Little boy rapers have nothing to do with the Cross.

If she didn’t mean ALL priests why would she post this?-————

Probably because of the reason I gave.

You can’t tell by looking at a man if they are a homosexual molester or not.

And there’s no knowing just how widespread the problem really is.

I certainly would not expect accurate reporting out of any organization embroiled in such a mess. It’s not unlikely that the numbers are under reported by the Vatican.

And of course, not to mention the Vatican’s stellar handling of the situation.

Yup, some bad apples ruined it for everyone.

Boy rapers such as coaches and teachers and boy scout leaders and youth group leaders, the list goes on and on. They all have higher rates of abuse than priests.

Pope Francis has to make a proclamation that this is very evil and unacceptable. The communists keep showing who they are.

“How ironic. I’ve not read about vietnam in forever. I dont know how repressive they are compared to China”

It is at that. Both countries are very similar when it comes to human rights which is very repressive. It’s possible that Vietnam may be more tolerant of religion as it had a long history of catholism due to being a French colony. Concerning the international schools; both countries depend on an export economy which requires the multinationals there to build products. Which means lots of expats are necessary to provide technical and management expertise. Naturally, these expats require good schools for their kiddos. China and Vietnam are very practical in this regard. There’s several international schools in these countries, especially China being it opened to the west before Vietnam. Seems there’s roughly a three way split of curriculums; American based attended primarily by Americans, Canadians, Aussies, NZ, others. German/French schools, British which is based upon the bachelorette system. Anyway, as a practical matter expats are pretty much left alone and are not bothered. Btw, off topic but maybe interesting; the Chinese hate the French as they’re arrogant, condescending, most of all they’re cheap. Favorites are Americans, Canadians, Aussies, NZ’s.
