If I had not had direct personal experience with believers, and did not know how sick and twisted they can be, I would take this for a joke.

Oh wow . So f sad .

I am impressed by the stupidity.

Does this mean the abusers have a "day of fasting" so they cannot abuse on that day? What is it about?

A day of fasting? Let's make it a month!

And as to the U.S. and its ridiculous Statute of Limitations, I suggest, most earnestly that the whole thing scrapped and shoved firmly where the sun never shines.

So the fat, bloated, over-fed and over-indulged Catholic Kiddie Fiddlers are going to Pray and Fast for the ones they may have victimised over last decades and more.
And, IF your a Catholic Kiddie Fiddler then FASTING means you can have one, probably MASSIVE Nosh-up followed by 2 smaller snacks BUT no meat, yeah right.
We know how well those scamming Scum can twist and turn things around to suit themselves, for example, when I was studying for my Doctorate in Theology the definition of FASTING was to go from Sunrise to Sunset eating absolutely NOTHING and drinking ONLY 100mls of water every 3 hours.
PLUS, by Catholic Law and Canon MEAT is defined as being "ANYTHING that comes from bearing fur or wool and its flesh is red or pink when uncooked," ergo Chicken, Fish, Fowls such as Duck, Goose, etc, etc, are NOT considered to MEAT so these Fat, Bloated , Indolent, over-fed and over-indulged Molesters of the Innocent and Predators of Weak and Feeble minded will more than like be FEASTING upon everything and anything EXCEPT RED MEAT.

Bullshit

Give me that old time sense of privilege/that feel good sense of forgiveness/so I can feel mighty and rule over you again.

You mean healing for the offenders. The statue of limitations may have passed but the offenders are still there and they will not be forgotten by the laity. Also, the statue has passed for civil offenses but people should be watching to see how the hierarchy handles this. And they wonder why the 'nones' are increasing and the church membership is falling.
