Wow!
You know, I've about had it with religion. Religion just seems to be an area denial for investigation of criminal and terroristic activity.
I have my bibles and I don't need a false front for a church or a self appointed homo to interprete it for me.

BTTT!
Protestant Born Again Minister Child Abuse List
ping.
**James Cobble, executive director of CMR, who oversees the survey, says the data show that child sex-abuse happens broadly across all denominations– and that clergy aren’t the major offenders.
“The Catholics have gotten all the attention from the media, but this problem is even greater with the Protestant churches simply because of their far larger numbers,” he says. **
BTTT with some real facts.
And money.
Sex abuse spans spectrum of [non-Catholic] churches
WV Pastor Wanted for Soliciting A Minor
The humiliation of the Southern Baptist convention
Clay County Baptist pastor accused of sexual battery of child
Fox News Report
In fundamentalist and evangelical churches -- sexual abuse
Other non-Catholic churches and sexual abuse
Add destruction of the family in there, too.
FYI
Where are all the protestants that crash Catholic threads? We need to hear from them about this, too!

These sick monsters are just as sick as your sick monsters are.
Do you have a point to make?

for later
While it may happen anywhere nowhere is it systemically covered up and its perpetrators shuffled to unsuspecting congregations as it is in the Roman church. That is the difference
And it’s proponents are still trying to defend the indefensible. Rather than pointing ringers at others or excluding what happened why don’t you turn your energies into cleaning up your own mess?
Even though public school teachers are responsible for more molestations, Christians will be judged more severely, and especially Catholics. They were called to Protect the innocent and shepherd souls. Better they get punished in THIS life, to the full extent. It all needs to be revealed and The Church cleansed.
Seems a big difference is in COVERING UP. Many churches now screen helpers, but what has caused huge problems for the Catholics is the homosexual aspect and the cover up of pedophiles/homosexuals by those above them.
I do not 'knowingly' crash Catholic threads! What is beyond bizarre is how easily it is for some catholics to play the 'everybody is doing it' card. I read the article, it simply does not measure up with what has been exposed.
The claim is made by many, that the Catholic Church is the 'bride of Christ', the oldest, biggest, baddest Church ...and then some will contrast and compare their 'holy' abuse to the evil protestants... seriously?
I did not find one example where some protestant preacher, called himself 'holy father' abused one single child. The article dating back to 2002, projects that only the Catholics were getting the media attention.. and their 'surveys' point to a larger widespread problem across protestantville. The article attempts to claim that 'secrecy' is the protestants fault for hiding criminals among them...
There are two typical excuses given for the perverts running catholicism ... Secular media picks on them... the 'book of Jay' report commissioned by the US Catholic Bishops ... it is just a homosexual issue. After all the poor priests have been seduced by an invasion of post-pubasant boys.
Then the church ladies, dumpster dive on evil protestants for their sexual perversion stories... as whitewash, see 'everybody is doing it'. God said sodomy is an abomination... messing with a child, mentality, physically, or sexually is against God ... and He keeps the only record that counts for everybody.
Christ instructed Matthew 10: 5These twelve Jesus sent forth, and commanded them, saying, Go not into the way of the Gentiles, and into any city of the Samaritans enter ye not:
6But go rather to the lost sheep of the house of Israel.
7And as ye go, preach, saying, The kingdom of heaven is at hand.
8Heal the sick, cleanse the lepers, raise the dead, cast out devils: freely ye have received, freely give.
9Provide neither gold, nor silver, nor brass in your purses,
10Nor scrip for your journey, neither two coats, neither shoes, nor yet staves: for the workman is worthy of his meat.
11And into whatsoever city or town ye shall enter, inquire who in it is worthy; and there abide till ye go thence.
12And when ye come into an house, salute it.
13And if the house be worthy, let your peace come upon it: but if it be not worthy, let your peace return to you.
14And whosoever shall not receive you, nor hear your words, when ye depart out of that house or city, shake off the dust of your feet.
******15Verily I say unto you, It shall be more tolerable for the land of Sodom and Gomorrha in the day of judgment, than for that city.********
You just 'heard' what Christ said would be...
Not surprised.
Sadly, it is across board in the Christian Faith community.
1 Peter 4:17.
The house cleaning has started, via the closing of the wallets and pocketbooks.
The reason the Catholic Church got more press is because it’s got much more money to enable far more predators.
