  • POPE Benedict XVI's Resignation Has Sparked Calls For
    [POPE Benedict XVI's resignation has sparked calls for his successor to come from Africa, home to the world's fastest-growing population and the front line of key issues facing the Roman Catholic Church. Around 15 per cent of the world's 1. 2 billion Catholics live in Africa and the per centage has expanded significantly in recent years in comparison to other parts of the world. Much of the Catholic Church's recent growth has come in the developing world, with the most rapid expansions in Africa and Southeast Asia. Names such as Ghana's Peter Turkson and Nigerian John Onaiyekan have been mentioned as potential papal material, as has Francis Arinze, also from Nigeria and considered a possibility when Benedict was elected, but who is now 80. ] BURUNDI : RWANDA : Protests in Rwanda Over Genocide Acquittals February 11, 2013 /(AP)/abcnews. go. com KIGALI, Rwanda Hundreds of Rwandans on Monday marched to the offices of the United Nations tribunal set up to try key cases related to Rwanda's 1994 genocide to protest the court's decision to acquit two former cabinet ministers accused of masterminding killings. The protesters, bearing placards denouncing the Arusha, Tanzania-based International Criminal Tribunal of Rwanda (ICTR), mainly constituted of survivors of the genocide, youths and students who accused the tribunal of denying justice to genocide victims. "The international community failed in their response to protect the Tutsi from being killed and now it is failing to provide justice to survivors," one of the banners read. More than 500,000 ethnic Tutsis and moderate Hutus were killed during Rwanda's 1994 genocide.

  • Vítimas De Pedofilia Na Igreja Divulgam Lista Negra De Papáveis Sociologia Enviado Por: [email protected] Postado Em:07/03/2013
    Disciplina - Sociologia - Vítimas de pedofilia na Igreja divulgam lista negra de papáveis Sociologia Enviado por: [email protected] Postado em:07/03/2013 Uma associação americana de vítimas de abusos sexuais por padres pedófilos publicou, nesta quarta-feira, uma lista negra de doze possíveis candidatos a Papa e exortou à Igreja Católica a levar a sério a proteção das crianças, a ajuda às vítimas e as denúncias de corrupção. "Queremos dizer aos prelados católicos que deixem de fingir que o pior já passou" sobre o escândalo de pedofilia dentro da Igreja, declarou David Clohessy, diretor da Rede de Sobreviventes de Abusados por Padres (Snap, na sigla em inglês). "Tragicamente, o pior com certeza ainda estar por vir", indicou Clohessy, ao acrescentar que a verdade dos abusos e encobrimentos "generalizados há muito tempo e profundamente arraigados ainda não chegou à superfície na maioria das nações". A organização citou uma dúzia de cardeais da Argentina, Austrália, Canadá, Estados Unidos, Gana, Honduras, Itália, México e República Tcheca acusados de proteger os padres pedófilos ou por realizar declarações defendendo os padres ou minimizando a situação. Todos eles são considerados candidatos a sucessão do Papa Bento XVI, muito criticado pela forma como conduziu os escândalos. A Snap também se opõe à eleição de qualquer membro da Cúria romana, a administração da Santa Sé. "Acreditamos que ninguém de dentro do Vaticano tem verdadeira vontade de 'limpar a casa' no Vaticano ou em outras partes", indicou Clohessy em um comunicado. "Promover um membro da Cúria desencorajaria as vítimas, as testemunhas, os denunciantes e seus defensores a relatar más condutas", ressaltou.

  • Clerical Pedophilia by Mexicans in Mexico and Other Countries 1944-2013
    Clerical Pedophilia by Mexicans in Mexico and Other Countries 1944-2013 Report by CSOs and Mexican Nationals to the Committee on the Rights of the Child _______________________________________________ December 2013 Executive Summary Importance of the Shadow Report for the Committee on the Rights of the Child. We regard the Holy See’s appearance before the Committee on the Rights of the Child as an historic opportunity to ensure that organizations such as those in the Holy See -State - Vatican - Catholic Church - which claim their superiority and privileges over local and even international authorities and do not accept any kind of formal responsibility, as a signatory state of the Convention and the subsequent Treaties, should be addressed as being responsible for thousands of cases of sexual abuse committed in many parts of the world, for many years, due precisely to their structural behavior of protection and the complicit cover-up of abusers. They should therefore be held accountable for the violation of articles in the Convention because of their contempt and systematic violation of the rights and higher interest of girls and their preference for covering-up perpetrators rather than protecting and safeguarding victims. This institutional behavior which involved all the levels of authority of the Organization, should be regarded as a STATE CRIME by the Committee on the Rights of the Child. This will help, first and foremost, to restore the dignity and fundamental rights to victims and even enable the organization represented by the Holy See and its authorities, national authorities and all of humanity, to ensure that this type of behavior will never again be repeated in our history, by arguing and claiming to have a superior divine origin to the authorities tasked with safeguarding the rights of the world’s children.

Abusive clergy were quietly moved from parish to parish, school to school, diocese to diocese, and sometimes overseas. Others were secretly sacked. Criminal activity was not reported to the police and parents were kept in the dark.
