You’re painting with a mighty broad bush there, using that term “pervert’ against the majority of FReepers here.
Could it be your Catholicism has been offended and you’re lashing out?
Don’t blame us “perverts” for laughing please. After all - it was a Catholic school that erected this statue. And then covered it up.
And would this even be a issue at all if it were not for the thousands of cases where a pedo priest has offered a little boy some “bread”?
Where ever there are children there is a possibility of having those who prey on children. Statistics grow along with the size of the sample group. Protection and prevention is paramount of course. But also very important is what is done once a predator is identified. It is a shame a church allowed those who were identified to continue access. This has also became the way our society has been siding with the privacy and ‘feelings’ rights of abusive perverts, etc. over the safety and wellbeing children everywhere (schools, adoption, social groups (boy scouts), etc.
I calls ‘em as I sees ‘em.
And I will blame the perverts in our perverted culture. Being a pervert (or not) is a choice. Choose wisely.
