The entire Catholic Church needs to be investigated

Right now the Vatican and its head leader is playing hard-ball.

* He won't answer any questions or requests put to him.
* He won't recognise any impartial inquiries - even if they are set-up by a government.
* He won't supply any information that they consider to put them in bad light beyond a country's individual border.
* He won't let the Vatican be exposed to financial litigation. As soon as someone attempts to hold them responsible - America, Italy, Ireland and other countries other basic local parishes are as far as financial liability is allowed. If Rome thinks it can be held accountable for any of the damage done by direct action, in-direct action, complacent after the act, etc, the orders go out from Rome that local parishes are to declare themselves bankrupt (6+ in the USA alone) or state that they will only accept limited liability.
* The list goes on...

The Church of Rome has CENTURIES of practise in the art of keeping secrets and practising lies, looking after their own (here at home where they smuggle priests in and out after they have "sinned", Monsenior Donnelly and co, abroad in the states and Europe: Paul Casimir Marcinkus, etc) looking after their institutions and limiting their liability (Look into "Banco Ambrosiano", Roberto Calvi, The Vatican Bank, P2 masonic lodge, etc and those are just a few off the head examples).

Anyone deeply interested in this subject and see the extent of their power I suggest the reading of a international famous book by Davis Yallop, called "In Gods Name".
Its a shocking read and incitement of the way things are done, the antics of Rome in keeping secrets even from World War 2 onwards never mind the previous centuries. It indicates just how far they are willing to go in order to see that "the victor gets to write history" and to ensure that they are always the victorious and righteous ones in the end.

The church of Rome is for me a basket case of sins piles upon sins - and with todays greater abilities to communicate better with one another (through technology alone), the further ability of exposing some truths by same, the Vatican has still not learned its lesson and continues to play hard-ball.

In essence, the equivalent of sticking its two fingers up to the people of this world that are looking for answers and justice.
