I'm not aware of any. But then there's always the possibility that some of Icke's lizard people have infiltrated the Vatican.Who are the members of the churches population who are not human Lester?

and that has what to do with any of the Church here in Canada or any where in the world besides the u.s.a.? Or do we have another ignorant and arrogant american that thinks their laws should apply to any and all?
Ah, Gerryh, charming as always.
For one thing, where's the Pope in the Bible?
Secondly, if you take the assention of Jesus literally (i.e. that he physically actually rose to the skies like a rocket), then can that would mean that identifying heaven woudl be a question for NASA, not theologians. so, is heaven within you, or at a particular cosmic coordinate?
True enough. Innocent priests must make a decision.
It is grounds for action in the States.and that has what to do with any of the Church here in Canada or any where in the world besides the u.s.a.? Or do we have another ignorant and arrogant american that thinks their laws should apply to any and all?

The Church has always been at work resolving that er ah issue. God bless them, the task is beyond earthly hands apparently.
It goes well beyond that. Every single individual in a position of authority in the heirarchy engaged in every conceivable theological, legal, and social trick, including coercing the parents of abused children, to cover for abusive priests. That's accessory. And it was all of them, and that's RICO.

What it means is that is can be used. It is an effective tool for use against criminal behavior. Used against the Mafia, Wall Street and a number of others.
And it can be used in prosecuting Priests and higher level Officials of the Church.
And the penalties are severe.
As to the Ignorant American- I would say no. Well educated, literate and makes a clear point.
It also means that those indicted unless having Diplomatic Immunity are subject to arrest when in the US.
From what I know of US Law all it takes is a Grand Jury to indict under a Criminal Conspiracy under RICO. Federal laws are followed.
I'll say it again, RICO has absolutely NOTHING to do with the majority of the population. It ONLY applies to the u.s.a., and the u.s.a. is NOT the be all and end all of this planet.
Gerry that is not this thread.I'm also curious as to how a thread about what the Vatican is doing to clean up their bank got side tracked to the "old" problem of sexual misconduct by a very small percentage of the Catholic Clergy.
Gerry that is not this thread.
I believe in my heart and soul that Pope Francis will make change. It will not happen overnight,but it will happen.
You're right, sorry. How did a thread on IVF get turned?
No it's not.It is grounds for action in the States.

There isn't one single example of any organized society or community that doesn't have it's own dirty laundry... Did it ever dawn on you to look in your own back yard for skeletons?
What am I saying, that degree of objectivity is reserved exclusively for others
Fact is; the RCC and Vatican is among the oldest surviving organizations in the world today, and there is a reason for it that extends far beyond all of the conspiracies forwarded by the tin foil hat society.
Great comment as it applies equally to any and every facet of every culture on the planet.
What do you believe that reason is?
It is puzzling to me how in the age of conspiracy you would continue to annul their validity except we consider the thickness of your own personal foil headdress which of course you are willfully unaware of.
You might consider, if you were as objective as you believe yourself to be,that you have employed the tin hat far more than I. I have bones in the yard but my yard is certainly dwarfed by the Churches. You are comparing apples and continents. Thank you for the intercourse.
