Deliver Us From Evil

Deliver Us From Evil is a powerful documentary about a serial child rapist Catholic Priest and the lengths to which the Catholic Church took to protect him and essentially promote his continued abuse of children.

The Catholic Pope, Cardinals, Bishops, on down to the Priests are nothing more than a cabal of child rapists and child abuse enablers with their hands in bags of gold (when not in children's pants).

The voice of Tom Doyle was refreshing in the film. He was critical of the church's hierarchy, perceived infallibility, and centralized power. He crafted proposals for the Catholic church to combat child abuse and they ignored and/or fought against all attempts.

It is interesting to note that at the Vatican's request, President George W. Bush granted the pope immunity from prosecution.
