Over 1,000 children were abused by priests just in PA. Imagine what those numbers are like nationwide and worldwide. The Catholic Church needs to be shamed every second of every day until all pedophile priests are purged from their ranks. People who protect child rapists do not deserve respect.
1,000 victims just in PA.
Imagine that number if every single state did a similar grand jury investigation. Imagine all the other cover ups.
Imagine that number if it goes worldwide.
People who protect child predators are not men of god, and they should be shamed in society until they fucking change.

Now that the correlation between suicide and mental illness have been established in certain situations, has the Roman Catholic Church in the Philippines changed its stance on banning funeral mass and burial in Catholic Cemeteries for people who have committed suicide?
I was educated in a Catholic run private school in my elementary and high school days, and I distinctly remember in my religion class the seminarian claim people who attempt suicide are committing a mortal sin and that these people will go straight to hell.
I wonder how things have changed now in terms of what the Roman Catholic Church teaches, in light of people's awareness of mental illness. Makes me wonder how many suicide victims and their families have been persecuted/ discriminated against before people have accepted the reality of mental illness and depression.
Can anyone share their experiences and thoughts?
