That is pretty pathetic. Let’s marginalize the Roman Catholic duplicity by including other groups who have abused...

Agreed. There are sinners everywhere, in all denominations. The big question is, when discovered, is the church involved in covering it up, shuttling the pastor/priest into another church/parish without a good investigation, allowing the pastor/priest to continue his hellish abuse under the protection of said church?
IF the RCC just dropped the boom on the pedophile priests, after a thorough investigation, I would have to say that the RCC was doing it’s job in maintaining discipline. (It would still have to settle, as this is not a nation ran with Christian values at the center anymore.)
Rather, what happened was coverups. When you can show any church doing that, it is not a good sign of its guidance by the Spirit, but rather a political bent on keeping all the dirt under the carpet, at the expense of the hearts and pain of Christians.
Yes, I am sure that there are Protestant churches that do the same, and I see them all not following Christian principles, as the RCC authorities didn’t in this instance. I will protest them when I see them.
