This is negligence at the very least.

No it's not. This guy trusted that lightning wouldn't strike twice, in the same place.

The gullibility of trusting Catholics is the stuff of legend, but there's a lot of truth to the attitude that many Catholics took toward their priests.

That iconic view is shattered now, however, likely forever. And that's a good thing.

It is indeed a good thing the mind-set is changing.

Still very hard for me to understand.

A good friend of ours was raised in a large Catholic family and is pretty certain that some of his cousins had been molested. The family had a history of sending their boys to a particular school in Wisconsin. They had been doing that for generations, and there are suspicions in the family that the uncle had had it happen to HIM as well.
