But never forget that Catholic priests sexually abused childed four times times as often as did "Protestant" pastors...
I was raised Catholic, attend a Presbyterian church now. I think there are many saved Christians in both bodies and I don’t think it is right to gloat over the troubles of any member of the body of Christ that is the Church with a capital “C.” I know that Catholics honestly feel that Protestants do not act with the benefit of the whole of the gospel. I know that Protestants believe that Catholics act within the gospel but with artificial and false doctrine added. But the individual Christian’s relationship with Christ is the crux of the matter; whether they have this relationship or not. I believe that in no church are the church leaders right on all doctrine. This view in and of itself makes me not a Roman Catholic, I think. However, a priest abusing a child does not make the Catholic church evil or illegitimate. A Protestant preacher getting caught with a prostitute or other sin does not make the believers in his church any less Christian. Satan will glory in any troubles among either body of faith in my opinion. “And lead us not into temptation but deliver us from evil.” Nothing to gloat about . . . hard as it is not to take sides and gloat. Am I wrong?
"Let him who has 25% of the sin cast the first stone."
Jesus also made clear that we are to forgive those who sin against us. How many times, asks St. Peter, Seven times? Seventy times seven, responds our Lord. But then, you already know this :-)
