So I don't think it's a question of anyone receiving their just deserts,

EXACTLY
It is the children of hard working parents who have sacrificed to pay the tuition to Catholic schools so their children would receive a decent education who have been utterly betrayed by these hypocrit Cardinals who should be in jail.
These people are disgusting
And the POPE sits on his hands and does nothing

Oh? Have you been to the Vatican lately? Do you know what the Pope does on any given day?

Nah, a serious crackdown would drive most of the pedophiles and homos out. Break the chain somewhere and they'll start outing each other left and right. It's about to get really ugly, I predict.

Uncbob:

Why don't you fess up to what your real problem with Catholicism is? Until you do you will look like nothing but an opportunistic Catholic-basher. Anyone who thinks that there is something about celibacy that will lead an otherwise straight man to molest boys is toting less than a full six-pack. Likewise anyone who thinks that forcing marriage on the otherwise lavender will guarantee that they will avoid the practice of that which flips the switch of a homosexual pederast.

If you are married, do you think that is all that keeps you away from ten-year-old boys? If you are not married but are attracted to what adult female paramour has to offer, whether you practice that or not, can you imagine pursuing and molesting a ten-year-old boy as a substitute?

Inquiring loyal Catholics would like to know. So would some of our solid friends and fellow soldiers of Christ in this fallen world who are of the Reformed Christian persuasion but are so joyous in their love of the Lord and in the Word of the Lord that they practice and spread their own faith on the merits and do not define themselves by bashing Catholics and Catholicism.

That is exactly what Satan and the enemies of Christ and His church, within and without, want. Those outside what to divide and conquer. Those inside want to drive the true believers out so that they can control the hollow shell.

Faithful Catholics must preserver and trust that Christ will not ever let the enemies prevail against His church.
