent in 1997 from the-then apostolic nuncio, Archbishop Storeto, “provided a pretext for some members of the clergy to evade full co-operation with the Irish civil authorities in regard to the abuse of minors”.
In a speech in July that made worldwide headlines, Taoiseach Enda Kenny said the Cloyne report excavated the “dysfunction, disconnection, elitism, the narcissism, that dominate the culture of the Vatican to this day”.
The rape and torture of children were downplayed or “managed” to uphold instead the primacy of the institution, its power, standing and reputation, the Taoiseach said.
The unprecedented speech led to the recall of the Papal Nuncio, Archbishop Giuseppe Leanza, and a formal response from the Vatican last week.
The Vatican’s response disputed the 1997 letter that said mandatory reporting “gives rise to serious reservations of both a moral and a canonical nature”.
It stated that it was merely a “study document” and that in the following year Cardinal Darío Castrillón Hoyos had made it clear to the Irish bishops that the church should not stand in the way of civil justice when it came to clerical child abuse.
That response was sent on September 3rd.
The Government statement this evening said the Taoiseach’s speech and comments from other political leaders “accurately reflect the public anger of the overwhelming majority of Irish people at the failure of the Catholic Church in Ireland and the Holy See to deal adequately with clerical child sexual abuse and those who committed such appalling acts”.
The statement also describes the church’s previous response as “appalling”, but it acknowledged the Vatican had promised a “constructive dialogue and co-operation with the Government”.
The statement added: “In welcoming this commitment the Government expects the fullest co-operation from the Holy See, the Catholic Church in Ireland and all other relevant bodies with a view to ensuing that Ireland is a society fully safe for children and minors and that all of those with responsibility for the welfare and care of children in this country are fully subject to Irish laws and requirements.”
When the Roman Cult staged their first hostile takeover of Catholicism in the 11th Century, one of the first objectives was to corrupt the sacred office of priest and remould it into a new type of “galli” – instead of physically cutting off their genitals, to deny them a normal life and force them to abstain from sex with women. nstead the newly trained “galli” priests of the Roman Cult- the false pretenders who took over Catholicism – introduced many of their pagan satanic doctrines into the role of the priest, by the 13th Century tasked with sacrificing the innocence of children to Moloch, instead of physically murdering them as had been tradition at their Vatican temples.
Hence, “to molest” children in a strict sense remains a most sacred religious rite of the Roman Catholic Church- the Roman Cult in sacrificing the innocence of children to Moloch and to Cybele.

The Vatican – always precise with their words—has condemned pedophilia which is a modern term and has absolutely nothing to do with the ancient worship of Moloch, nor the religious term molest/molestation.

The Catholic church and the Roman Catholic church are 2 different entities with 2 different agendas.

The Roman Cult, also known as the Roman Catholic Cult of the Vatican was first officially founded in 1057 by chief pagan high priest of the cult of Magna Mater (Cybele) known as Gregory VII.
The Roman Cult has never been the legitimate leadership of the Catholic Church.
Extract from this article:-
“Taoiseach Enda Kenny said the Cloyne report excavated the “dysfunction, disconnection, elitism, the narcissism, that dominate the culture of the Vatican to this day”.
Yes, but Enda Kenny also said in this same speech that he is still a “practising Catholic”.

At 5.51 he says: “As a practising Cathlolic, I don’t say any of this easy” …
So, why is Enda Kenny still a member of the Catholic Church, i.e, a “practising Catholic” ?
Why would any adult want to remain a member of a club ( group/tribe/ gang etc) that has caused so much injury or insult to him or her? Unless of course, he or she still believes in Santa, or whatever ..
They needed that to be worded children AND women. Once again, the government omits the women who suffered in Magdalene Laundries. But they mostly got it right. Now let’s see if they walk the walk.
The issues surrounding Catholic belief and authority are compounded by the fact there are some ten categories of Roman Catholicism around the world. If we were to examine each of the above doctrines in detail, examining what the Bible teaches about them on the one hand and what Catholic tradition/doctrine teaching about them on the other, we would discover that Roman Catholicism has denied, altered, or confused all but one or two.

From the above, it appears the men of god will say whatever suits their purpose and is not truly concerned with rape of innocent children, as long as it keeps control over the sheeple from birth to death.
The catholic church are showing energy, determination and ability in defending themselves. What a great pity that they did not show the same qualities in defending and protecting the vulnerable that they undertook to protect and take care of.
Eire will never be safe for children until adults stop covering up the crimes of child rapes and abuse.This notion of keeping the truth hidden is ending. However, the crimes of child rape of the past must be brought to light in order for the victims to heal. No more secret courts and meeting and asking victims to sign secret documents or get no compensation. That is blackmail in common law.
The Vatican is separating out one issue and concentrating on it. They didn’t stay around this long without learning how to play the game.
