this I will make a comment on... The abuse scandal in the Catholic Church. Out of all the molestation charges 2% were committed by Catholic priests. That leaves 98% from every other walk of life. I lay some blame on those who shuffled these men from parish to parish. I lay all the blame on those who entered the priesthood who knew they had a problem. Just as they do when they become teachers, boy scout leaders, ministers or what they choose to put themself in a position of taking advantage of children.We think it’s bad now...wait a few years. The way the children have been exposed to pornography...we haven’t seen anything yet. There are more important issues to be bickering about. We have to pray and act to change this country. This country I still believe is a Christian nation. Maybe if we’d act like it things would change. Our energy would be put to better use. How about fasting against pornography? How about prayer groups going into battle against pornography...that is one battle we’d better be wearing strong armour. We’d better put on our combat boots because I have a feeling ...no...I know we haven’t seen anything yet. satan is causing division among the troops and the army is weakened...he loves this bickering...it takes our eyes off the real battle. This is a spiritual battle. The battle is with him. I know it, you know it. The victory is ours. It was won for us by our Lord. Our mission is to bring as many as we can with us. To point them in the right direction. The grace of God will take care of the rest.

The 'duck and cover' tactic doesn't get it...The numbers have never been the issue...The issue is your organized boy buggering mafia that not only protects its own perverts but provides 'opportunity' all over the world when one spot gets a little too hot to handle...

And then how many of these sexually abused boys, teenagers and young men become Catholic priests, bishops, cardinals and popes themselves to carry on their trade???

No, the numbers have never been the argument...And those of you who are trying to detract from the issue are just as guilty as the ringleaders...
