Sigh. Another Day, Another Country, Another Catholic Church Pedophilia Ring Exposed.

The lede:

Behind an aggressive investigation of the Roman Catholic hierarchy in Belgium that drew condemnation from the pope himself lies a stark family tragedy: the molestation, for years, of a youth by his uncle, the bishop of Bruges; the prelate’s abrupt resignation when a friend of the nephew finally threatened to make the abuse public; and now the grass-roots fury of almost 500 people complaining of abuse by priests.

And yes, I use the term ring advisedly. Read the rest of the article to learn about the by-now-all-too-familiar cover-up attempts, the general refusal to listen to the molested children, the silencing of the rare priest who did try to do something by the higher-ups in the church, etc.

Won't mean much coming from an atheist, but goddamn them all, anyway.
