Again my purpose is not claim that Christians either are pedophiles or that Christianity condones abuse. I am merely pointing out that if you wish to pursue this subject, stronger arguments, albeit illogical ones, could be made by a cowardly hater, by looking inward, towards your own religion. Perhaps, this is why you appear to be so consumed with the subject. Suit Claims Widespread Abuse By Nuns At School For Deaf POSTED: 10:01 a.m. EDT May 11, 2004 BOSTON -- A lawsuit alleges that nine former students at a former school for deaf children were raped and beaten by nuns at the now-defunct school. Attorney Mitchell Garabedian said the plaintiffs name at least 15 nuns along with a priest and the athletic instructor at the Boston School for the Deaf, which closed more than a decade ago. Garabedian said the abuse included fondling and rape. He said at least one student's head was submerged, face-first, in a toilet. He said others were locked in closets for hours as a form of punishment. The suit alleges that the abuse occurred between 1944 and 1977. The nuns named in the lawsuit are from the Congregation of the Sisters of St. Joseph of Boston. William Shaevel, an attorney for the school, said he had not yet seen the lawsuit or received details of the allegations. nbc11.com
