If you disagree, explain to me how “Don't blame us, everybody rapes children® - Vatican” is not anti-Catholic bigotry.

Simple, it illustrates the fact that instead of addressing the abuse, many Catholics deflect and point to abuse elsewhere as an excuse for the church. I find it disgusting.

Why do you say it is an "excuse for the church"? There is no credibility from anyone who behaves as though "the church" is the only locus of child sexual abuse. Focusing on "the church" is dishonest.

So the Catholic Church has done nothing to address the abuse issue? Really? You must attend a different parish than I do. My priest regularly talks about sins of homosexuality and the disaster that the abuse has brought on the victims. Pamphlets are posted encouraging people to report inappropriate behavior, and, as best can be done, mechanisms are in-place to make certain abuse does not go unchecked.

Oh - wait - you don't go to a Catholic Church. You'd have no idea about any of this. Gee, looks like you're throwing a load of crap around, only caring that it makes Catholics look bad. Hallmark of a hater.
