Since I have NO authority that counts, what I call charges is immaterial. What does God call it? I have found nothing in any part of the Written word that attempts to distinguish the sin/crime based upon the age of the victim. What I can point to repeatedly is the punishment for men of God abusing His Sheep. What is repugnant to me, is the premeditated philosophy, that there is a distinction in the gravity of the sin/crime based upon the maturity of the boys body. That is just plain twisted. The appearance then is given that the weight of sin is now evenly dispersed upon 'post pubescence' boys and the unholy freak that is typically protected and packed off to repeat offend.
This philosophy then follows with the claim, everybody is doing it, as though everybody is a supposed man of god calling himself 'holy father'. The sin/crime in done in the name of GOD!
You make a further claim of grooming, but I don't know of any evidence. Do you have any? I am not saying it couldn't have happened, but charges should be based on evidence. You state that one needs to have been there to exonerate the unholy freaks. Were you there? And if so, an anecdote is of minor significance.
Common sense says, and IF the reality of homosexuality were literally discussed, would demonstrate that majority of these 'homos' were accosted when they were 'prepubescence' boys. Of course I was not there, you think these perverts school their victims in public? Altar boys does have such a religious image.
