Why only the US?
Are these not scandals in other countries, or is it okay to be a pedo in other countries?
Just wondering.
The US implemented a program to prevent future occurences of abuse. This is not the case elsewhere. I believe the pope has recommended to other countries that they review this program and adapt it to their respective situations.
Nothing against genuine abuse but we do have 70% of the worlds lawyers. No other country has this amount. Where there is a lawyer you can be sure its for the love of money, most of the time.
