Bridge for Sale!

(This piece was edited after publication; an earlier version said that it was questionable that most of the abuse cases in the Catholic Church involved men abusing boys. Guess somebody told them not to go there.)

Some of the abusers might have been gay. So what?

Only about 90%, that's all.

"Some of the abusers might have been gay."

Like, around 95% or so.

"So what?"

Doesn't prove anything.

If I remember correctly, ninety-eight percent of the child sexual abuse by Catholic priests was of boys and two percent was of girls. I won’t blame this crime against God on gays, just 98% of the crime. [Breaking their vows with adult women is an entirely separate issue.]

If there weren’t any filthy sodomites in the Catholic religious organization , this problem wouldn’t exist.

From the article: “Some of the abusers might have been gay.”

Like 70 - 80% according to reports I’ve read. And if one takes the general population as about 4% homosexual, that translates to priestly abuse that’s about 20 times more prevalent in that demographic.

I beg to differ. Why don’t the Church allow priests to marry like they did until the middle ages? Celibacy encourages homosexuals to apply for the priesthood.

"Psychologists say pedophiles are sexually aroused not by gender but by youth, and homosexuality does not make people more likely to abuse others, as studies have shown. Some of the victims in Pennsylvania were girls."

Most of this was not "pedophilia," but pederasty, and more than 81% was directed at males between the age of 11 and 17. It was largely - if not exclusively - a homosexual problem.

Typical leftist drivel, false premises running rampant, unsited and unsubstantiated “studies,” and outright lies. What do you expect from Boulder, Colorado?

ALL of the abusers of young priests and seminarians were homosexual.

Every last one of them.

ALL.

A tiny percentage were girls. What age were they?

Pedophilia is a sexual attraction to pre-pubesent people.

Nearly all the victims were pubesent or older. The vast majority were male on male.

This whole article is whitewash of homosexuality.

Pederasty is the norm among queers and no amount of BS can hide that fact.
