From the news story: "At the time that this happened, she was 14 years of age and that is not the age of consent"

Oh, the irony. I was told just last month by a Catholic woman, defending Catholics priest(s), that 14 should be considered over the age of consent!

What a disgusting pig this guy is.

FYI: You are whining in the wrong order. You are supposed to say “if only the church leader could marry....” before you whine about the disparity of coverage this might have gotten if it were a Catholic priest.

Of course, one could ask that you first indicate that you are repulsed by the actual act of a trusted adult molesting a minor before you worry if someone, somewhere is having impure anti-Catholic thoughts or intent, but hey, whatever you are into.

Not a lot because the Catholic church would have hidden the issue by moving the priest around between parishes, and it would have been suppressed for 20 years at which time it would have been dismissed as "old news"...
