Name-calling does not bolster whatever argument you were making.
It’s time to stop coddling these middle-aged homosexuals who want to exploit the Church financially, who remember that Father so and so from 20-30-years ago was gay, and who think they can get a million dollar plus payout and a wad of sympathy from gullible folks like you.
I’m an ‘anti-Catholic bigot’, one of the ‘gullible folks’ who’s ‘as ignorant as (you) think (I) am’, but I’m name calling.
What name have I called you?
Are you telling me that your argument, and I’ll repeat the salient points here as I understand them, is serious?!
The priests were victimized by predatory teen homosexuals.
These same priests, when identified, were moved to different parishes, because, as you say, contemporaneous mental health professionals declared them ‘healed’.
-Healed of what? Homosexuality is not recognized as a mental disorder and victimhood isn’t either.
The church agreed to pay money to the families of these victims or to the victims themselves (depending on whether the victims - or predators- had BECOME ADULTS yet.
The church did this to keep the lid on the problem and to secure non-disclosure agreements from the victim/perpetrators.
The church continues to make payouts to the degree that 20 plus US dioceses are bankrupt.
After all these payouts to predator victims, from the Church, it’s ME that’s coddling them?
So, the Catholic church finds itself as either:
- a breeding ground for future angry homosexuals who sue the church for millions (billions) in adulthood; remembering father so and so who either did nothing or was victimized by predatory teens.
- an organization that employed some of the wrong people and then tried to cover their tracks by securing the silence of accusers with money and confidentiality agreements
- everything more or less happened but since the liberal media ignores the word homosexual and instead potentially misuses the word ‘pedophile’ in reference to teens; everyone should make nice and leave the church to sooth it’s victim priests back into full ministry.
I hereby withdraw my question as to whether you are like the tea party infiltrators. Sadly, you’ve convinced me you’re serious.
I removed my snarky tagline since it’s such a distraction.
