New book examines clergy sexual abuse - in the wide lens of history [[link removed]]
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Thomas P. Doyle, a canon lawyer and inactive priest, has long been an expert for
lawyers representing victims of clergy sex abuse. In an essay for NCR, he outlines
the recent history of the clergy sexual abuse crisis, starting in 1984 when revelations
of multiple cases of sexual abuse of male children and young adolescent boys surfaced
about Thomas Adamson in of the Archdiocese of St. Paul-Minneapolis, Minnesota, and
Gilbert Gauthe from the Diocese of Lafayette, Louisiana.
Over the next three decades, he writes, hundreds of books and scholarly articles
have appeared contributing to the search for "what this phenomenon is all about."
But, only a small part of the crisis has been exposed, and the search for answers
may come in extensive research by Dyan Elliott, a medieval scholar from Northwestern
University. The results of her research are in a new book, The Corrupter of Boys,
which Doyle says is "nothing short of remarkable, stunning and most importantly,
authentic."
"I will readily admit to having been obsessed with discovering and exposing every
historic layer of the key elements of the systemic causes of the sexual abuse phenomenon,"
Doyle writes. "This requires plumbing the church's legitimate and unrevised history
to its depths. Elliott has done this, and her work changes the conversation in dramatic
and invaluable way."

Documentary 'Pray' recounts life of rosary crusader Fr. Patrick Peyton [[link removed]]
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

A new documentary, "Pray: The Story of Patrick Peyton," recounts the life of the
Holy Cross priest and his commitment to prayer, the rosary and Our Lady. His mission
was to preach the importance of family prayer to the world and invite notable Hollywood
celebrities to assist him, first via radio and billboards, then through film and
television.
As Peyton says in the film, "I'm for God, for peace, justice, mercy, truth, love.
I'm for stronger homes and loftier lives, and the better use of time. But first
of all, I am for prayer, family prayer, because the family that prays together,
stays together."
Pauline Sr. Rose Pacatte interviews Holy Cross Fr. David Guffey, current national
director of Family Theater Productions, which produced the film, about how both
the production company and Holy Cross Family Ministries want to show that prayer
and the rosary are still vitally important to Catholics in the U.S. and around
the world.
"The hope is that the film will model family prayer, and if parents have any inclination
at all, to try it, even if it's awkward at first," Guffey said.
