Because the Catholic Church has been infiltrated by pedophiles and those who would seek to destroy it, the truth of catholic teaching is no less valid.

Then why isn't it practiced? Infiltrate; seek to destroy; then root them out and get rid of them. Don't coddle them or pass them around. Where's the Catholic teaching on that? That lack of action speaks volumes about Catholic teaching.

what about the wolves in your own midst?

They get prosecuted when they are found at a vastly higher rate than Rome.

It must be nice having so little organization so that only the guilty incur wrath and not the entire denomination.

If it wasn't endemic in Catholicism and the Catholic hierarchy actually took steps to rid itself of the plague in an open manner, all you would hear around here would be cheers.

And the point is still valid

You act as if every priest is an abuser. I believe it’s what?3% or less? Yes, that is 3% too much but it’s not what the enemies of the Church would have us believe.

Some of them have been prosecuted, I’m sure more will be. They have brought great scandal to the priesthood.

Although these evil men were in the Church, the truth of Catholic teaching is still valid.

I will not leave Jesus because of Judas.
