Yes the largest sexual abuse institution in the US is the public school. You’d think it was the exact church due to media coverage.

“There’s a difference between homosexual and heterosexual pedophiles.”

Yes, but these aren’t technically pedophiles, in the sense used by such studies. In the vast majority of the cases, the victims are at least pubescent. So it’s no less wicked and still very perverse, but the perps in question are attracted to more anatomically mature victims. There’s a reason the split isn’t closer to 50-50, like pedophilia victims: the men are attracted to males, not infants.

No that's what studies say; studies that look at the probabilities between victims and abuser .
BTW - a point that confuses the issue is that studies define pedophiles as people who abuse prepubescent minors. However the press tends to call any priest who abuses minors “pedophiles” even if the victim is a teenager. The majority of the (priest) abuse victims we found were male teenagers. Homosexuals pursue minors (generally after puberty) as a statistical norm.
That makes this particular event a rare case according to the information we had.

Correct. However the press confuses the issue by calling priestly abuse of teenage minors, pedophilia. It’s not. It’s garden variety homosexual behavior.

Hogwash. My friend’s dad went after all his kids, sons and daughters. Fine church going married man who hid his evil behind a facade.

Why do Catholic churches have altar boys?

So the priests can molest them, that’s why.

Why do pedophiles always seem to get jobs/careers around children?

Why do you rob banks? Because that’s where the money is.

When you bring the children together soon the pervert vultures will start circling trying to find a way to get at them. Some will then join the organizations, then work from the inside to put themselves in a position of power.

When this happens, people will blame the organization, not the pervert.

But historically and currently there is a just a huge homo and pederast arm that seems to have a lot of sway.

Probably the biggest reason why priests should be permitted to get married.

If it happens once at an organization, I don’t think it’s
quite as likely for the org to get the blame.

If it happens over and over in the organization people get a
little fatigued with the excuses.

It’s always my objective to make sure the perp gets a long
sentence and there are no offenses involving other perps
within the same organization.

There’s only one group who likes to pretend that buggering boys before or after puberty is different, and likes to claim they aren’t pedophiles unless it’s prepubescent.

You shouldn’t say that in public. People will wonder what kind of man says that kind of thing. Ben Cartwright, John Wayne and Clint Eastwood would all be disgusted at the idea that a man sodomizing a 15 year old is different than a man sodomizing a 9 year old. Both are the same sickness.

You have fallen victim to another propaganda game the homo advocates play. Pretending gay molesters just count as pedophiles, not homos.

Difference without distinction. Same thing except for the deviants who pretend it’s different.

Actually, it’s the biggest reason to choose decent men of God and drive the moneychangers out of the Church, so to speak.
