Dawkins asks whether the Church covered up the clerical abuse. Well we know many Bishops did cover up and move priests.<br /><br />Until the Church is honest and open about the clerical abuse and we no longer read of fresh cases emerging every single day the Dawkins of this world will continue to attack the Church for the abuse of boys. <br /><br />The recent conviction of Father David Pearce of Ealing Abbey and the emergence of the cover-up that was going on there at the Civil trial of 2006 shows that many in authority in the Church have learned little. <br /><br />How the Devil must rejoice homosexuals priests and religious have given such ammunition to our enemies. <br /><br />You write: <br /><br />"all Fry and Hitchens had to say was 'condoms, misogyny, raping little boys'"<br /><br />Yes and they will continue to speak of the clerical child abuse since the Church continues to ordain predatory homosexuals to the priesthood. <br /><br />Kyrie eleisonBernard Guinoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4807826652341078989.post-76554428977526786322009-10-28T17:15:40.589+00:002009-10-28T17:15:40.589+00:00We need the expertise of the Catholic Evidence Gui...We need the expertise of the Catholic Evidence Guild updated from Speakers Corner to TV.William Youngnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4807826652341078989.post-617845219535793642009-10-28T12:31:50.807+00:002009-10-28T12:31:50.807+00:00First, Father, thank you for your charitable and s...First, Father, thank you for your charitable and sensible treatment of the proposed ordinariate and the position of those of us Anglicans to whom it is directed(mirrored by the blogs of Frs Finigan and Blake). There's much more sense in the Adur valley, Brighton and Blackfen than among our own hierarchy and among certain nominally "Catholic" scribblers in the national press.<br /><br />As a Grauniad reader somewhat to the left of the stereotype - for instance, I would wish to see it more willing to line up with workers in industrial disputes - I am rather disappointed to be portrayed there as a misogynist, potential member of the "BNP at prayer" and homophobe (while simultaneously being soft on the poofters who abound among the Anglo-Catholic clergy). Dawkins' rant is about par for the course, but what about the nominally "Catholic" journos and, in the case of the BNP jibe, reader who aim this abuse at us?<br /><br />Alan Harrison, Anglican laymanAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4807826652341078989.post-53951074294257450692009-10-27T21:25:08.692+00:002009-10-27T21:25:08.692+00:00His one saving grace is that like me he has bi-pol...His one saving grace is that like me he has bi-polar affective disorder & we generally change our minds daily!<br />The silly insults he hurled all seem to feature in one of his own autobiographies as a homosexual boy 7 his relationships..those debating needed to know more about him & throw a few things back at him..the Hitchens guy just makes me feel SIK!<br />Set up!
