Bishop Finn did in fact report the abuse. That’s why the priest was arrested.
You may be entirely right. But the Catholic Church set itself for this kind of smear because of its past behavior in trying to cover this stuff up. I have no sympathy for “The Church”—none whatsoever. You reap what you sow.
Face it, there are those who are absolutely giddy about pedophiles masquerading as priests and abusing children. They are only disappointed that there are not many more cases to use as ammunition against the Church. Do you notice the absolute glee when they post these stories?
If they were sincerely concerned about the innocent victims we would see them posting stories about even higher rates of abuse in other denominations and secular institutions. Their silence on these other cases reveals their true agenda and the blackness of their souls.
Wouldn't happen if he weren't Catholic. Looks like Nero's on his way back.
