1. Id like to know how any of this pertains to the belief system of the Catholic Church. This is an organization that believes in the benefits and holiness of natural healing and yet this organization has abused human touch in just about every way conceivable. Their way of rectifying what is wrong is by holding onto million dollar artwork and using people to compensate with money. What would Jesus do? You cant correct what is wrong from the roots, it just keeps growing worse. Get rid of those graven images and start giving people what they deserve, value

2. BONEY-MARONI There was a Cardinal named Baloney Or was it Cardinal Macaroni? He built a church out west, brand new. A church for me, a church of you. Where people drive their pristine cars, Emission pure, no ozone mars. A church for many kinds of sexes Even witches casting hexes. There was a Cardinal named Marconi Or was it Cardinal Boney-Maroni? He built a church, ten million three. For gender-benders by the sea. For all to sit, not kneel, awhile, And share your peace with ped-o-phile. An all new church, on L.A. sod, For me and you...thank God, not God!

3. Well this is not so true what you are saying aobut the selling of High Schools. Daniel Murphy will be closed. The Students are finding out NOW that they have been lied too. School have accepted some but not all. Students are now having to travel even further to attend Schools with about a 30% increase in Tuition. It has been rumored that a Construction Team has visited the Daniel Murphy site recently, and has stated that they were taking Mesurements for a site that will start a building process in 18 Months from the school closure, to build "Condo's". Don't believe what you here from Tom Tamberg, the Archdiocese Spoke person.

4. Why doesn't the Cardinal start with his own home (The Cathedral). How dare he use our SCHOOLS as collateral. Shame on him.

5. Now that Pope Benedict XVI is back in the Vatican, what remains to be seen is whether or not the bishops of the United States take to heart what he has said in regard to the continuing clergy sexual abuse scandal in the church. One suggestion I would make would be that the bishops follow the pope's injunctions and stop opposing bills in state legislatures that are aimed at protecting all children and support "Window Legislation" of at least a year or two that would allow all those sexually abuse by anyone when they were children, to seek redress in civil court. This is a Right to Life Issue .

6. Much like what was said in the article, it truly angers me that the leaders of my church would not and did not take ownership for their incredibly bad and down right horrible inactions. This scandal is a sad statement on the same people who implore us, the members, to do the right thing, be honest, and take responsibility when it is ours to bear. This situation does not shake my faith in Jesus or God, but it does prove man’s fallibility and that organized religion, no matter what faith, is a construct of man and is hopelessly flawed.

7. What a crock of crap. Asking the families of those that were raped by the priest to pay for the privilege of being raped. Not me. WhenI see the priest behind bars I'll think about it.
