PAPAL VISIT :: Your opinion

Victims, survivors and the families of Clergy, Spiritual and Sexual Abuse come from all walks of religion across all areas of the country.   To the best of our knowledge there is an increasing number of strongly dissatisfied victims and victim families together with an increasing number of dissatisfied or disaffected groups in many religions attempting to address the issues of Clergy, Spiritual and Sexual Abuse.   The highest perpetrator rate belongs to the Catholic Church in Australia by a factor many times greater than the next greatest offender group belonging to the Anglican Church.    Disaffected individuals and groups are found across all walks of Australian life with its effects reaching out and affecting many across the broader community.   When it is understood that many parishioners within religious organisations plead on a daily basis with their superiors to bring about an end to the discrimination and the very high risk of retraumatising more victims and their families or drive others to suicide  Shows that these entities are unable to self regulate.   10 years on the ACSJC [website] have provided no statistics, papers or other material in regards the treatment, support and compensation of Clergy, Spiritual and Sexual Abuse abuse victims of the Catholic Church.   Many of the Churchs' own organisations appear to be frustrated and embarrassed by the services and support provided and are specifically denied the ability to act on behalf of Clergy, Spiritual and Sexual Abuse abuse victims.   Professional opinion abound stating that current procedures are often more damaging than curative and ask that the Church acts differently.   Counsellors, therapists, psychiatrist and health workers say do it differently and do it better.   Police and legal entities say do it differently, the Church should be the body supporting the removal of the statute of limitations.   Parishioners say do it differently. A growing number of disaffected people across the country.   Victims and their families say do it differently.   This all falls on deaf ears and so it properly should be an issue that only our government can address. With the visit of the Pope in July of this year it is appropriate to direct our attention and focus towards the Catholic Church in an endeavour to have the interest of so many Australians protected at a governmental level.   Click to add your Question The issue of assistance, support and compensation for Clergy, spiritual and sexual abuse committed by 5% to 10% of Catholic priests on hundreds of innocent children over more than half a decade.
