You are a bigot.

Protestant ministers have been molesting young people and children at a HIGHER rate than Catholic priests for many decades. Same with government school teachers.

And no one has instituted more strict, or effective, counter-measures that the Catholic Church in the U.S.

I suppose p
ublic humiliation coupled with multimillion dollar court judgements tends to cause the development of such policies.

“Protestant ministers have been molesting young people and children at a HIGHER rate than Catholic priests for many decades. “

Well, the counter argument is that there is no power structure protecting pedophile Protestant ministers. Protestants are far more individualistic than others, so their identity is not tied to their church affiliation and are in no hurry to protect criminals and perverts within their “ranks.”

Based on my observation, Catholics, Islamics, Jews, and Hindus see accusation of criminal behaviors within their ranks as assault on their entire faith. They are simply much more insecure. Protestants and Buddhists don’t give a sh#t.

Even if we accept your statement here; with NO evidence shown; to be true; at least PROTESTants have no Catch and Release program!

Where is your proof of that? And more importantly did the church and school board work to cover it up?
