Allowing molesters of kids to do what the Catholics hold up as one of the most important, Holy things it does? Allow them to do THAT while "in a state of sin?" The sin of molesting children in the most vile base sexual way No, the church does not allow those that she knows are in a state of sin to do much of anything.

"handle on it" of course, as you know, means taken steps to assure that it doesn't happen again.

that it" happens far more often in protestant churches" statement means that you are living in a glass house and should be very careful when casting stones.

Sexual immorality within non-Catholic denominations, especially in the cases that I have been personally aware of, are more along the lines of garden variety adultery between a male and female adult, not the homosexual rape of children.

God condemns homosexuality in a different way than adultery, as it reveals a depravity of mind that adultery does not.

Please compare apples to apples.

Oh, and BTW, the cases I've known of ministers who have been involved in adultery, have been relieved of their positions and their credentials have been revoked.

In one of your own posts you said a priest in a state of sin could do the conscreating ritual.

And not let them do much of anything?

So it is not much of anything that they knew these priests were forcing children into vile sexual acts and sent them to other areas where the did the same thing?

That is totally unacceptable.

Catholics just ignore that? That sure isn't handling it right and is NOT taking steps to make sure it doesn't happen again. In fact, they ALLOWED it to happen over and over again. Pathetic.

AMAZING!

Just like your Masters; you have to 'explain' that what was plainly written, means something else!

Can't you just SAY what you MEAN the FIRST time?
