I don’t expect you to do it in every single post but your post 4 was nothing more than the usual, *It’s worse other places* type of dodging the issue post.

And I have stated on a thread recently that any involved in the abuse or cover up should publicly confess what they did, turn themselves over to the proper authorities to pay for their crime, and defrock themselves or be defrocked.

It would show genuine repentance to man up and admit what they did was wrong and take the consequences.

And besides, I have condemned it and for that I’ve been slapped with the label of *hater*.

I’m a *Catholic hater* cause I condemn the sexual abuse of minors by priests?

Shows a lot about Catholic mentality.

It would show genuine respect for justice to severely punish everyone who was guilty of abusing the innocent.

I have no patience for abusive priests, but I only have a little more patience for abusers of any type. Priests are by no means the only ones who abuse people, and those from outside who pile on priests and ignore their own problems should mind their knitting.

If your denomination has no problems of this sort, it is likely very small. If it does have problems, be sure to post them on Freepdom, with appropriate caucus settings.
