Yet another person that fails spectacularly to see the scope of the problem. The problem is that the organization knowingly hid pedo priests on purpose. I bet you haven't even read a single page from the grand jury report yet just feel the itch to comment on homosexuality when the biggest problem is the systemic cover up by the church. Homosexuality can not be blamed for an entire organization trying to cover up evil. There are literally first hand accounts and scanned copies of letters going back and forth between bishops who were aware of serial, violent pedophiles who did things like rape children while punching, kicking and strangling them or raping kids so violently they got injured, had to be put on pain meds and died later on from the subsequent addiction. The higher ups and bishops via the letters in the grand jury report shifted them to other dioceses across the state of PA and even across country and pedo priests were allowed to continue to perform parish services or engage in activities for youth. And guess what happened....the priests raped again. Literally dozens of accounts of priests known to be serial rapists as early as the 80s, where shifted to other diocese using codespeak, and were released onto the public yet again where they continued to rape kids into the 90s and 00. The Church also refused to comply with authorities when they asked for documents on pedo priests because they were afraid of liability, plus they knew 100% that everyone would find out that the Church already knew of pedo priests yet tried to cover it up. The only reason the Church handed over documents to comply with law investigations only happened until the Church was threatened with the prospect that their insurance coverage would be dropped and they would have 0 legal protection.
So, failure to comply with the law trying to investigate the most heinous crimes imaginable, KNOWINGLY shifting pedo priests around that allowed them to leave a trail of raped kids where ever they went.....yeah, homosexuality is the only problem here. How can a MORAL authority who supposedly preaches the word of god be aware of horrendous evil within its ranks and do nothing about it except try to keep it covered up, which allowed even more victims to succomb to violent, pervse pedos?
I posted reports from people who are making a deep investigation into the whole affair. If you don't want to read it, I can't help you.
And I don't believe the act of homosexuality between two consenting adults is a sin.
The Bible was written by men trying to control people.
I'm very religious but I'm not buying what any organized religion has to sell.
It wasn't between two consenting adults. One was a gay bishop or superior and the abused was an underling. You know, what happens in the #me too movement. This is the #Catholic me too. Comply or be drummed out or demoted.
It’s those “ tabs”, historical institutional records that demonstrated passing the buck- transfer the accused to another institution rather than investigating and pursuing criminal charges.
"Church Militant has learned that a clandestine pipeline for homosexual seminarians was established in the 1990s and into the early 2000s where active gay men from Colombia, South America were being secretly funneled to U.S. seminaries.
Multiple seminarians have been in contact with us and want the entire story of the massive, massive crisis of homosexual predation by the clergy — especially in the seminaries — completely exposed."
No, boys were the main target, not girls. It's a homosexual problem but the church won't admit it and the problem won't be taken care of until they do.
The seminaries were the breeding ground for the abuse. It was like joining the love boat for a young man to enter. Throw young men with SSA attraction together in close quarters and see what happens.
Just curious, do you as much as educate yourself on issues before posting about your opinions?
