“I am not going to debate who is Catholic and who is not. That is insulting. Maybe you are lucky, I was as well, but the news is clear that there are plenty of homosexual and predatory clergy.”

I did not mean to insult you. I was trying to find out your background. I should have worded it differently.

I agree that there are evil people in the Catholic Church hierarchy.

I knew about Cardinal McCarrick years ago. I also knew about other homosexuals in the priesthood and hierarchy.

But I also know many good and holy priests and I hate to see them unfairly attacked.

I know of good priests who would not wear their collar in public because they were falsely and unfairly attacked by strangers who knew nothing about them.

My late uncle was one of those. The fault however lies with the Bishops for failing to weed-out the bad actors.
