Back in the 80s it was primarily Baptists who were being accused. In one case near me the whole congregation was accused and lost their children for a while.
That witchhunt fell apart when it was proved that the child psychologists involved in the cases were coaching small children to make up stories of molestation.
Obviously it does occasionally happen but only an idiot would believe that its widespread and institutionalized.
Bill Donohue of the Catholic League, when the scandal was front & center, pointed out (without defending the Church’s handling of the crimes) that in one week in the NYC public school system five different children were assaulted by school employees.
Never made “the news”...and he had names, dates, places.
There is no defense for sexaul assault of a minor; there is also no defense for holding one group to a much higher standard than others.
You know, you'd think the Baptists on FR would remember this fact and be a little sympathetic for the Catholic Church. But, no, their hatred for the Catholicism causes them to partner with the likes of SNAP in denigrating the Catholic Church. Sad.
