Every time someone tries to smear Protestant churches with the same lecherous brush as the RCC, I have to laugh. No organization is perfect, but no one even comes close to the homosexual pedophilia among the RC clergy and the tragic scandals and broken lives that have ensued as the layers of deceit have been peeled back to expose the truth.

$660,000,000 in one day paid out by the Los Angeles Archdiocese to settle sexual assault cases.

That amount of money is almost incomprehensible. And yet it was a two-day story and it's over.

Only one correction. It is not a pedophilia problem. It is a problem of predatory homosexuals within the priesthood. The victims were usually post pubescent boys.

No, your 'facts' are in error again.

The mainstream media has all but ignored the recent Associated Press report that the three major insurance companies for Protestant Churches in America say they typically receive 260 reports each year of minors being sexually abused by Protestant clergy, staff, or other church-related relationships.

Deep pockets mean big settlements. What is incomprehensible is a person claiming to be a Christian taking so much joy in child molestation scandals.
