>> I’ve actually never seen anyone suggest that only Catholics have problems with child abuse, except Catholics using that straw man argument to deflect criticism. <<

I have. And oddly enough, I've never seen any of the other 35,000 Christian denominations attacked for "having pedophile priests", no matter how many times stories like this show up and get buried by the mainstream media.

all religions have homosexuals who like little boys, but yet again the media will ignore that the men are homosexuals if touching boys, but then again we can;t mention facts that a vast population of homosexual men cannot stop touching boys.

Instead the media portrays homosexuals as just go happy lucky gay men

How many of the other 35,000 denominations having been caught covering up the scandals and protecting the pedophiles, systematically?

That’s what people were condemning with the Catholic scandals, not a few rogue priests misbehaving on their own, but the collusion and cover-up.

Yeah, funny that. It seems as though only Catholic priests get the lion's share of criticism.

And horrible as the abuse was/is, it is NOTHING compared to the molestation by public school teachers.

The number of teachers that abuse students is many multiples of those abused by priests.

Priests go to jail. Teachers get paid leave, until their union finally cuts them loose when it becomes impossible to defend them.

But the teachers still get their pensions. That's the most important thing.

Wouldn't want a molester to have a decrease in their pension, for God's sake.
