Does the Catholic doctrine not teach that The Recorder of the only Book that counts does not use percentages?

IPeter 4:17 For the time is come that judgment must begin at the house of God: and if it first begin with us, what shall the end be of them that obey not the gospel of God?

Remember Aaron's two sons, God killed them for playing with strange fire.

The idea that the Catholic Church has paid out mass fortunes for the acts of their employees, calls into question the 'charity' front used in the 'social justice' agenda. Things are not adding up.

I am a Christian and the WORD, is a twoedged sword it cuts both ways from the extreme left all the way around to the extreme right. Abuse is not a math calculation, it is playing 'god' with God's own children. Not something that will escape His attention.

To: Just mythoughts; Dr. Thorne
I've read your post twice, but I'm not sure I'm getting your point.

Never did I say that God's judgment uses percentages.

Dr. Thorne asserted that Catholic clergy are prone to be sexually abusive because of false docrtine. I pointed out that Catholic clergy are not particularly prone to be abusive: they offend at rates similar to other (Christian) clergy, and also similar to all married men taken as a statistical class. This furnishes evidence that Catholic "doctrines" are not at the root of these horrible sins of abuse.

Such disgusting sins are found across all demographic categories. This does not minimize the evil of these sins: far from it.

It does show that serious repentance is needed across the board, for God's judgment is strict and certain.
