A law against religion. How very communistic of you.
how about a law judgment against your religion? :
LOUISVILLE, Ky. - Three men who claim childhood sexual abuse by priests can pursue damages from the Vatican in a negligence lawsuit, a federal judge ruled Thursday.
The ruling by U.S. District Judge John G. Heyburn II lets the men pursue their claim that top church officials should have warned the public or local authorities of known or suspected sexual abuse of children by priests in the Archdiocese of Louisville.
William McMurry, the plaintiffs attorney, said the ruling could open the way to take depositions of Vatican officials and to get copies of church records and documents.
Our whole purpose is to hold the Vatican accountable, McMurry said.
