We all know this disgusting scandal is as a result of The Church and The State, but who do you hold mostly accountable, and should therefore pay out the most in compensation to victims?

The State
The Church
Split 50/50

Agree 100%.Do you believe the Police or the Church.It is clear that a lot of people have a lot to answer for and not just clergy

So the clergy sent him away to a place to get fixed!! Unreal, even after knowing he was raping kids they still let him at it.. this long after Symth!

I know Bishop McAreavy to be a kind, honest and devout priest.

But Paul Gilmore is right - unfortunately the Bishop is guilty of negligence.

Terrible stuff altogether. Most of us served as alter boys when we were younger and can thank our lucky stars that nothing happened to us.

I do not advocate a pardon for anyone who was guilty of omission.But I still await in Sean Brady's case the intellectual rationale for blaming Sean Brady but absolving parents even though they were both privy to exactly the same information.

No pardon is easy.

Demand justice

Demand it

Go to the parochial house. Go to the school.

Ask the incumbent to reveal the truth or step aside

I am watching.Learning nothing new.

None of it is new. Doesn't make it less shameful


The abuse is shameful

The cover up and blind eyes and facilitation is shameful. Utterly shamefull. Moral authority, such as it was SHOT

Make them answer

If the Catholic Church knew for 22 years without telling the police then the share of blame is not quite 50:50
