“It does suggest a new PR campaign...We dont rape half as many kids as you think we do!”
“And sometimes the kids we do rape tend to exaggerate the extent of said rape trauma suffered said rape.”
LOL! Its not new!
So?
In “many” cases. How many is many? 3? 4?
Not the majority, but many.
The average Roman Catholic on the street will be paying a lot of money by way of tithes for this evil perpetrated on their own children by the Roman Catholic Church.
And what about your church?
It is estimated that priests are way down on the list even after Protestant ministers.
Remember that celibacy does not cause this great sin, it’s homosexuality.
If it concerns Rome, I would automatically do a spell-check. You know, “trust but VERIFY”. “Many Abuse Claims...” COULD be spelled “MINI Abuse Claims”. I’m just sayin..

Scripture requires zero tolerance:
But fornication, and all uncleanness, or covetousness, let it not be once named among you, as becometh saints; (Ephesians 5:3)
Any such thing is serious and causes or could cause legitimate offense against the faith, and which most all have to varying degrees, myself included. Yet especially tragic is sexual abuse of children among clergy, even if the greatest occurrence is in the secular realm, especially among educators (if not the homosexual aspect yet as seen among many priests).
And due to lack of internal discipline, it also required the state to engage in punishment. The result is that the State now has little trepidation about getting involved in church matters, and can more easily stand where it ought not.
This is not to say that there aren't true victims, just that the public perception that any Catholic priest is almost certainly a gay pedophile is a media-manufactured falsehood.
Let us recall Father Benedict Groschel, who was vilified and booted from catholic media for suggesting that the anti-Catholic hysteria is a huge hoax.
“grown men (and women) who can give you excruciating details and names as to their abuse at the hands of clergy (or other authorities).”
The problem that I have that the story brings into focus is the very fact that there exists a “forum” where the details and names are bandied about among potential litigants.
The DIFFERENCE between RCC abuse and Protestant abuse is the FACT that ROME declares the ability to retain or remit the sins of her followers. Thereby putting the abuse victim at the hands of a PRIEST in order to have their sins forgiven on their "road to salvation". Protestants have no such claim on her followers. DON"T YOU GET IT YET??!
If they had been reporterd to the police....as they should have been, this second evil wouldn’t occur.
Duh!..... Of course some are false.. But MOST/many are not..
Seems most all pedophile priests are(seem to be) American...
Other countrys rarely have any of this...
UNLESS!.....................................
Let me know when an organization runs a deliberate conspiracy to coverup and evade punishment for large numbers of child molesters in their ranks, like the church did. I don’t know of any.
I really hope they have cleaned things up, but if they have, they had to be dragged kicking and screaming to do so. And attempts to minimize the damage only make things worse.
If a priest is accused, he’s guilty. No need for a trial, just lynch him and get it done with.
If a priest isn’t accused, he hasn’t gotten caught yet. But that doesn’t mean he’s any less guilty.
(Sadly, that is the way it is perceived by many)
Why not? He said that “all” of the other candidates were “fairies”.
Yes, Father Groeschel got a bum deal.
Oh, you mean the ambulance chasing attorneys and future clients check each other out? LOL!
