Once again the Catholic Church is "struck" by a scandal that involves church officials and young children. You can learn more about the case that unfolded in Nova Scotia, Canada, by reading Globe and Mail.
Globe and Mail also covers an interview with Father Molloy in today's paper. Father Molloy was the priest that a young boy confided in when he 20 years ago observed pornographic material (apparently of young boys ) at the home of Rev. Raymond Lahey - the man that now, 20 years later now has porn charges against him.
Yesterday, I heard an interview with Father Molloy on CBC radio and he said "I wish this case would just go away. It's been 20 years and this case just don't seem to want to go away."
Well, here is news for you Father Molloy - THINGS JUST DON'T GO AWAY! Regardless of how much the Catholic Church just closes their eyes and thereby things "go away" - things are still there. Obviously you can't go around with your eyes closed all the time and once in a while you will catch a glimpse of reality and low and behold - the reality is not the same as with your eyes closed.
I don't really care for or about the Catholic Church - but I do care about its victims therefore I hope to see the Catholic Church actually handle these sex scandals in a proper way (other than closing eyes) and start DEALING with reality to put an end to abuse.
