He said the "incomprehensible behaviour" of some clergy in Ferns had "devastated human lives and profoundly betrayed the trust of children, young people, their families, parish communities and the entire diocesan family"." “The 271-page report of the Ferns inquiry, chaired by retired Supreme Court judge Frank Murphy, was published a year ago. It identified more than 100 allegations of child sexual abuse made between 1962 and 2002 against 26 priests operating under the aegis of the diocese.” http://www.ireland.com/newspaper/front/2006/1027/1161840035757.html   fwd from L Moss Sharman Trial highlights Canadian cult link - More than 70 Solar Temple members died in ritual murders and suicide blazes 10/25/06 - Sean Gordon Quebec Bureau Chief - Montreal "The chilling ritual known within the Order of the Solar Temple as "transit to Sirius" — a distant star where members of the doomsday cult believed they would live eternally once their souls were cleansed by flames — was first practised in the Laurentian hills north of Montreal." http://www.thestar.com/NASApp/cs/ContentServer?pagename=thestar/Layout/Article_PrintFriendly&c=Article&cid=1161726632690&call_pageid=968332188492   http://www.realcities.com/mld/krwashington/15847918.htm Cheney confirms that detainees were subjected to water-boarding By Jonathan S.
