You are wrong if you think that Catholics are not outraged over every single one of these pedophile priests.

But, a post such as this is used to try to tear down the Church and not as edification.

These type of posts are meant to try to do to honorable Catholics what honest debate cannot, and that is to cast doubt on their faith.

The church is so much more than these men and this scandal.

All this does is to point out what Catholics have never denied, that our church is not a church of the perfect, but rather a place for sinners.

The faith is not harmed by this, only people. What other purpose is there to keep flogging at it?

Oh it is not...These men ARE your church...Your religion does not resemble any New Testament church in the scriptures...It was created and developed over centuries by men...The same men spoken of in this article...

Honest debate always puts your religion is a true light, or darkness...I assume that's why Catholics are instructed not to debate your religion...

It is in the best interest of your eternal soul to have doubts about your religion...
