@Brodersen.
So you ask a question, you answer it yourself and then you state your conclusion as fact.
Furthermore, without knowing me you’ve stated without question I’m a stupid, weak and poor man; excellent profiling which I’m sure even Derren Brown would be proud of.
The fact I have an IQ of 172, had a successful amateur boxing career and now have a successful business are a little at odds with your assessment however.
Back to the actual subject at hand, at the end of the day power corrupts, and corrupt, perverted priests are in the perfect position to take advantage of the vulnerable.
Shame on the church for hiding such paedophiles and trying to ‘deal with’ such individuals in house to protect their own institution. This is the real disgrace.

According to investigators, Seppia told a friend:
or fellow fiend.

Things so terrible that I cannot repeat them,
“Suffer little children, who come unto me”

Or let me rephrase that:

Please someone tell me if there exists ANYONE in this world who are convinced God exists, but at the same time sincerely wishes he didn’t?

No, because it’s all wish thinking.

FUCKING SICK BASTARDS! This is so disgusting!

Obviously these sick “holy men” know deep down that there is no Hell, otherwise they wouldn’t do this to risk eternal torture in a Hell. Or maybe they just do a quick pray for forgiveness, and everything is fine? Is that not what the church tells you?

Religion is just a stupid mans lie, taking advantage of the weak and poor, with fairy tale stories about someone who loves them, and a better place when you die. And it want money and power (influence).

Please someone tell me if there exists ANYONE in this world who strongly believes in God, but at the same time honestly wishes this God didn’t exist. No, because it’s all wish thinking.

Typical of the church, to prey on the vulnerable, the whole idea of religion is to give people hope. And once again the people who offer the care and solice are the people who violate, abuse and take advantage of their position and most importantly the needy. Shame on those connected!

This story is being misreported everywhere!

Seppia is not an advisor; the advisor is Bagnasco, an archbishop, and Seppia is a priest in Bagnasco’s archdiocese.

Not that it makes the child abuse any better, obviously.

Hi
The blog headline is misleading. When you read the Time report it’s clear that the priest who was arrested is a priest in the diocese of the archbishop who is the Pope’s adviser. The adviser himself has not been arrested.

All terrible in any case, but not quite the same story as the headline would suggest.

The priest is not a policy advisor, just a parish priest within the diocese of the advisor.

And let’s not forget that the RCC claims that is isn’t pedophilia if the child is over ten.
