Pope Apologizes for Pedophilia, Rape of Nuns, Evangelizing Native People, Stealing Children - 11/22/01 Pope decries sexual abuses by clergy By Richard Boudreaux - Los Angeles Times - Rome - Pope John Paul II offered an apology Thursday for sexual abuse by Roman Catholic clergy, saying it has caused the victims "great suffering and spiritual harm" and has damaged the church. The pontiff tucked his one-paragraph "mea culpa" into a 120-page message to Catholics in Oceania on a wide range of issues raised by their bishops in 1998. Meeting at the Vatican, the bishops had condemned sexual abuse within the church and in society as a whole. this may be triggering for survivors of abuse Fezzes, Sphinxes and Secret Handshakes - By Peter Carlson - 11/25/01 "...After the Revolution, Freemasons became the quasi-official ceremonial arm of the new American government, providing colorful rituals for the laying of cornerstones for public buildings. President George Washington himself donned a Masonic apron and presided over the dedication of the United States Capitol." "In one ceremony, for instance, the initiate carried a human skull while watching a depiction of Christ's death and resurrection. Then he drank wine from the skull, symbolizing "the bitter cup of death, of which we must all, sooner or later, drink." Such gothic rituals struck many Masons as blasphemous....in 1826, William Morgan disappeared. Morgan, a disillusioned Mason in Batavia, N.Y., announced that he planned to publish the secret rituals of some of the controversial higher degrees. After that, his printer's shop was torched. Then Morgan was arrested on charges of failing to pay a $2 debt. That night, a stranger paid Morgan's bail. As Morgan walked out of jail, a group of Masons forced him into a carriage and he disappeared, screaming, "Murder! Murder!" He was never seen again, dead or alive. excerpt from http://www.washingtonpost.com/ac2/wp-dyn/A61372-2001Nov20?language=printer Ualbany Suspends Implants Research - Albany - Professor whose work is at issue has focussed on surgically inserted mind control devices.

The province's top court ruled the cases could not proceed because the alleged abuse occurred more than three decades ago." <A HREF="http://www.ctrl.org/";>www.ctrl.org</A> DECLARATION & DISCLAIMER ========== CTRL is a discussion & informational exchange list.
