And I have an equal obligation to the Catholics who came before me, and the ones who will come after me,
to pass along the Faith and the resources with which I was entrusted. They’re not mine to throw away.

Nor are they Bishop Mahony's out in LA - but he's doing a damn good job of it.

SNAP and VOTF have always been fronts for anti-Catholic/barely Catholic liberal groups like Call-to-Action and FutureChurch. They prey upon victims of sex abuse more than help them. They have no interest in addressing the root causes of the abuse crisis (i.e., homosexuality in the priesthood)--they are much more interested in using the crisis and the victims to bludgeon the Church and turn it in a direction amenable to their goals.

They will fail.

I've REPEATEDLY written to my local fishwrap about the FAR GREATER sexual crimes of the gov't schools. However, they won't print the letters or respond to me. The media is the enemy of the Catholic Church and the protector to the govt school system and enablers of their sexual crimes

While I grant you it's hard to swallow the indictments of the guilty priests while believing others of equal guilt avoid the same treatment, let's face it...the behaviour is still wrong.

Getting a ticket for disobeying driving laws is a perfect comparison. Why me, when I constantly witness others breaking the law? Answer: Because I also broke the law and happened to get caught doing it! Unfair? Who DOESN'T feel that way? But is it?
