LOL! The gays were the problem in the Catholic Church. They were the one's doing all the child molestation. But you knew that didn't you? The world knows it evn if the gay community tries to hide it. Gays always have the scandals, not that there is any point debating it with a gay.


Oh wait, gays don't see what they do as scandalous, just the rest of the world.

Thanks for pointing out that all of the catholic priests were 100% heterosexual. They chose to take advantage of boys because it was easy prey. It has nothing to do with being gay. And none of the priests admitted to being gays. We all know from history that Christians have been nothing but trouble. Need I remind of the inquisition and the genocide of the native Americans...all in the name of Jesus. Thanks for agreeing with me.

I agree. The Catholic Church should never have allowed Republicans into the fold.

Nope. You are wrong...and showing your ignorance. Once again.

Report: Homosexuality No Factor in Abusive Priests
"Bishop-commissioned report finds no evidence so far that gay priests are more likely to abuse"

And a more general article on dispelling myths about child molestation:
Facts About Homosexuality and Child Molestation

A Study of almost 4000 convicted child molestors shows that the vast majority of child molestors identify as heterosexual, are married, have children and are relgious.

The young man involved is brave and should be commended. I'm sure he will get the heck away from that narrow minded little family which is filled with fear and ignorance.

I don't agree with the parents kicking him out.

They probably did it because they were worried about what others would think, & I think that's pretty selfish of them.

IMO any person who allows their hate for something be greater than the love for their child is not a parent and is themselves an abomination.
