This lengthy text, "Lucifer's Lodge - Satanic Ritual Abuse in the Catholic Church" by William H. Kennedy, explores the disturbing history of Satanic Ritual Abuse (SRA), particularly within the Catholic Church, while also critiquing the phenomenon of the "Satanic Panic" of the 1980s. The author argues that while the mainstream media sensationalized and often falsely accused innocent individuals of SRA, a deeper, more insidious form of ritual abuse, potentially with satanic elements, has been covertly practiced within the Catholic Church for centuries, often by high-ranking clergy. Kennedy meticulously details numerous cases of alleged ritual abuse by Catholic priests, including prominent figures like Father Paul Shanley and Father Bernard Lane, connecting their actions to historical heretical sex cults and occult practices, such as those linked to the Process Church of the Final Judgment, and even the historical actions of popes and the early Church. The book posits that the Church hierarchy actively covered up these abuses, creating an "underground sewer" of depravity, and suggests that the 1980s Satanic Panic may have served as a diversion from the genuine, institutionalized issues within the Church itself.
