“Do they really think Non Catholic denominations are safe from attack by secularists? Do they really think that no sins are ever committed by their clergy or members?”

Actually, most non-Catholic denominations DEAL with the problem. They don’t cover up decades of sexual abuse by homosexuals. Caught = out.

Well you really can not know if a cover up happened until somebody exposes the cover up.

So it is only the Catholic Church that has any sinners amongst its clergy and Bishops? It is only the Catholic Church that has ever had any member guilty of sexual abuse? It is only the Catholic Church where the guilty were wrongly and mistakenly viewed as a problem to be handled in house?

And I was not limiting my example of sin to that of homosexual behavior. But since you belong to a sinless denomination I see there is not need for any enlightenment.

Actually, most deal with the issue by sending on the sinners to other pastures. I grew up in a small town with thirty different Protestant churches and personally—as a teenager—knew of three sexual scandals in local churches. one of them was prosecuted. They were allowed to skip town. The thing about a decentralized system is that there is no record of much of what happens. Much the same story goes for the more than 10,000 public school districts.
