And sadly, that is just Pennsylvania. Hundreds of predatory priests. How many more across the US and worldwide—protected by the church. They should all be tried, convicted, and executed. The church should take matters in their own hands and call them to Rome, to the Vatican, and do so directly. Fix their mess. They last executed someone publicly around 1870. Time to do so again.
“Hundreds of predatory priests. How many more across the US and worldwide—protected by the church.”
I don’t think you are a Catholic.
I have been a Catholic all my life. I have never been approached by a predatory priest.
The so called “predatory priests” were a small group of homosexuals who protected and promoted each other. Almost none had sex with children. Far fewer than in the general population. The so called “sex with minors” were homosexual priests and boys in their late teens.
Accusations going back 70 years are almost impossible to prove or disprove. That is probably the point. To make a lot of accusations to defame the innocent and the guilty.
Based on some of the reports we’ve seen on FR, it IS a worldwide problem.
This issue in PA may be the tip of the iceberg.
Or not.
Who knows, maybe it’s been all the same small group of priests who have been very busy for a long time,t o molest so many minors.
Yeah, taht’s the ticket.
They got moved every few weeks and that’s how they were able to molest kids all across the country.
