Women are really starting to come forward, from all over the world. It is about an abuse of power - not homosexuality. It is not new and the hierarchy have known and covered it up for a very long time. This is just the tip of the iceberg.
It IS ‘A Gay Thing!’
And those denying it are lying.
"McCarrick — a male — raped, assaulted, groped, and made advances on altar boys — males — and seminarians — males — for decades. Prolonged male on male sexual assault — that's gay. Do you think we are stupid? Then there is Cdl. Donald Wuerl, so beloved by the homo bar crowd in during his time in Pittsburgh, they actually nicknamed him "Donna." Last week, he just couldn't figure out if all this was a really big deal, or not. Nor could he figure out how to address it. And then he doesn't even appear to know what the it actually is."
Sorry Janelle, you do not get to blame the pedophilia problem in the Catholic Church on homosexuals. Homosexuals can be pedophiles. Heterosexuals can be pedophiles. The Catholic Church has both. Boys and girls have both been victimized.
"Priests were raping little boys and girls, and the men of God who were responsible for them not only did nothing; they hid it all.
Quote:
As the grand jurors note, priests and other Catholic leaders victimized boys and girls, teens and pre-pubescent children.
Some victims were plied with alcohol and groped or molested, the report says. Others were orally, vaginally or anally raped, according to the grand jurors.
Quote:
In the Greensburg diocese, a priest impregnated a 17-year-old, forged a pastor's signature on a marriage certificate and divorced the girl months later. According to the grand jury, the priest was allowed to stay in ministry by finding a "benevolent bishop."
Quote:
In Harrisburg, a priest abused five sisters from the same family and collected samples of their urine, pubic hair and menstrual blood.
Quote:
Also in Harrisburg, a priest raped a 7-year-old girl who was in the hospital after her tonsils were removed, according to the report.
Quote:
A woman said the abuse started when she was 18 months old.
Just as you like to demonize ALL abortion providers using Gosnell as an example, should we demonize ALL of the leaders in the Catholic Church because literally thousands of them are child abusers? Hmmmm?

It's getting there when a blind eye is turned to all of this.
Like I said in another thread like this, its no different than family, friends, neighbors, teachers, etc in the past that used to just roll their eyes or joke about the adult who is hooking up with underage kids, its the same exact thing, its people not reporting it, not viewing it was that serious, Im sure most of have experiences with these kinds of people...
I do for sure, My parents, many neighbors, teachers, etc, they all knew a classmate of mine was sleeping with a neighbor guy in his mid 20s, (she was 13/14), the most they did was joke about how the guy can not get a girl his own age, not a single one of them ever thought to do anything more, it just wasnt serious back in the 80s, 90s.

This has nothing to do with that. Priests take a vow of celibacy and that means NO SEX. It's not what sexual inclination are you. It's become a priest, you are celibate. You want sex don't become a priest.
It's also a "Catholic, Me Too" with this. Agree to have sex with your superior, you get promoted. You refuse, you get drummed out. Harvey Weinstein is having a problem with this now. They all need to drain the swamp.
Priests are in a position of trust
In reading the morning news I was impressed with a cruel and graphic nature of the accusations. the accused mode of operation was NOT of a child sleeping with a teacher, family member, neighbor but multiple under age sex partner(s) tied to a cross and abused.
"Catholic Me Too" what have we become?
