Friday, June 2, 2006 at 5:00 PM Edited Friday, June 2, 2006 at 5:00 PM http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez/query.fcgi?CMD=search&DB=pubmed This article explores the effects of child sexual abuse by priests and other perpetrators on victims' trust in the Catholic Church, priesthood, and in their relationship to God. Adult Catholics (1,810) in the United States and Canada were separated into three groups: those who reported no childhood sexual abuse (N = 1,376), those who had been sexually abused as children but not by a priest (N = 307), and those who had been sexually abused by priests (N = 40). Analyses of variances compared the level of trust in priesthood, Church, and God of these three groups and found a significant decline from those "not abused" to those "abused by a priest." There was a slight decline in trust for those "abused but not by a priest," however, the results were statistically inconclusive. The 347 victims were then separated into two groups based upon their having received psychotherapy. The "treatment" group (N = 152) reported significantly less trust in the priesthood, Church, and in their relationship to God than the "no treatment" group (N = 194). This study highlighted the possible spiritual damage caused by child sexual abuse, particularly if the perpetrator was a religious leader, and supported the need to assess the religious impact of the victim's abuse and to include a process of spiritual healing. I think the lesson here is obvious: therapy will pull your children into the gaping maw of Hell. —Dark Laith |

Friday, June 2, 2006 at 7:07 PM ever notice how you hear about molesting priests every few weeks but hardly ever hear of any molesting counselors, psychiatrists or therapists? —plurryho |

Friday, June 2, 2006 at 7:19 PM Laith, you have to start using CiteULike. That actually doesn't look too bad - kinda like del.icio.us for references + you can export stuff to bibtex (which I like) or EndNote (which I have to use because my boss doesn't like LaTeX). —anobody |

Friday, June 2, 2006 at 7:22 PM ever notice how you hear about molesting priests every few weeks but hardly ever hear of any molesting counselors, psychiatrists or therapists? Are you suggesting that it doesn't happen or that it's just not brought to the public's attention as much? —catloaf |

Friday, June 2, 2006 at 7:33 PM mandee, you can't molest the willing. catloaf, i think that it's rare. solar eclipse rare. my point is something carolla said once. i can't quote verbatim, but he more or less stated that knowing the biological drive of the male, isn't deciding to become the kind of priest who can't marry or have g/f's just a tad unsettling when you really think about it? how many of those guys are just these wonderful, self sacrificing people? —plurryho |

Friday, June 2, 2006 at 7:34 PM I'm pretty sure he's gay, but he's just so gorgeous. And I have a thing for dark glasses and on my first session, he wore dark glasses and I was like, "Excuse me, can I masturbate right now?" But, it's actually funny because in his confidentiality/policy contract, it says something like "Although discussions may be intimate at times, this is just a professional relationship." I bet he has to include that because women hit on him all the time. —mandeemoo22 |

Friday, June 2, 2006 at 11:08 PM I'm pretty sure he's gay Next time you visit him, look at his hands, see if they are manicured. The collar of his shirt is a dead giveaway, and the tie is bulky, that's a sign to other gay guys that he has a huge cock. —greymatters |

Monday, June 5, 2006 at 7:06 PM Oddly have never used it (except when I was first playing with xsl:fo). I just wish I didn't have to use Word / EndNote (I'm going to kill myself because of the damn built-in equation editor). —anobody |
