You wouldnt know it by the media reports, but statistically sexual abuse was no more prevalent in the Catholic church than any other institution. Today it is less prevalent. It is true that priests didnt know what to do about the accusations and were guilty of presuming innocent. The same thing occurs in most cases of sexual abuse. There were plenty of accusations and witnesses of abuse at Penn State for example. The media doesnt seem to have a need to create a witch hunt for those people, and endlessly recycle the news stories with front page news 10 years later.
The media attacks, slanders, and defames the church the same way they do to other conservatives, and any one else who gets in the way of the culture of death. The fact that scandals are not made about abuses in other temples, churches, mosques, schools etc doesnt mean abuses are less prevalent, they are simply less relevant in this battle. If the world knew how much He loves us, it would be a better place.
May God bless you and yours.
