I'm not Catholic and I don't follow this story real closely. But the bad news for the church just keeps on coming. One wonders how much more of this they can take.

The article says they have "only" 22 new accusations from those who are minors right now.

I don't know any other organization in the world (other than the UN, of course) that would be pleased to have "only" 22 accusations of molestation in the last year or so.

I'm a Christian Orthodox and I am horribly saddened by the enormous damage this does to Christianity as a whole.

It's time for th RC's to change their leaders from top to bottom. It's long past time for the RC Church to return to its fundamentals...Christian precepts only.

Like that report, the new survey found that most of the alleged victims were boys from the ages of 10 to 14.

Anyone care to hazard a guess what kind of man is interested in adolescent boys?

Notice a word beginning with "h" and ending with "l" that is conspicuously not used in the article?
