Synopsis of New Book Soul Murder God Priest and Me by Sara Atman
Soul Murder: God, Priest and Me is a true and compelling account of clergy sex abuse of an adult. It describes the denial and cover-up over four decades by the Catholic Church and others. Through sheer determination the victim was instrumental in finally bringing about the priest’s expulsion - he was 80! Clergy sex abuse is more than an abuse of trust; it is more than a crime. It is SOUL MURDER – physical, psychological and spiritual trauma. Soul murder is a betrayal by God and by clergy - God’s representative. This abuse challenges faith and forces victims to ask: does a God of love really exist? The victim’s struggles with this profound betrayal weave through the story in the form of ‘God Conversations’ that take her on a roller-coaster journey towards healing. The genuine quest for answers and the need to apportion blame are expressed in a powerful way – ironically, hopefully, despairingly and tongue-in cheek. The book also addresses the issue of enforced celibacy and its consequences: repression, emotional immaturity etc.
