Hey, Wilma I miss Toronto during World Cup. All the cars have those little flags on the window and the mini-parades. I don't see it here in Calgary. I was going to put a French flag on my car during the start of the World Cup but Princess said "Don't even think about it. This is not Toronto.&qu...

I know. I didn't say that the victims just let God decide their fate. Yes, I want justice for them like any other person in this thread or the whole planet. I'm just upset because people twisted my words to say that I don't care and let God take care of it. I said, I am not leaving the Church just b...

, if you believe there is a GOD out there let him be the judge. I'm sure there is a place in the afterlife for people like that. Lurker, I am wondering if you would react this way if it was one of your children who had been raped? Somehow, I doubt it. Jewel, Of course, I want justice but sometimes ...

Second of all, the people who covered this up doesn't answer to me but their Creator. But what about the people their actions hurt? It doesn't seem reasonable to ask them to wait for justice until the next world. Aren't the people who did the harm and those who covered it up answerable to them at a...

You and the rest of the media are saying it as if it's the only reason why people are leaving the Church. Sheez! Like I said people have been leaving the church for decades. Yet, there are still people out there who wants to be baptized in the Catholic faith. In fact, there are at least 10 being bap...

NBC Nightly news just had a story from Germany documenting that people leaving the Catholic Church has tripled from a year ago. I will post a link when it becomes available later today or tomorrow at the latest. This newspaper story has collaborating information. http://www.smh.com.au/world/germans...

this is from the first article linked to by Solicitr The Catholic Church is probably the safest place for children at this point in history. I guess only time will tell if that is true or not. I find it incredibly sad that the last five words needed to be added to qualify the statement. Too bad it ...

I do agree with you and some of them are "molested as kids" as well. Plus the fact, children are an easy prey they are very vulnerable. I tossed "alternate sexual outlet" on my post because to some men even women a tween (12-14) are not kids to them anymore, they are young adults...

I'm Catholic born and raised who also attend a Basilian Order run boy's school for 13 years and I am also upset like most of you but I am not changing "affiliations" just because the Pope didn't go too far, which I agree as well. In every religious organization I'm sure there are sexual pr...

Hi folks! Just got from my three week volunteering duties at the Canada Hockey Place! Woohoo! I had the time of my life! I had to stand on my feet eight hours/a day but it's worth it esp. when Canada won the gold. Man, GM Place literally shook. Just signed up for London 2012, crashing at a friend's ...

Simply put. For example ABC company wants to buy some widgets, he then contracts supplier XYZ. In order for supplier XYZ to supply the #widgets that ABC needs he has to buy new machinery. What he can do is lower his selling price of the widgets, and offer ABC company partial ownership (which would t...
