The moderator has weighed in. You are right. I do support pederast priests and approve of the steps taken by the heirarchy to shield them. I fully agree that sexual immorality on the part of priests should be excused because they are alter Christs. That any accusations against priests must only be heard by the Vatican and that the victims are forbidden from going to the police.
As a Catholic I must approve of immoral sexual behavior because priestly celibacy is a core doctrine of my Church. This leads to a priest seeking out sexual outlets in unwholesome and vile ways. But it is not their fault.
I figure I might as well go all out and agree with you 100% since the mod will not tell you that making such accusations is flame bait. I must therefore conclude that he agrees with your statement. In light of such evidence of Catholic guilt I must yield.
Let all Catholics take note. Stating that we do not denounce Pederast Priests is a neutral statement that can neither be shown to be true or false. It is not a personal attack. It is not flame bait. It is the same as disputing whether we worship Mary.
Such a sttatement is a mere matter of perception. It is a simple misconception of Catholic teaching. It was made without motive or guile or any ill intent.
It must be true. For why would someone make a false statement of such wicked claims?

More unmitigated RC balderdash
mannipulative !!!!CONTROL!!!!
intimidation nonsense . . .
If they can’t coerce, manipulate, !!!!DEMAND!!!! things according to their sensibilities, then they seem compelled to hyper-ventilate and scream that things are absurd to the max . . . evidently just for effect or to flatter their Alice In Wonderland constructions on reality.
An endless supply of such flows from the Vatican Cult 24/7.
The cry of catholic condemning the RCC hierarchy of covering up and the evil acts of priests against catholic children is deafening.
Can you guys shout louder - no one can hear you. Or are catholics not a part of the RCC, just pew sitters? Or if catholics speak out against the Vatican/RCC and their approach in handling these sexual deviants would they be called ‘heretics’ by their church? Is it fear that is stopping the 1B catholics they claim to have?
Surely, if there was some kind of demonstration, even in PA, it would make news. After all, demands are what catholics do. ACTION is what was needed years ago - now the law is involved in one diocese trying to bring justice for those victims who have been left ‘solely’ by the church and members they once trusted. Come to papa, children.
All silly rants behind the screen on who said what, if you don’t disagree....blah, blah. Take your rants where they belong - to the Vatican/RCC.
