Bishop, 73, in Belgium Steps Down Over Abuse

ROME — The longest-serving bishop in Belgium resigned Friday after admitting to sexually abusing “a boy in my close entourage” many years ago, becoming the latest cleric to quit in a spreading abuse scandal.

The development added to a corrosive catalog of disclosures that has damaged the credibility of the Roman Catholic Church and shaken the trust of many believers in their spiritual leaders.

In a statement issued by the Vatican on Friday, Roger Vangheluwe, 73, the bishop of Bruges since 1985, said that the abuse had occurred “when I was still a simple priest and for a while when I began as a bishop.”

So now it's papist bishops, not merely priests, who rape boys. "Damaged the credibility" and "shaken the trust" are understatements. We need to reach out to rank-and-file Catholics to let them know that there is nothing at all of God in their "church" and that they need to reject the outmoded superstitions that were developed to keep them in mental bondage.

I always thought the papists took this line in The Lord's Prayer much too seriously and obviously literally...

"Thy Rod and thy staff, they comfort me"
