Religion

Posted on April 5, 2010

I was raised Catholic. I no longer practice. I believe that all organized religion is a sham. Invented by man to intimidate man. Look at the history of the world. It speaks for itself. For the Catholic Church to be “defensive” about the pedophiles in its midst is an affront to everything, and everyone, that is decent. These so called “men of God” used their positions of power and influence to advance their own deviant sexual desires. For the church to defend them in any way is despicable.
I went to a Catholic high school in Toronto. I was a resident in the school, going home on weekends. I never saw, nor was I expose to sexual abuse, but there was plenty of physical abuse. And the “priests” weren’t afraid to use it. In Math class, our teacher, a large grossly overweight pig of a man, who smelled like a barnyard, loved to literally beat the shit out of anyone who had the temerity to do, what he considered, anything wrong in his class. Another, who was the dorm prefect, would walk the halls at night, silently. He would listen for any unusual sound. If a boy was caught out of bed without a legitimate reason, he was taken to the “priests” office and strapped. Another “priest” would carry a foot-long length of black garden hose under his cassock and strap anyone who stepped out of line. A side ways glance at this animal was sometimes enough. These were not, and are not, “men of God” they are common criminals and should be treated as such. Jail is too good for them, they should be handed over to their victims for the justice they truly deserve. Not a very “Christian” attitude is it? Neither is theirs when it comes to the abuse of power and trust.
