Lass,

I don’t care if the abuse is by Catholics, Protestants, Buddhists, Wiccans, etc...

IT IS ALL WRONG!

Using the excuse, “other groups rape children too” is vile and really doesn’t help your cause.

I’ve been trying to tell you and others on this forum to stop using that excuse not because I’m a member of any of the offending religions but because it is a weak and disgusting defense.

Really, it is sick!

What Church do you belong to?

I may be wrong, but the response that others do it as well is not meant to exonerate those in the Church who are perpetrating these autrocities. But what is disgusting is that the media is trying to portray the Church as the ONLY religion that is guilty of these sins, which is not the case. It's certainly not an excuse, but it's not isolated just to the Catholic Church.
