I see that in 2010 seven cases of credible predatory sexual battery by catholic priests is an acceptable amount for you.....easily dismissed with a wave of your hand......for the better good and all of that, right?
Of course, it's much much worse if it's seven cases out of the couple million Lutherans or Baptists......right?
Saying there were only seven cases in 2010 so "nothing to see here, move along" is like saying there's only a handful of domestic battery cases in a small town. The reality is that there are many many more, they just never get reported.
The corruption runs far and deep in the catholic system just like it does in our government.
Be dismissive all you want of the seriousness of such things because I took my blinders off a long time ago. I understand that 1 in 65 million would be too many. But I'm crazy like that.

Wow, notice the date of the message. It is a homosexual scandal not pedophile. Homosexuals have many perversions. The scandal doesn’t make every priest a predator or homosexual. Thanks for the numbers Salvation.
Who knows the means by which the greatest graces from God are received? He believes...Satan.

Should we discuss the approval of sodomy by both Presidential candidates? Absolutely blinded...crazy times.

To Mother Marianna

January 21, 1610

“The Sacrament of Holy Orders will be ridiculed, oppressed, and despised… The Devil will try to persecute the ministers of the Lord in every possible way; he will labor with cruel and subtle astuteness to deviate them from the spirit of their vocation and will corrupt many of them. These depraved priests, who will scandalize the Christian people, will make the hatred of bad Catholics and the enemies of the Roman Catholic and Apostolic Church fall upon ALL priests”…
