John Paul II the Phantom of VPP Victims of Pedophile Priests

John Paul II is the Athlete of God with an Achilles Heel his John Paul II Pedophile Priests Army outnumbering the Swiss Guards and the Legion of King Herod.

There are more American victims 12,000 than the 5,000 victims of 9/11 WTC attacks and Americans should commemorate these fellow American little brothers (and sisters) who were sodomized by pedophile priests and whom John Paul II ruled over and covered-up for more than 26 years.

Like Obama, John Paul II is a phantom, the Phantom of the VPP Victims of Pedophile Priests .

=====
Barack Obama wants the public to think he's Mr. Nice Guy, soft-spoken, erudite, a new kind of politician, new, fresh, unique, uniter. He's going to come around and he's going to just wave his hand and all of these partisan feelings of rancor are going to vanish. He is inciting partisan feelings of rancor; he is inciting hatred; he is inciting racism; he is using every tactic he can to make people as mad as he can make them, all for the purpose of manipulating them for their support. He's Mr. Nice Guy while his thugs are in Alaska looking for dirt on Sarah Palin, hacking into her personal e-mail account while he runs race-baiting ads and lies about what he's done and lies about what Senator McCain has done. He's running a two-tier campaign. Chicago tactics behind the scenes, new politics imagery in front of the cameras, Barack Obama, a man whose mask has been removed. There can be no mistake who he is now. There can be no conclusion other than he is just an average Chicago thug, typical liberal Democrat politician when you strip everything else away.

Rush's Opening Monologue... Barack Obama: Fraud and Disgrace --http://www.rushlimbaugh.com/home/daily/site_091808/content/01125106.guest.html --

UNIDENTIFIED MALE: Obama. '08.

HOWARD: Obama and all that (bleep).

You heard it, Obama '08. So here's an Obama supporter, another one, in addition to Reverend Jeremiah Wright saying God bleep America. This man has become wealthy in this country, Josh Howard has. And, by the way, it's not just black athletes. There are certain black singers who are refusing to sing the national anthem at black events. They're singing the black national anthem, whatever that is. So what's happened here, folks, is panic has set in on the Obama side. I've got a piece here by Howard Fineman, and we've had these pieces all week long from supporters, "You've gotta get tough out there. You're too cool. You're too laid back. You gotta start firing back," and he is. He's lying about people in television ads, he is dredging up and he is promoting racism. He is behaving like a segregationist from the 1950s. Barack Obama is a disgrace. So much for all this postracial, postpartisan, change future mantra. So much for The Messiah, the one who's going to lower the levels of the sea. He is nothing more than a Chicago thug street organizer in the mode of Saul Alinsky, and, by the way, Saul Alinsky's kid works for public television in Boston and wrote an op-ed congratulating Obama on executing Alinsky tactics to the T, said it was a great honor to his father. Yeah, I had it in yesterday's Stack.


Let me tell you what happened here. After Sarah Palin was chosen and Obama started dropping in the polls, he and his hacks got together and said, look, we gotta do whatever we have to do, unleash whatever we have to unleash, say whatever we have to say, crush whomever we have to crush. This is war, take no enemies, do it now, because Obama, the bloom is off your rose, people do not see you the way you want them to see you. They don't see you the way they saw you six months ago, and so we're back to barroom politics here. Forget that you're going to be called a hypocrite, doesn't matter, people won't remember, we're going to so distract them by attacking them that you'll get away with it. Obama has been running commercials in northern Virginia saying that McCain wants to overturn Roe v. Wade and the ad says which would prevent women from getting abortions. Now, the truth is that if that ever happened it would mean that the states would decide the issue, or even Congress for that matter. Reversing Roe v. Wade would not end abortions, to my great disappointment, but nevertheless that's the case.

Now, this guy is supposed to be a constitutional scholar. Don't forget his resume. Constitutional scholar, he taught law, he was head of the Harvard Law Review. So you'd think he would know this. And of course he does know this, but he's a pathological liar. He is a schemer. He is a street agitator. He doesn't want to persuade people to agree with him. He doesn't want to even try to tell them why they should elect him and he's making a mistake about this because this election is going to be a referendum about him. This is not going to be an up or down on McCain; it's going to be a referendum on Obama, and the more he continues to attack McCain and Palin the more damage he is doing to himself. I got a story from the North Carolina website yesterday. They've run some numbers just for North Carolina and they have concluded that Obama is going to get all the black vote. And, by the way, that's of course not racist, all the black vote going to the black guy, that's not racist, no, we should expect that. I mean, if all the white vote went to a white candidate, that would be racist, right? Anyway they've run the numbers, and this is North Carolina, but you might be able to extrapolate this to the nation at large, they have discovered out there that if he gets all the black vote, which he will, he's going to need 36% of the white vote to win North Carolina, given turnout projections and this sort of thing, 36% of the white vote in order to win in North Carolina. And they've run the numbers and right now he's not even near 30 in North Carolina.

So let's recap here. He's running ads in Hispanic communities that are full of lies in hope of inflaming racial hatred. This is exactly what he's doing, and it's really cheap and it's low-down to run 'em in Spanish. It is an insult to Hispanics who live in this country. He is running ads in the south highlighting the white side of his family in hopes of using race to connect with those voters. He's running ads in other parts of the country lying about abortion in hopes of gaining support with certain women. He is also lying about his role in pushing for financial reforms, and he's also lying about his role in the stimulus package claiming it was his bill when he wasn't even there to vote on it. He's just a fraud. Barack Obama is a fraud. He is using commercials, he is using media, and he is using his own speeches to promote a hoax. Did you see, by the way, the New York Times announced that in August, revenues from continuing operations decreased another 8.8%. What's next? Are we going to bail out the New York Times? And, by the way, we're not through talking about this financial mess, folks. It's going to be integrated in the program today but I just want to tell you, if some group had hacked into Obama's or Biden's private e-mail account and those of their family members, I'm just guessing here -- he-he-he -- I'm just guessing, but I think the reaction would be a-full- throated outrage.

There would be congressional hearings. The Democrats would be having cows, and other animals. They would be all over the place in anger and outrage, and what are we getting? "Palin's E-mail Habits Echo Worst Practices of Bush Administration, Says Expert." So ABC picks some liberal hack, calls him an expert and then runs this garbage about her hacked e-mails. And one other thing about this ad featuring me, which a couple of pieces in the Drive-By Media have been awesome on this. Jake Tapper at ABC nuked it, so did Jonathan Martin at The Politico. But the thing about this ad, aside from taking me out of context and lying about it -- and I've been in the rough and tumble of politics for a long time, I understand that -- but using these kind of lies, and they had to see the whole transcript here, they knew they were taking this out of context. They are insulting the intelligence of Hispanics. The ad's also going to run in Florida, by the way, as well as New Mexico, Colorado, and Nevada, I believe. In fact, Obama is going to be in New Mexico this afternoon making a speech. But what's really insulting about this is that he links me with McCain.

Everybody knows, even in the Drive-Bys, everybody knows I am not a huge fan of Senator McCain, and when it comes to amnesty and comprehensive immigration reform, Senator McCain and I are not even in the same room much less on the same page. And yet they run this ad claiming to associate me with McCain. Now, the Drive-Bys don't question that. They promote it. But at the same time the Drive-Bys are not interested in Obama's relationships with Jeremiah Wright, William Ayers, the freak Father Pfleger, and, of course, Bernardine Dohrn. It's all unfolding before our very eyes, the genuine mean-spirited, extreme radicalism of Barack Obama. And, by the way, may I ask another question? I keep seeing Sarah Palin all over television. I see Cindy McCain all over television. I mean, there's Sarah Palin right now in Cedar Rapids, Iowa. Anybody see Michelle (My Belle) Obama lately? Watching the kids, right, she's watching the kids. Why is she not running around with Obama? Why is she not? What's the problem here? What are they trying to hide? This whole campaign is one of deception, deceit, and fraud. I love it. I absolutely love it. This guy is unqualified. He is not a presidential candidate; he is a presidential operative. They found somebody from an opposition research war room and they made him the candidate.


BREAK TRANSCRIPT

RUSH: Now, this is interesting, too. I got a couple of e-mails, just two in the Rush 24/7 account today, "Rush, please, we know the truth about this ad with you and Obama and McCain in the Southwest. Don't waste your time on this, don't let 'em distract you. You gotta keep hammering this financial thing. They're just trying to distract you with this." And I thought about this, and I said, "Either these two people are Obama supporters that have gotten in, or they're being too smart by half, because this is an election, the referendum is going to be up and down on Barack Obama and he's telling us who he is now, and I have to tell you, this ad, it's disappeared from the major dailies. The only place I can find any reference to it that doesn't correct it is an AP story, not surprisingly an AP story, in the San Francisco Chronicle. But I do have a few things to say about this, because this ad -- look, I understand the rough and tumble of politics. I've been around a few decades. I've been the target of my share of stuff.

This isn't just about me. This is an attack on you and tens of millions of other Americans who dare to legitimately and civilly raise objections to illegal immigration. This is a pandering ad insulting the intelligence of Hispanics living in Florida, New Mexico, Nevada, and Colorado; is that right? I think those are the four states. Yeah. It's cheap that it's done in the Spanish language, I'm sure Obama thought this would be under the radar and that nobody would ever hear about it and he'd get away with it. But this is something that goes far beyond me. This is an insult to a whole lot of people. Obama is lying to Hispanics. He is treating Hispanics with disrespect. He's assuming they're not bright enough to know or to learn the truth. The truth is that Barack Obama is not a unifier. We just had this two-minute ad yesterday in which he decried the old partisan politics of the past and he said we've gotta move beyond that, people don't want that. What's he doing? He is getting into the partisan politics of the past right out the Democrat Party and leftist Drive-By Media playbook. So he says one thing in public as Cool Hand Luke and so forth, ah, they swoon, and down in the trenches it's the community agitator Saul Alinsky-trained Barack Obama, trying to manipulate Hispanics, as he has manipulated blacks, he has manipulated whites, he manipulated the middle class. He doesn't try to persuade people to agree with him. He doesn't try to persuade people and uplift people anymore. No, no. This is about search-and-destroy.

What kind of presidential candidate would have such contempt for his fellow citizens, what kind of presidential candidate would have such contempt for the Hispanic community that he would target them with lies because he thinks they'll be too ignorant to learn or understand the truth? The fact is he can't stand for them, he can't run the risk that they will learn the truth. They have to be lied to, just as you have to be lied to. Liberalism is a lie. The only way liberalism can prosper is if it gets away with its lies. It has gotten way with lies in this financial mess, it's gotten away with lies in Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, it's gotten away with lies in the Great Society. Liberalism is a continuing, ongoing lie. They mask it well sometimes. Other times they blow it. In this case, Obama has blown it. It is obvious that this ad is a full-fledged, 100% lie, because he thinks the very people he wants to represent are too stupid and too ignorant to learn or understand the truth.

Now, what kind of legitimate presidential candidate disrespects people this way? What kind of presidential candidate spends millions in Spanish-language ads trying to manipulate people, to upset them, to anger them for the sole purpose of trying to seize their votes? You've heard the name Saul Alinsky. If you don't know who Saul Alinsky is, you're still confused, you're watching Saul Alinsky if you pay attention to Barack Obama. To take part of a comment such as mine completely out of context knowingly, then to insert it into an ad to completely misstate its context and to do so for the purpose of inflaming racial hatred, this is what Obama is doing. He wants the audience in these four states that hear this ad to end up hating Senator McCain. All this in the hopes of gaining votes. This is as low and loathsome as it gets. Barack Obama is stoking racism in this country. There can't be any legitimate disagreement of views. There is no other side. The other side just has to be gotten away with, or gotten rid of. He is a disgrace.

Barack Obama wants the public to think he's Mr. Nice Guy, soft-spoken, erudite, a new kind of politician, new, fresh, unique, uniter. He's going to come around and he's going to just wave his hand and all of these partisan feelings of rancor are going to vanish. He is inciting partisan feelings of rancor; he is inciting hatred; he is inciting racism; he is using every tactic he can to make people as mad as he can make them, all for the purpose of manipulating them for their support. He's Mr. Nice Guy while his thugs are in Alaska looking for dirt on Sarah Palin, hacking into her personal e-mail account while he runs race-baiting ads and lies about what he's done and lies about what Senator McCain has done. He's running a two-tier campaign. Chicago tactics behind the scenes, new politics imagery in front of the cameras, Barack Obama, a man whose mask has been removed. There can be no mistake who he is now. There can be no conclusion other than he is just an average Chicago thug, typical liberal Democrat politician when you strip everything else away.

John Paul II Catholic Church crisis mirrors Wall Street crisis

John Paul II is being canonized at the speediest possible time by Benedict XVI and the Opus Dei, but they are not talking about his Achilles Heel which is the John Paul II Pedophile Priests Army which he led with the Opus Dei for more than 26 years.

Catholic Church crisis mirrors Wall Street crisis

The lead story this morning, 9.15.2008, on the website of the Wall Street Journal is chilling.

For those who have eyes, let them see.

The best and the brightest on Wall Street invested in risky mortgage loans. Their greed and poor management has resulted in the downfall of Bear Stearns, Freddie Mac, Fannie Mae, Lehman Brothers, and Merrill Lynch and has the world's largest insurance company, American International Group (AIG), at the financial precipice.

The best and brightest in the Vatican invested in risky priests, pedophiles who raped kids. Rather than addressing this worldwide problem early, the Vatican and their episcopal puppets with their hubris and arrogance kept the criminal priests in ministry and moved them from parish to parish without telling anyone of the risk. To maintain the cover up, these same incompetent officials have paid out billions in reparations to victims and untold millions to their hardball lawyers and high-priced spin doctors, a/k/a public relations firms. The best and brightest in the Vatican invested in bishops who would be doctrinally pure, especially on such hot-button issues as abortion, women priests, and celibacy. Many of these doctrinally pure bishops couldn't meet a payroll in a small business employing 10 people, yet they find themselves as CEOs of multi-million dollar corporations. When pushed to defend themselves, these same bishops immediately cite a claim of apostolic succession, as if that solves all problems. What a sorry excuse for a governance structure.

Crisis on Wall Street as Lehman Totters,Merrill Is Sold, AIG Seeks to Raise Cash
Fed Will Expand Its Lending Arsenal in a Bid to Calm Markets;
Moves Cap a Momentous Weekend for American Finance
By CARRICK MOLLENKAMP, SUSANNE CRAIG, SERENA NG and AARON LUCCHETTI
September 15, 2008 7:57 a.m.

NEW YORK - The American financial system was shaken to its core on Sunday. Lehman Brothers Holdings Inc. said it would file for bankruptcy protection, and Merrill Lynch & Co. agreed to be sold to Bank of America Corp.

It was a gut-wrenching weekend for Wall Street, with Lehman Brothers headed toward possible liquidation, Merrill Lynch about to be taken over and AIG facing shareholder wrath. WSJ's Dennis Berman and Matthew Karnitschnig look at what's ahead.
The U.S. government, which bailed out Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac a week ago and orchestrated the sale of Bear Stearns Cos. to J.P. Morgan Chase & Co. in March, played much tougher with Lehman. It refused to provide a financial backstop to potential buyers. Without such support, Barclays PLC and Bank of America, the two most interested buyers, walked away. Barclays said Monday it pulled out of the potential deal after deciding it wasn't in the best interest of shareholders.

Early Monday morning, Lehman filed for protection under Chapter 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code with the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of New York. Lehman said none of the broker-dealer subsidiaries or other subsidiaries of LBHI will be included in the Chapter 11 filing and all of the broker-dealers will continue to operate. Customers of Lehman Brothers, including customers of its wholly owned subsidiary, Neuberger Berman Holdings LLC, may continue to trade or take other actions with respect to their accounts, Lehman said.

On Sunday night, Bank of America struck an all-stock deal to buy Merrill Lynch for $29 a share, or $50 billion. (See related article.)

Though it steered clear of a bailout, the Federal Reserve is expected to take new steps to stabilize the broader financial system. These steps, expected to be temporary, would make it easier for banks and securities firms to borrow from the central bank by using a wider range of collateral. Bankers say these financial institutions might need short-term funds as they unwind their many trading positions with Lehman. (See related article.)

How long will it be before the financial sector is stabilized, and what will it take to help bring that about? How should investors respond in the meantime? Share your thoughts.

The Lehman board authorized the filing of the Chapter 11 petition in order to protect its assets and maximize value, the firm said. In conjunction with the filing, Lehman intends to file a variety of first-day motions that will allow it to continue to manage operations in the ordinary course. Those motions include requests to make wage and salary payments and continue other benefits to its employees.

Lehman said it is exploring the sale of its broker-dealer operations and, as previously announced, is in advanced discussions with a number of potential purchasers to sell its Investment Management Division. Lehman said it intends to pursue those discussions as well as a number of other strategic alternatives.
Neuberger Berman LLC and Lehman Brothers Asset Management will continue to conduct business as usual and will not be subject to the bankruptcy case of the parent company, and its portfolio management, research and operating functions remain intact. In addition, fully paid securities of customers of Neuberger Berman are segregated from the assets of Lehman Brothers and aren't subject to the claims of Lehman Brothers Holdings' creditors, Lehman said.

The damage on Wall Street is the latest consequence of a storm that began last year with the sharp decline in American housing prices and losses on loans and other assets tied to home values. Massive capital infusions have failed to stem write-offs and losses, and financial firms are running out of options to escape the damage.

Regulators and others were preparing for a hectic Monday. The New York Stock Exchange prepared contingency plans over the weekend to reassign the approximately 200 blue-chip stocks that Lehman's specialist unit trades, according to people familiar with the matter. If Lehman is forced into liquidation, the exchange will likely transfer the stocks to one or more of the remaining specialist firms, most likely using the same technology and staff that currently trade the stocks.
Dozens of Wall Street desks have trades with Lehman. As word spread that the Barclays deal was falling apart, worries that the company could be thrown into bankruptcy mounted, and traders labored to get out of those contracts.

At approximately 2:30 p.m., government officials hosted a call, and a trading session was opened to ease fears. One trader said it was agreed that other brokers would pick up contracts that trading desks have with Lehman. If Lehman does open on Monday, the deals struck on Sunday, often at a worse price, would be void. "It is utter chaos here," the trader said.
At many Wall Street firms, traders of credit-default swaps - contracts that act as insurance against debt defaults - were told to come to work immediately. Concerned investors were rushing to buy swaps tied to other brokerages and corporations, sending the cost of protection on investment banks such as Goldman Sachs and others sharply higher.

In a statement Sunday, the International Swaps and Derivatives Association, a trade group whose members include many large dealers, said a "netting trading session" took place between 2 p.m. and 6 p.m. on Sunday. The idea was to allow firms to try to unwind their derivatives transactions with Lehman by finding other parties to step into Lehman's shoes.

"The purpose of this session is to reduce risk associated with a potential Lehman Brothers Holdings Inc. bankruptcy filing," it said. It added that trades conducted during this period "are contingent on a bankruptcy filing on or before 11:59 p.m. New York time" on Sunday. If no filing takes place, the trades will be canceled, ISDA said.

Some traders said it was difficult to find new counterparties for many of their outstanding trades with Lehman. The snags included different terms and maturity dates on derivatives contracts, and market prices changed rapidly Sunday afternoon. "People were screaming at each other over the phone, asking: How can this work?" one trader said.

William Gross, chief investment officer at bond-fund giant Pacific Investment Management Co., said very few Lehman trades were offset. "There's an immediate risk related to the unwind of these positions," he said.

Many Wall Street firms concluded that a liquidation of Lehman's assets likely would proceed in an orderly fashion, people familiar with the situation said. That means other firms could quickly buy real estate, securities and other investments, preventing the assets from flooding the market. Because of that, these people said, some participants in the New York Fed talks decided that liquidation was no worse an option than selling Lehman to a buyer such as Barclays.

"There will be an orderly wind down," said one banker involved in the matter. "This was the default option. It happens when you have no buyer."

The outside firms decided that instead of making guarantees for Barclays or some other purchaser of Lehman, they would prefer to pool their resources and buy the assets themselves, taking on the risks and carrying costs, along with the possibility of profiting down the road.

Those firms would likely then buy assets such as mortgage-backed securities, leveraged loans, private-equity positions and investments in real estate or hedge funds.

Roger Freeman, a nine-year Lehman employee who analyzes brokerage firms, spent the weekend gathering cellphone numbers and email addresses from colleagues who also are likely to lose their jobs. He plans to clean out his desk Monday morning. "We worked long hours here, we've made some of our best friends here. We're suddenly being ripped apart," he said. "It's just unbelievable."

9/11 anniversary of victims of John Paul II Pedophile Priests Army

This JP2M web/blog was inspired by a vision of St. Michael the Archangel in July 2002 when the late John Paul II came to America for his last WYD World Youth Day. The full vision of Paris Arrow, a pen name for personal protection from the Pope's White Mafia (Opus Dei et al) will be revealed as time goes by.

The mission of JP2M is to be in solidarity with the victims of the 26 years papacy of John Paul II -- by showing to America and the world why John Paul II must never be called a "saint" in American lips, in American soil and in every nation where his army, the JPIIPP John Paul II Pedophile Priests reigned in secrecy and cover-up under his Holy See......


Compare the CRIMES and their VICTIMS in America


Victims - Attackers - Responsible Leader

Pearl Harbor - 3,000 victims - 170 planes - Admiral Yamamoto

WTC & 9/11 attacks - 5,000 victims - 19 Muslims - Osama bin Laden

USA Priest Pedophilia - 12,000 victims - 5,478 priests - John Paul II, Benedict XVI and Opus Dei - the Vatican trinity



Excuses like "I was not aware", "the dog ate my homework", " I spoke out" are not going to cut it with Christ who has been reported by Gospel writers to have said: "Woe to whoever causes one of these little ones who believe in Me to sin, it would be better for him to have a great millstone hung around his neck and to be drowned in the depths of the sea......"

The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil
is for enough good men and women
to do and say nothing.



John Paul II the Great was like Achilles, he was unsurpassable by many popes.


(click on image to enlarge
...scroll down slowly to see next image)

John Paul II ruled for more than 26 years, the second longest papacy in Christendom. He beatified and canonized 1,340 saints more than previous popes combined by abolishing the office of Promotor Fidei, "Promoter of the Faith" otherwise known as the Devil's Advocate which streamlined the process of canonization. He wrote many encyclicals, books, countless homilies that must be studied and qouted for all time to come. He silenced many good theologians who disagreed with what he said and wrote. He suppressed Liberation Theology in Latin America and all the Jesuits who wrote and spoke about it.

John Paul II was an actor before he became a priest. He was a real actor when he was pope. While he was dressed in white and lived a holy lifestyle, a part of his body, his heel was corrupt and evil - because he led his JPIIPP John Paul II Pedophile Priests Army to sodomize non-stop 12,000 American little boys (and girls, not counting other countries...) He trot around the globe appearing like a superstar commanding millions of people to attend his papal Mass; but wherever he went, he left the mark of his JPII Achilles Heel - when he covered-up the priest pedophilia under his holy feet.




John Paul II called the priesthood the "Office of Love" but only his JPIIPP John Paul II Priest Pedophiles were the most devious group of men ever to be qualified and allowed to commit the most heinous crime against children in the history of humankind. At the WYD World Youth Day, he refused to address this crime while it was erupting in Boston and the laity pleaded for the removal of Cardinal Bernard Law. He wrote a letter to his priests calling pedophilia the "worst evil". But he did NOTHING about it. He did not even try to stop ONE of those little boys from being sodomized. Many were altar boys repeatedly sodomized in churches around the USA and the world. As the Supreme Pontiff of his army of JPIIPP John Paul II Priest Pedophiles, he shall forever be marked in history as "John Paul II the Pope of Sodomy".

The vision of Paris Arrow: St. Michael the Archangel, at the WYD, bent over and whispered in John Paul II's ear, "Repent, and tell your JPIIPP army to stop NOW, do it in front of these young people from around the world." John Paul II replied, "Never, I shall never mar my papacy, I shall be called the Greatest Pope on earth, infallible and impeccable." St. Michael said, "You have a few months left to live, your time is running out, I shall give you all the chances..."

John Paul II in Inferno of the Divine Comedy of Dante

John Paul II is in the bottom pit of Hell and in the Tenth Circle of the Inferno of the Divine Comedy by Dante. Benedict XVI and the Opus Dei will join him there because as the Vatican Trinity they allowed the free reign and free lust buffet of the John Paul II Pedophile Priests Army for 26 years.

--------

Written by Dante Alighieri in the 14th century, The Divine Comedy is widely considered one of the greatest works of world literature. The poem’s imaginative and allegorical vision of the Christian afterlife is a culmination of the medieval world-view as it had developed in the Western Church.


The Divine Comedy is divided into three parts: Inferno (Hell), Purgatorio (Purgatory), and Paradiso (Paradise).

In the Inferno, the Roman poet Virgil guides Dante through the nine circles of Hell. The circles are concentric, representing a gradual increase in wickedness, and culminating at the center of the earth, where Satan is held in bondage. Each circle’s sinners are punished in a fashion fitting their crimes: each sinner is afflicted for all of eternity in a manner befitting the chief sin he committed.


Each sin’s punishment in Inferno is a symbolic instance of poetic justice; for example, fortune-tellers have to walk forwards with their heads on backwards, unable to see what is ahead, because they tried to do so in life. Allegorically, the Inferno represents the Christian soul seeing sin for what it really is.


A tip of the hat to the wonderful Internet Wikipedia from which the above summary was crafted.


The Tenth Circle, a powerful reflection by Vinnie Nauheimer, follows. It describes Vinnie’s vision of how clerical sex abusers of children and their enablers will ultimately be dealt with.


Readers beware: the language is graphic and may be triggering for some victims of clerical sexual abuse.

The Tenth Circle

By Vinnie Nauheimer


While heading back to his office from lunch, Charlie took notice of the truck making a delivery to Joe’s Deli. Not because it was out of the ordinary, but because there were several boxes precariously perched on the edge of the side door and they were swaying in the strong March breeze. The next thing Charlie saw was a young boy about five or six years old walking past him. The kid was doing a balancing act while walking along the edge of the curb. Just as the boy walked under the boxes, a strong gust of wind blew and the boxes started on their descent to the sidewalk.


Charlie acted on instinct as he knew the potential outcome. He darted toward the curb, snatched the boy out from under the falling boxes, and slipped while trying to avoid a head on collision with a parking meter. Charlie managed to set the boy down as his momentum propelled him towards the sidewalk. He tried to break his fall with an outstretched hand, but his momentum was too great for his hand to function as a brake. For this heroic effort he received a scratched palm, bruised knee and a ruined suit. Once again, in trying to do the right thing, Charlie found himself in pain. Worse was the fact that no one witnessed the event. By the time he had gotten up and inspected the damage to his knee, the child was gone. Run off to play no doubt and probably totally oblivious to what could have happened. The only thing the truck driver saw was Charlie getting up alongside the boxes scattered on the sidewalk. His only concern was about getting sued.


Charlie lay in bed praying for sleep that evening. The pain shooting from his knee and hand were reminders of the day’s events, just like the pain in his heart reminded him of this past year’s troubles. “Who was that kid anyhow?” he asked himself. Then he told himself it didn’t make a difference because the kid didn’t get hurt.

After reliving the day’s events, Charlie’s mind turned to what was had been eating at him for months: his son’s molestation at the hands of their parish priest. He prayed as he prayed every night lately, “Please God! Let me know that going public wasn’t a futile gesture on my part. Tell me my sense of righteousness didn’t get in the way of my better judgment. Tell me that the publicity surrounding this suit won’t make things worse for my son. Let me know there is a purpose to this mortifying charade that has torn my family, my community and me apart. Most of all, Lord, let me that my son will be all right.” These were the same prayers that Charlie recited so many times during the past few months as he lay in bed desperately wanting the escape only a deep sleep could provide.

Once again, as he lay staring at the ceiling, the litany of whys started in his head: Why was his son chosen as a victim? Why was the Archdiocese protecting this pedophile priest who wronged not only his son, but others? Why did they keep this priest on as pastor in spite of the overwhelming evidence against him? Why did the Archdiocese attack me and my family as if we were the guilty parties? Why have some of my friends, neighbors, community and church members turned against me? Why was this happening to me and my family? Tired of no answers to these questions, Charlie faced the onerous task of telling his mind to shut up so he could sleep. Finally, Charlie prayed for sleep. God was prepared to grant his wish this night.


Charlie tossed and turned trying to find a comfortable position for his swollen knee. When at last he found one, the mantle of sleep quickly enveloped him. Moments later, his consciousness was transported to a strange and beautiful place where peace and tranquility seemed to permeate the very air. As he walked about lush vegetation he felt the serenity that he had been seeking all his life. Walking down a path towards him was the same young boy from the truck incident earlier in the day. Charlie smiled at the boy and the boy smiled back saying, “My name is Innocence.”


Charlie felt an overwhelming sense of calm as the boy neared him. “Come,” said the boy as he reached for Charlie’s hand. He held it like any child would hold his own father’s. At once Charlie felt the unconditional love that emanated from the child’s hand as it surged through him. Charlie asked in a matter of fact manner, “Where are we going?” The child just pointed in a direction and they started to walk. Innocence led Charlie to a beautiful glen filled with people radiating love. As Charlie and Innocence entered their midst, they gathered round and applauded. Two of the group walked up to Charlie and somehow, he instinctively knew who they were.


“You’re Virgil and you’re Dante aren’t you? Charlie asked.


“Yes we are,” was the reply.


“What am I doing here?” asked Charlie surprised at the calmness of his voice.


Dante said, “The Lord has seen fit to answer your prayers and ease your pain. You will learn shortly that there is a special place for those who use God and his church to desecrate children. For the Lord holds children close to his heart. Woe upon the man who masquerades as a priest in order to fill his own lusty desires with children. He has a special place in hell as do all those who aid him in his crimes. Innocence has brought you to us so that we may put your mind at ease.”



“Will I learn exactly what becomes of these monsters and more importantly, to those who allow it to continue?” asked Charlie.


Dante told Charlie that it was God’s will that his question be answered and the time was near. Virgil cautioned him to hold onto Innocence’s hand for only Innocence could protect him from the horror he was about to witness. Charlie looked down at Innocence and patted the little hand that rested snugly in his own. At the same time, he felt the incredible strength that flowed from the child to him. Suddenly Charlie and his guides were in the depths of hell. Without being told, Charlie knew they were in the ninth circle. The Circle reserved for the souls who were fraudulent against those to whom they were given a special trust.


“It is here that we will find the priests who have violated children over the centuries”, said Dante.


“Why weren’t they mentioned in the Inferno?” asked Charlie.


Dante replied, “It wasn’t time. The Comedy was written to legitimize the church, not offend it”

As Charlie took in the surreal view of the ninth circle before him, he saw Satan seated in the middle on his great throne with Legion at his side. Then looking over the souls before him encapsulated in ice, he saw a great many priests immersed in the ice up to their collars.


“Is this where the abusers go?” asked Charlie.


“No,” said Virgil, “this is too good for them! Then he turned and commanded Satan, “In the name of God most high and holy I command you move aside and let us see the most prized of your souls.”


Charlie whispered to Dante, “Why are they the most prized of his souls?”

Dante replied, “Because their acts were such abominations that next to Satan himself, no single group has driven more people from God than sexually abusive clergy.


Satan boomed, “Who is it that wishes to see my pets?”


Virgil replied, “Someone who is trying to thwart their work on earth and it is heaven’s desire that he see the punishment which lies in wait for those who commit these atrocities. The Lord wishes man to know that regardless of the outcome of the earthly courts, there is one court of justice that cannot be escaped.”

With that, Satan waved his hand and the great throne he was seated on slid back revealing the tenth circle of hell. This circle was reserved exclusively for clergy who sexually abused children and those who enabled them. This level was ten times that of the largest football stadium Charlie had ever seen. It contained four concentric rings; each one was a different level reflecting varying degrees of punishment. The innermost and bottom ring radiated various shades of red. Charlie knew that the bottom ring contained the worst of them all.

On the first ring were those clergy who inflicted harm with lecherous touches. Each priest was surrounded by devils who had taken the form of every victim the priest had abused; victims who had been demeaned by the touching and fondling of the priest. These devils turned children looked pure and innocent. The kind of children molesters would drool over. Some priests were surrounded by only girls, some only by boys and still others by boys and girls. Each priest was in his own enclosure along with the replicas of his victims. It was bounded by walls, but no ceiling and the children were gathered around the priest in a circle. Some circles were very large and others were small, but in each circle, the same scenario was unfolding. As the perverted priest reached out to passionately touch and caress one of these children, his hand or hands would instantly ignite in a bright flame. Then the hands would turn to ash and the priest would let out such a sorrowful cry as not to be described.

Charlie held his hands to his ears as his eyes remained riveted on the spectacle before him. And one by one in turn, the priest went round the circle trying to touch each of his victims again and again with the same result. And after the attempted touch, the once beautiful child would return to its hideous hell form. The priest continued until all of the children that he had molested were touched and returned to their hideous hell forms. Then all the demons attacked the priest tearing him asunder and the cries from the priest and his tormentors bespoke the agony of their eternal suffering. Then the cycle repeated itself with all the demons returning to their childlike forms while the priest once again tried to molest them. It was a scene that was to play out for all eternity giving Charlie his first insight into the true essence of hell.

Next they viewed the second ring containing the priests who had penetrated children. They too were surrounded by devils in the form of the priest’s earthly victims. Again, some were surrounded by only boys, some only girls and others by both. Some priests had several victims, others had hundreds. The childlike demons were completely naked, innocent looking, and appearing with the features most craved by their abuser. Charlie stood in horror at what he saw next. The priests in this ring grabbed each child in turn looking to relieve their visibly aroused state, but they couldn’t because there were no orifices to penetrate. Try as they may from every conceivable position with each child, these feverish priests could not penetrate one child. Frustrated they moved from one to the next. As the aroused priest tried each child in turn; his frustration grew a hundred fold. He cursed, screamed, begged and pleaded for relief, but none was to be found.

When the priest reached the last child, all the children returned to their demonic forms, circled and turned on the priest. One at a time, they recited Matthew 5, “If your right eye causes you to sin then gouge it out.” Then a demon would pluck out the priest’s eye and each demon in the group in turn took a piece of that priest saving the genitals for last. When the priest was totally dismembered and the genitals were removed, the priest returned whole and the process started again and would continue for eternity.

There were some exceptions though; a certain number of these priests would leave the second ring to go down to the third ring. There they would go through a different cycle before returning to the second level. Their eternity would be spent going back and forth between two kinds of hell one worse than the other.


The third ring was horrific and at the same time heartbreaking for it contained devils in the guise of children who had committed suicide. Charlie cringed at a thought which raced to his mind, but Innocence squeezed his hand and the awful thought passed. There before each priest were the children who took their own lives because the sexual abuse suffered at the hands of that priest. These deviant priests had shattered their will to live. These were the faces of victims who could not cope with the ultimate betrayal. They were betrayed by priests from whom they sought solace. Abuse at the hands of a priest was the last straw and the final confirmation that life was hopeless. These children suffered the ultimate betrayal. They were the victims who had been sent to priests for help, be it bereavement counseling, divorce, parental alcoholism and various forms of abuse. The priests, who were supposed to help them, sexually abused them. The victims of these priests shared the common thread of ultimate betrayal, which leads to total despair.

The eyes of these victims reflected their absence of hope; they were dull and lifeless. Their movements were slow and mechanical. Each had with them the means of their own end and was seated in a row in front of their abuser. Some of the girls had razor blades or pills, some boys had ropes or guns and there were a few without anything. Charlie watched the horror; his eyes riveted on the unearthly scene as each victim gave the priest the means of his or her demise. As each victim handed the priest the means of their death, they watched the priest use it upon himself.


Charlie saw the blood flow as one priest slit his wrists and he instinctively knew the priest was experiencing the pain of the life flowing out of him while being mocked by the child turned demon again. Another priest took a rope, put his head in the noose and stepped off a stool. Charlie heard the snap as his neck broke and watched him writhe in agony as his face swelled while the ever-tightening coil slowly choked the life out of him. Charlie was startled as one boy stood up and an instant later, out of nowhere, a train smashed into the priest. Some priests had only one child in front of them while others had several and more. Those that had multiple children in front of them had to experience each death in turn by whatever means their victim had used. Then the priest was returned to the second ring.


Charlie’s attention then turned to the innermost and bottom ring. On this level were the enablers, the pastors, monsignors, vicars, bishops, cardinals and popes who allowed perverted priests to continue in their evil ways. These were the hypocrites who turned a blind eye to the rape, sodomization and molestations committed by the priests in the outer circles. They may or may not have partaken themselves, but they were responsible by their commissions and omissions, for the foul deeds of others. They were the hierarchy of the church; the men who were supposed to be emulating Jesus. This august group, who denied the existence of clerical sexual abuse, lied from the pulpit, railed against innocent victims and allowed the carnage to continue unabated. They used every trick in the book to deny, belittle or vilify victims to save their status quo. A variation of the color red emanated from each member of the hierarchy in the inner circle and it spread out encompassing all the predator priests they had enabled. Some were responsible for only a few while others could have filled a church with those they let run amok.

In the innermost ring each member of the enabling hierarchy was seated in front of a large mirror. The mirror reflected their atrocities. First they watched themselves defend the actions of pedophile priests to their victims, then to the victim’s parents, then to the parishioners and finally to themselves. Next, the prelate was forced to watch the acts of each individual predator he let loose upon unsuspecting children. One by one the prelate watched these acts in all their lurid detail. Next, the mirror showed how a predator, upon being promoted to the hierarchy, allowed even more abusers to run rampant and in turn promoted some of them. Charlie immediately realized that some of these links went on for generations: pederast in power empowering more of the same.


When the images stopped, the prelate stood at a pulpit and addressed the multitude of Satan’s legions in his defense, “But I did this to save the church! The church is more important than a few children! I was doing God’s work! I didn’t know they were serial molesters. Think of the scandal! It was consensual! You don’t understand how difficult a priest’s life is! Children of Satan were seducing my priests! Priests are only human! Think of all the money I saved the church, and think of all the good I have done with that money!”

The speech was suddenly interrupted by peals of laughter emanating from Satan himself. He said as he slapped Legions back, “This is my favorite part; I just love the good intentions speech!” Then as the speaker continued, one by one the members of Satan’s army started throwing coins at the speaker, and each coin tore a piece of the speaker’s body off. Not a large piece, but a small piece and piece by piece the speaker was flayed alive until only his tongue was left flapping in his skeleton. Then when the last coin hit the tongue, Satan burst forth from it saying, “Thank you my friends for destroying the innocence of children. You’ve planted the seeds of fear and distrust in their hearts. For with fear and distrust burned into a heart, it is almost impossible to accept the idea of a loving God.”


It was at that moment that Charlie understood the true nature of sexual abuse. He knew that the true violation was the stripping of innocence from children. By using them as objects, the abuser destroyed the fundamental building block of relationships, which is trust. Without trust, the victim can never truly love. In addition to destroying trust, the perpetrators created shame. Shame based behavior combined with the inability to trust wreaks havoc and spreads misery. Abusive priests were creating conditions that if not treated could or would last a lifetime. The defilement of a body was bad enough, but being defiled by God’s representative on earth generally closed the victim’s heart to friends, family and God.


Satan, aware of Charlie’s new found knowledge, flew at him in a rage and inflated himself until Charlie recoiled in fear at the immeasurable evil hovering above him. At that same moment, he felt strength surging from that little hand in his. The more the strength flowed from Innocence, the smaller Satan’s stature became until it disappeared. Then the whole scene faded and Charlie drifted off into a long awaited peaceful sleep.


The next morning Charlie awoke feeling well rested in spite of the vivid memory of his dream. As he slowly walked from his car to his storefront office, Charlie was shocked to see the new mannequin in the clothing store window next to his. It looked remarkably like Innocence and as he took note of it, the mannequin winked at him. Charlie winked back as a broad smile crossed his face and a new spring entered his step.

9/11 USA -- Pope John Paul II guilty of 26 years of JPIIPedophile Priests Army

St. Michael the Archangel stand over Pope John Paul II guilty of 26 years of the most heinous crime agaisnt children in the history of Christianity.

In 2006 when we first started our weblogs, we immediately posted the victims of John Paul II Pedophile Priests Army doubling that of 9⁄11 .... and then we slowly introduced Benedict XVI and the Opus Dei as cohorts-in-crime- in the most heinous crime of priest pedophilia of the 20th century. St. Michael the Archangel and Our Lady of Guadalupe requests us to persevere in our mission of truth -- to expose that John Paul II does not deserve to be called a "saint" by American children in this generation and in all generations to come. John Paul II did NOTHING to free them from priest pedophilia for the 26 years when he was pope and that is because his General of the Third Reich Cardinal Ratzinger and his media-army the Opus Dei controlled him and covered-up the priest pedophilia in order to portray a “pure and great papacy”.

This table of John Paul II with Osama ben Laden will go down in history and the Opus Dei can never erased this especially from American history no matter how much they employ their professional journalist-liars par excellence headed by John Allen of the ncr cafe.

9⁄11 is here again and it is time to remember the victims of the John Paul II Pedophile Priests Army that are double those of the 9⁄11 victims.


Victims - Attackers - Responsible Leaders

Pearl Harbor - 3,000 victims - 170 planes - Admiral Yamamoto

WTC & 9/11 attacks - 5,000 victims - 19 Muslims - Osama bin Laden

USA Priest Pedophilia - 12,000 victims - 5,448 priests - John Paul II + Benedict XVI + Opus Dei (the new Roman Catholic Trinity! the Vatican Trinity)

John Paul II Pedophile Priests' victims twice that of 9/11

It is September 11 and America remembers her 5,000 victims and the John Paul II Pedophile Priests Army's victims also commemorate their eternal pain and "living hell" instituted by the Vatican Trinity of John Paul II, Benedict XVI adn the Opus Dei...for over 26 years during the great papacy of John Paul II the Great.

This JP2M web/blog was inspired by a vision of St. Michael the Archangel in July 2002 when the late John Paul II came to America for his last WYD World Youth Day. The full vision of Paris Arrow, a pen name for personal protection from the Pope's White Mafia (Opus Dei et al) will be revealed as time goes by.

The mission of JP2M is to be in solidarity with the victims of the 26 years papacy of John Paul II -- by showing to America and the world why John Paul II must never be called a "saint" in American lips, in American soil and in every nation where his army, the JPIIPP John Paul II Pedophile Priests reigned in secrecy and cover-up under his Holy See......


Compare the CRIMES and their VICTIMS in America


Victims - Attackers - Responsible Leader

Pearl Harbor - 3,000 victims - 170 planes - Admiral Yamamoto

Excuses like "I was not aware", "the dog ate my homework", " I spoke out" are not going to cut it with Christ who has been reported by Gospel writers to have said: "Woe to whoever causes one of these little ones who believe in Me to sin, it would be better for him to have a great millstone hung around his neck and to be drowned in the depths of the sea......"

John Paul II clone Cardinal Mahony RESIGN NOW!!!

Cardinal Mahony the Clone of John Paul II must resign now! We at John Paul II Millstone called for his resignation last year ...but Catholics are only beginning to see the inherent secret elusive evil of Cardinal Mahony of Los Angeles now.

We have exposed Cardinal Mahony at lenght in this weblog http://jp2m.blogspot.com/2007_07_01_archive.html and his 1 BILLION income from oil left by a wealthy Californian which he forwards to the Vatican each year...therefore there was a total hush by theologians and not ONE asked for his resignation last year after the $660 million pay-offs to victims. That was not even his total annual revenue from Los Angeles archdiocese, his $660 million pay-off was peanuts!

John the Baptist was "small" and alone --- so is our weblog small and alone -- but we speak the truth and the truth shall set Catholics free from the Opus Dei "Fathers of lies". And Our Lady of Guadalupe wants these weblogs and protects us from Opus Dei who the enemies of children especially the victims of the John Paul II Pedophile Priests Army.

Cardinal Mahony Should Resign Today

9.5.2008


Cardinal Mahony: Your Deceit is Despicable; Resign Now

http://reform-network.net/ (Voice from the Desert blog)

Last year Los Angeles Cardinal Mahony cut a $660 million deal with survivors of clergy sexual abuse, money donated by hard-working LA Catholics. The cardinal cut the deal to ensure he would not have to take the witness stand and tell the truth about how he covered up rapes of kids by priests. As part of the deal the cardinal promised to allow the release of accused priests' confidential files. Now he's going back on his word.

The cardinal has placed his own self interest above the peace, serenity, and mental and spiritual health of survivors, above the Catholics of Los Angeles, and above the entire Roman Catholic Church.

This act of cowardice and self-interest by Cardinal Roger Mahony is unconscionable, disgraceful, and despicable.

Cardinal Mahony, shame on you.

You must resign.

Now.

Here's a statement by David Clohessy, national director of the Survivors Network of those Abused by Priests (SNAP) (SNAPnetwork.org; 314 862 7688):

Behind closed doors, Mahony, his lawyers, his public relations team, and every complicit church employee - current and former - are chortling with glee at their shrewd scheming and good fortune. Every California Catholic and citizen should be outraged.

Here's a statement by Barbara Dorris, Outreach Director of SNAP:

Once again, shrewd church officials and their expensive defense lawyers are exploiting every possible legal maneuver to keep the truth hidden about horrific child sex crimes and cover ups. Mahony knows these secret records will reveal how much he and his top staff knew about child rape and how littlehe and his top staff did to stop child rape. It's shameful that even now, he's fighting tooth and nail to keep the church hierarchy's complicity under wraps.


Here's the AP story.

By GILLIAN FLACCUS, Associated Press Writer Thu Sep 4, 4:22 PM ET

LOS ANGELES - The departure of a key figure in a record $660 million clergy sexual abuse settlement has endangered part of the deal that some plaintiffs consider more important than the money: the promise by the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Los Angeles to allow the release of accused priests' confidential files.
More than a year after the agreement was announced, the sudden recusal of a retired judge unanimously selected to review the priests' files has threatened to undo the fragile deal and could send both sides back to court for months. At the same time, an attorney who has been paid by the church to defend accused clergy is fighting to keep those records sealed - and plaintiffs accuse the archdiocese of using him as their proxy.

The developments have been gut-wrenching for alleged victims, who believe the church papers will contain evidence of criminal wrongdoing by church leaders. The Los Angeles settlement - by far the nation's largest - was supposed to close the book on the nationwide church abuse crisis that erupted in Boston in 2002.

"Many of us survivors went to litigation to produce the documents," said Esther Miller, one of more than 500 plaintiffs included in last year's agreement. "People want to move on and heal and they still have our feet to the fire. The money did nothing. It just pays for expensive therapy sessions."

The priest personnel files in question contain letters, handwritten notes and reports from doctors and psychologists - and the district attorney has said he will inspect them for evidence of crimes once they are public.

When the Diocese of Orange released tens of thousands of pages of similar files in 2005, they showed that two officials who covered up for molester priests years ago remained in top church positions. Another 800 pages that came out in Wisconsin this year showed the church knew of credible molestation reports against a priest but didn't remove him.

Recent settlements in Davenport, Iowa and Chicago also call for the release of the private documents and a similar legal battle is under way in Portland, Ore.
"The files and these documents implicate the hierarchy, right on down the line," said Jeff Anderson, a plaintiffs' attorney. "That's why we've had a long, titanic struggle for five years. There's long-kept secrets."

Under a settlement announced in July 2007, the Los Angeles archdiocese promised to release the priest personnel files to the court, which would then appoint retired state Supreme Court Justice Edward A. Panelli to review each one. Panelli, whose name was written into the settlement agreement as the mediator, would decide which documents could be released and which couldn't - and none of his rulings could be appealed.

But Panelli suddenly recused himself this summer because he received an unspecified honor from the Roman Catholic church, plaintiff attorney Ray Boucher said. Panelli declined an interview request through his assistant and archdiocese attorney Michael Hennigan said he didn't know why Panelli recused himself.
Now an archdiocese attorney says if both sides can't agree on a replacement, the fight over the files could move back to state court, where both sides could appeal any order over the release of the papers.

Hennigan said he will cooperate with a search for a new justice, but isn't sure both sides can agree on anyone but Panelli.

"That is a very special person that can gather that kind of respect from both sides," he said. "Will we be able to find somebody who fits that description, where all people have so much confidence in him that they will waive rights of appeal? I don't know."

Plaintiff attorneys expected to file an application to begin that process this week and said they would not let the church go back on its promise. Boucher, the plaintiffs' attorney, said if the church uses Panelli's recusal to dodge document release he might file a lawsuit.

Issues related to the settlement will be discussed at a hearing Friday, he said.

"You really begin to wonder whether or not the archdiocese was acting in good faith," Boucher said. "This could end up in another 10 years of litigation. Luckily the clients have been paid, but in terms of fighting this issue, I'm not going to give up."

Boucher and plaintiffs are also angry that an attorney for nearly three dozen priests is fighting to keep the files sealed - and they believe the church is paying his bills.

Attorney Donald Steier argued in court papers filed in January that his clients never agreed to a process that could expose their private records. He also argued that the court no longer has jurisdiction to order the files' release because the lawsuits have been settled.

"We have very strong feelings about trying to create an exception to the constitutional right of privacy," said Steier, who represents 31 priests. "My clients have never agreed to any release of any private files. We never agreed, and the settlement went through in any event."

Several priests declined to comment when reached by The Associated Press.

But defrocked priest George Rucker, 87, accused of molestation by 38 people but never convicted, said he worries about what will happen if his file becomes public.

"My attorney told me about that, they already have tried to do that twice," Rucker said from his room at the Nazareth House, a Catholic nursing home in Los Angeles. "I just leave it in the hands of God."

Steier declined to say who was paying him for his current work on behalf of priests and a spokesman for the archdiocese, Tod Tamberg, declined to comment.

Hennigan, the archdiocese attorney, said the church was not paying Steier now but paid the legal fees before the settlement of diocesan priests who had not been criminally convicted. He said it was possible the church could continue those payments going forward.

"We made a policy decision that that was required, based on the labor code plus the general relationship between priests and the archdiocese," Hennigan said of the earlier payments. "These are priests and they typically don't have a lot of resources."

The archdiocese spent nearly $32 million on legal fees and expenses associated with the settlement in the 2006 and 2007 fiscal years, according to its most recent financial statement.

For their part, alleged victims say the healing that began last summer has been put on hold because of the delays and legal wrangling. Miller, 49, said she has resumed taking psychological medication and goes to therapy three times a week.

"People want us to move on, they say, 'Oh, you got that money. Why can't you move on?'" she said. "But all we had was our truth."
