12. Impossible to assess Papa Ratzi's record?
"It is impossible to assess Ratzinger's record. Information on the cases is secret, and according to longstanding rules, the Congregation and its staff do not release any information about specific cases, the number of cases they have considered, or how the cases have been handled. If a priest has been defrocked or disciplined in any other way, the information becomes public only if an individual bishop decides to release it.

Last December, the Congregation reopened one particularly high-profile case, against the Rev. Marcial Maciel, the elderly founder of the Legionnaires of Christ. Maciel is accused of abusing years ago eight men who had been young priests in the Legionnaires, and some of them had tried for years to have the Congregation hear the case.

David Clohessy, national director of the Survivors Network of those Abused by Priests, criticized Ratzinger for hurting many victims with his 2002 comments, but praised him for reopening the Maciel case. "That was, in fact, action, not words. So we want to give him credit where credit is due," he said.

The process of hearing the cases is slow, and some abuse victims complain that after they were interviewed by a church investigator and their cases forwarded to the Congregation, they never heard another word.

But other victims have said they were satisfied when they learned through their local dioceses that the priest who abused them had been defrocked -- the term in the church is laicized. Only the pope can laicize a priest, church officials said. A priest can also be disciplined in other ways, like being ordered to spend the rest of his life in prayer and penance."

Just for the record: The P2 Lodge, instigated in 1958, is a pedophile masomic cult which has infiltrated public life and acted exclusively on the orders of the KGB.

In Europe this meant via the Stasi, which developed extensive criminal networks in MI5, MI6, Interpol and other European countries' security/intelligence services. Its greatest successes were in corrupting Mossad.

An excellent book on how the Vatican was infiltrated is Piers Compton's The Broken Cross.

As for Ratzi's dirty pedophile secrets, many of these are held in the security/intelligence files on the God's Banker murder case, which resumes in Rome in October.

Last week the press reported a number of arrests and charges against those accused of the Calvi murder.

But the real villains, who caused the bankruptcy of Banco Ambrosiano, the downfall of the Vatican Bank (CEO Cardinal Marcinkus, who got a immunity from prosecution from George Bush Sr) and who ordered Calvi's assasination and now in public high office.

That means Poodle and Shrub, among - inter alia - other cold-war double agents plants in European political administrations as well as in the Curia.
