Summary: Remarkable Book
Comment: I have had first hand experience with priest sexual misconduct, so I have read much of the literature and have followed the present crisis closely. This is the best thing I have read. The best written and researched. Every Catholic should read this book about the present state of the priesthood. I know what he is saying is true, and I also know from my experience, but it still astounds me.

Summary: A Book Every Parent Should Read Regardless of Religious View
Comment: I found this book insightful, easy to read and to follow. The subject of this book, I feel, is not just a Catholic Church problem but it is also a society problem. Every child that has been abused by a priest, teacher, doctor or parent is spiritually and emotionally wounded. Unfortunitely without treatment the abuse will affect every aspect of their life in one way or another. What is so totally mind blowing is the fact that a Church who's only reason for existence is to teach about Jesus and his message of right and wrong, has chosen to, instead, protect the business side of the church and left thousands of children to blow in the wind by protecting the crimes of their representatives, the priests who abuse. And by doing so has allowed even more children to be abused over and over. I would highly recommend any adult to read this book and realize that a child does not lie about abuse to get attention and a lot of the time can not bring themselves to talk about their abuse for many years and sometime that means even into late adulthood. And even though the church says it's just about receiving money it is more about justice and protecting the innocents of all children present and future. An excellent well balanced book that you can't put down no matter how disurbing you fine the subject.

Summary: A Must Read...
Comment: Jason Berry is to be commended for his courage, reporting and investigative skills in bringing this tale to the public. As a fellow Catholic I know it must have been a painful experience. It is truely a "must read" and I would just like to say "Thank you" to Mr. Berry.
