#thytoo ?
I am a 58 year old man. I grew up Protestant, but played basketball behind the church at the end of my street.
One friend was abused by the parish priest and wound up dead by a river. He was 12.
In high school I knew another kid on the football team had been molested by a priest. Same city, different priest.
In my thirties, I found out a direct report had been raped by a priest when he was 13.
Now, think about the odds of a person living in a city of less than 350,000 people knowing three people, personally, in three different circles, raped by three different priests, in three different decades.
That type of thing only happens if it is happening A LOT.
I don’t blame Jesus for this behavior. I DO blame the Catholic Church for making this disgusting stuff possible.
