"What is wrong with the Catholic Church that this continues going on?"

What is wrong with man that he is fallen in nature? In the world there are about 500,000 Catholic priests, each a flawed human being and each a target of Satan. Please identify any other organization that has a similarly low number of incidents per clergy.

Peace be with you

Oh, so nobody is perfect, eh?

Well, if actively homosexual, child molesting priests are good enough to practice in the Catholic church, I don’t see that ANY Catholic is in any position to point any fingers at ANYONE else’s lifestyle or church of preference.

It’s the height of hypocrisy to point fingers of condemnation against those who lave left the church and claim that it’s really secretly because of moral issues, and to blow off the abominable behavior of pederast priests with no more than a *Oh well, nobody is perfect*.

Disgusting beyond words. If nothing else, that reason alone would be enough to keep me out of the Catholic church. Such a flippant attitude towards some of the most destructive, life destroying sin speaks volumes of the people who have that kind of attitude, and it doesn’t paint a pretty picture of what’s in THEIR hearts.

Things have not changed in the last 1,000 years or so in Catholicism and I’d wager that there’s accounts of it going back further than that.

The gates of hell certainly are prevailing against the Catholic church but those inside are too blinded by their indoctrination to see it or want to admit it.

According to the Catholic whistleblower, the number is not that low...In fact, he implies that it is very high...
