Divine Penetration

Over the space of seventy years, the Catholic Church in one single country permitted, enabled, tolerated and connived at the sexual abuse of a minimum of three hundred and thirty thousand children; which means that the only institution more rapey than the eunuchs of the Virgin Mary is the hard-working family and its trusties. Fortunately for the spiritual health of those concerned, the Church of Rome has been charitable enough to interpret its little indiscretions as an opportunity for the victims to forgive their brothers, and thereby allow the Church of Rome to go on about its business for another seventy times seven years. After all, it was the god of Jesus, the god of Jacob, the god of Abraham, the god of Moses; the god without Whom there can be no law and no morality, who sat back smiling on His throne and allowed it all to happen.
