Vatican 'indignant' over Belgium police raids
RAID them all!

http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/world/europe/10417102.stm

The Vatican has expressed shock at raids, including the "violation" of a cathedral crypt, by Belgian police investigating alleged child sex abuse.

As well as searching a couple of main Church offices and a cardinal's home, police had drilled holes in two archbishops' tombs, said the Church.

Prosecutors said the raids were over alleged "abuse of minors committed by a certain number of Church figures".

1. If they don't like being raided, maybe they should stop molesting children.

2. Good....
They've got a lot of nerve talking about being "violated". They've been letting innocent children across the world be violated for decades.

3. Well, it's rather hard to work up sympathy..........
The Church has been a political entity since its inception, and has been abusing women and children for at least that long.

Archaic and abusive institution.
