I’d love to hang, draw, and quarter the pedophile priests.

But Protestantism has its own share of sexual miscreants and cover ups, so look at the plank in your own eye. Matthew 7:3

[smvoice]

Why oh why won't they ever understand that it is particularly heinous in the RCC, because the Church sets itself up as the ONLY way to salvation. A child who is sexually abused in the RCC loses not only his innocence, but if he tells, he is in mortal fear of losing his only way to salvation. The RCC pedophile priest takes that child's body AND his soul. And holds over him the “power” to retain or remit that child's sins forever.

I never said it didn’t and the treatment is adequate.

However, when the knee jerk reaction is to deflect and say *Yeah? Well he does it, too!*, all it looks like is excusing the behavior.
