Once an allegation is made public, there is no where the priest can go to get his reputation back

That's true of anyone who is accused of a crime of this nature.

Perhaps people, priests especially, should spend more time making sure their actions are above reproach.

Anyone can be accused of anything, at any time, no matter how good they are.

Ask the daycare providers who were accused of fabricated charges during the wichhunts of the 90’s how suspect their actions were towards the children in their care.

This is not the first time you have subliminally acknowledged the holiness and superiority of the Catholic priesthood by you are proclaiming Luke 12:48 relevant to them:

"But he that knew not, and did commit things worthy of stripes, shall be beaten with few [stripes]. For unto whomsoever much is given, of him shall be much required: and to whom men have committed much, of him they will ask the more.

Why do you never post priest abuse stories like this one:

Innocent Priest
