A priest molests or rapes a young boy(s) and gets caught...He is then shuffled to another parish to continue the same dirty deed...This goes on for his lifetime in your religion...
Some priests are known to have affected the lives of 200 boys or so during their career...
THAT is the issue...There's a religious institution that condones and aids in this perversion of our male youth...Your religion appears to be the major recruitment center for the queer movement in the World...
And then, these queer priests go on to become bishops and cardinals and likely popes...
And are you making the spurious claim that only Catholic priests are guilty of this conduct? Or that only the Catholic Church followed the accepted norms of the day?
And what organizations have adopted the rules of today that protect Catholic children?
Some protestant ministers support homosexual unions, some have stolen hundreds of thousands of dollars. Some pseudo christians come on these threads to say stupid things, over and over with no proof.
That wouldn't be out of the ordinary. Male adults who molest boys average 150-200 victims, depending on whose statistics you believe.
The main reason these lawsuits are filed is because of MONEY. Did you know that clergy are the only people in the world that have no statute of limitations against filing a claim against them? Teachers, cops, firemen, all public servants, and all other segments of society have a statute of limitations, or how long you can wait before filing charges against someone.......except the clergy.
It goes something like this: A shyster lawyer runs an ad saying that if you have ever been sexually abused by a priest to come and see him, that he can help. You are broke. You go see the lawyer. He tells you that dream you had of being molested 40 years ago will never go away unless you get a shrink and unless you file charges against Father Tom. He lets you know there are no statute of limitations against Father Tom. You start seeing dollars signs in your head and retired 85 year old Father Tom is arrested. He has no defense. He denies it ever happened. But thats not good enough. Hes a Catholic priest, therefore he has to be guilty. To make the story go away, because there is no way this Catholic priest can prove his innocence, the local diocese pays the ranson money. The victim and the shyster lawyer are happy campers. The 85 year old Catholic priest, is humiliated and labeled a sex offender and has to register as a sex offender.
If this story has involved a cop, a school teacher, a fireman, a politician, or anyone else, the judge would have thrown it out of court due the statute of limitations having ran out.
Its all about FOLLOW THE MONEY. Its all about destroying the moral authority of the Catholic Church. End of story.
