John Geoghan stands out as one of the worst serial molesters in the recent history of the Catholic Church in America. For three decades, Geoghan preyed on young boys in a half-dozen parishes in the Boston area while church leaders looked the other way. Despite his disturbing pattern of abusive behavior, Geoghan was transferred from parish to parish for years before the church finally defrocked him in 1998.
After a January 2002 report on Geoghan by the Globe Spotlight Team, the case became a catalyst for revelations of other clergy abuse and church coverups. Dozens of priests were accused of abuse by hundreds of alleged victims who filed lawsuits, forcing the archdiocese to release damaging documents that showed the church’s obsession with avoiding scandal and protecting its reputation.
In the Geoghan case alone, some 150 people eventually came forward, claiming they were fondled or raped by the priest. In February 2002, Geoghan was sentenced to nine to 10 years in state prison for molesting a 10-year-old boy at a pool in Waltham. Later, the Boston Archdiocese reached a $10 million settlement with 86 other alleged victims. More than a dozen civil suits are still pending.

Why isn't Cardinal Law in jail as an accomplice of John Geoghan, one of the worst priest pedophilia? http://www.slate.com/?id=2075831 and http://www.vachss.com/help_text/reports/geoghan_law.html
After Law's resignation, rumors abound that he would quietly retire in a monastery. An officer of John Paul II Third Reich, not a chance would he keep his mouth shut. So John Paul II, eating of the fruit of the apple of the Garden of Eden, wanted to "become like God" together with Cardinal Law his cohort in the crime of cover-up of clergy abuse with him. http://jp2m.blogspot.com/2006/10/john-paul-ii-money-50-zloty-banknoteet.html So what did he do? He made Cardinal Law the Archpriest of the St. Mary Magiorre in Rome.

Pedophile priests are merely a symptom of the larger problem
How much more must humanity endure before it becomes clear that religion has always been a purposeful deception that attracts those who seek power and control over others, even if it means pretending to serve the creator. What must transpire before people finally discern that religion and its leaders are wolves in sheep's clothing?
Whether we're tallking about politicians, national and imperial leaders, popes, priests, or other charlatans, these people simply use the strong delusion that is religion to profit from the ignorance of deceived followers and the inaction of others. If a large percentage of the executives of a major corporation were found to be systematically raping children for decades, would people permit that organization to continue in power?
No leader of an empire ever truly believes the religions used to manipulate subjects, and that includes religious empires. That would be like a drug dealer hooked on his product; its bad for business...
Christians often quote things like "know them by their fruits," yet after millennia of being duped into abetting blatantly evil scoundrels, many still don't understand the meaning or import of much of what they read. The same canon paradoxically propounds "faith," which means the complete opposite of "know them by their fruits," i.e., to discern the truth by analyzing deeds and results (works) and to weigh actions instead of merely believing what is said. The deceptive circular logic of posing a fantasy messiah who urges both discernment of the truth and faith (belief without proof) clearly represents a skillful and purposeful effort to impose ignorance and confusion through "strong delusion."
This is the answer to why religious followers so often support and perform blatant evil. They have been purposely deceived and deluded in a manner designed to destroy their ability to discern the truth. Consequently, religious adherents are easily misled about the differences between good and evil, truth and lies, and justice and injustice. Those who cling to "faith" in the presence of stunning and comprehensive proof of errors, lies, and outright deception in these religious canons and by blatantly duplicitous, holier-than-thou leaders are clearly suffering from strong delusion!
Always rely upon the wisdom of knowing them by their deeds and results (fruits, works), when in doubt!
Here is Wisdom !!
