You would think Catholics would flock to that statement and loudly say they renounce those actions completely and unconditionally.

I, for one, did exactly that....there was no excuse for the way the church handled that situation...none. However, (new thought coming up for those concerned with the word however) I went on to explain that the church had undertaken seriuos new policies to alleviate the situation in the future.

now an additional thought...The Catholic church has paid out billions of dollars to victims of abuse....how much has your "denomination" had to lay out????.........crickets

Which “denomination” are you “assuming” any one of us belong to? Have you ever heard any of us put our faith in a “denomination” like the Catholics put their faith in the RCC?

"????.........crickets "

Your first mistake was expecting an honest and civil discussion with these people. Thankfully, they do not represent the vast majority of our separated brothers and sisters who are honestly Christian enough to be honest in their discussions.

What you will get from these people is lies and insults carefully couched in the rules of the forum and outrageous accusations that have been responded to many, many times. If we allow ourselves to be troubled by the liars, to be goaded to respond in kind or to rise to anger they will have succeeded in thier incitements to sin. Concede the mud hole to the pigs but continue to love and serve the lord.

Peace be with you

No I would be glad to answer your question that assumes that I belong to a denomination that would do things like the Catholic church has done.

For starters, I don't have a denomination.

No church I have ever been a part of has had those in the ministry that commited those types of acts.

Nice try to attempt to put the blame on others for what the Catholics did.

And they certainly did TRILLIONS in damage to young venerable children with the vicious violent painful sex acts they forced those children to endure.

Those children are scarred for life, the Catholic church should have SOLD ALL THEIR ASSETS AND GIVEN THEM TO THESE PEOPLE and gone out of business with great shame.

Good for you saying that.

Then of course you go on and try to show that it wasn't that bad, everyone does it.
