I’m a Protestant but believe if this had been a Catholic Priest, it would have been posted across the headline.

Here's the difference between how these crimes are handled in Protestant churches and in Roman Catholic churches.

In Roman Catholic churches, these pederast priests are defended, the crimes denied, the victims sworn to secrecy, and if the heat gets too great, these priests are shuffled from one unsuspecting parish to the next where they can continue to rape children. Some are even promoted.

The link given at the beginning of this article gives more details on how this case was handled by a Protestant church. Roman Catholics should read this and learn how to protect their children...

"The Rev. Lonnie Parton of Victory Fellowship Church said church leaders were stunned when four young men came forward with allegations against Girouex in February.

Once Parton learned of the allegations, he confronted Girouex and told him he needed to go to the police and make a confession. He did so on Feb. 16.

Get the difference? When vile accusations like this are made, the police are called in and people are arrested.

No stalling. No banal defenses which attack the victims all over again.

God help the children whose church's care more about the reputations of pederast priests than the well-being of its young.

Now, come clean Dr. Eckleburg -- don't use the OPC obfuscation and tell us the real percentage of molestations in the OPC. It may have just 10,000 adults and 10,000 kids, but the molestation rate of 5 to 15% is horrendous.

We Christians (Baptists, Catholic-Orthodox, Lutherans, Pentecostals, Anglicans, Methodists etc.) will pray for the victims of sexual abuse including those numbers molested by OPC pastors.
