The Pope's Cover-Up

category dublin | crime and justice | other press author Monday April 12, 2010 20:47author by Christine Murphy Report this post to the editors

Razinger's Crimen Sollicitationis : A requirement for the child victim, accused priest, and any witnesses to maintain silence on the matter on threat of excommunication from the Church.

Gary Leupp, Professor of History at Tufts University and Adjunct Professor of Religion reports in Counterpunch that: Ratzinger conducts a devious slight-of-hand, feigning transparency and legal cooperation to obscure a history of concealment of egregious sex abuse instances “for the good of the Universal Church.” That’s the real history here, now requiring him to insist on diplomatic immunity so as not to appear in U.S. courtrooms.

Concerning homosexuality in the RC Church, Leupp states that: The Huffington Report informs us that one Angelo Balducci, a Gentleman of His Holiness, one of those carrying the coffin of Pope John Paul II at his funeral in 2005, has been dismissed along with Vatican choristor Thomas Chinedu Eheim. Seems the latter was procuring young men of precise descriptions (“two black Cuban lads,” a rugby player, a former model from Milan) for the former, who paid them very well for their sexual services.

No surprise here. Just more gayness in the Vatican. And the play for pay aspect isn’t particulary disturbing; this is how things work in the world. But 2000 euros ($ 2,700) per tryst? That just seems unreasonable. Indeed, scandalous.
