Why this RC bashing. Please, enough is enough.

As much as I am made uncomfortable by this article, it's really very worth being aware of it. If you go to the original site and look at the comments, you can see that they for the most part have quite a liberal and anti-Catholic bent. This is the type of rot that the media foists on an unsuspecting public, and liberal readers (including liberal Catholics) eat it right up, ready to regurgitate it later to attack the Church.

For quite awhile Catholics will need to be wise in debunking the claims that the Church still perpetuates child abuse while routing out the last of those that actually did allow it. Those who are angry about the abuse (and rightly so), will use that to attack the Church in other respects, as the article shows. However, we can't allow that single point to be used to deflate the Catholic Church nor of Christianity at large.

I don't see eye-to-eye with Alex on some things, but I think this isn't a bad find.

Unfortunately, Satan disagrees.
