the 15

Coffee with Ron Baines last week.
He works with people in extreme circumstances.
He said: "I'm dealing with a family at the moment and there are fifteen children. And all of the children have been abused by the father."
I said: "What are you going to do?"
He said: "Well, the father is in jail at the moment on an unrelated charge. But the children are terrified he's going to be released."
I said: "I mean are you going to go to the police?"
He said: "I can't do that James. These people have confided in me. They trust me."
There was a moment's silence.
"Do you see the irony here?" I said finally.
"What irony?" he countered.
I said: "You are not actually anti Catholic but you are one of the people who have said to me at various times that you thought the Church had concealed sex abuse cases. Do you realise that if you now ever became important enough for Independent Newspapers, the Irish Times, RTE, Judge Yvonne Murphy or any of the other atheistic scoundrels currently manipulating the truth about sex abuse as part of their culture war against the Catholic Faith, if you became important enough for any or all of them to want to destroy you, say if you were a respected campaigner against abortion or if you were a Catholic priest or a Bishop, and if they ever gained access to information about your handling of this present situation, why then you yourself could be humiliated, vilified, and destroyed at a moment's notice by the same Independent Newspapers, Irish Times, RTE, Judge Yvonne Murphy or any other admixture of Bolshevicks creeping around the margins of our society, leeching off parliament, and governing us from the shadows. This is the nature of tyranny. The terror is arbitrary. By and large they only target Catholic Bishops and priests because Catholic Bishops and priests are the only ones who might give the public a moral vocabulary to reject the dictatorshop of evil that is taking shape before our eyes. Using the terms of reference they have devised to vilify Bishops, in truth, they could destroy anyone."
