Anybody that was ever involved in this field that would point fingers at other organizations that have issues is nothing but a miserable hypocrite, looking to deflect attention away from where it should be focused relative to this problem:
I defend none of it...it's all terrible.
But it's like Bernie Madoff pointing fingers at dishonest con-artists with this stuff.
School system people pointing at Religious organizations for sexual abuse issues.
You could not be in a house made of thinner glass than to be in the public school system relative to adults sexually abusing children.
I don't even see the relevance of his post. Other than to deflect criticism.
YOU are the one deflecting.
You were part of the field that has the most offenders...but point toward others.
And even with the Catholics...it mostly occurred with those that were under the tutelage of others. In the Mission Schools, and with the Altar Boys.
What is it about those that formally teach others that makes them so prone to that kind of deviant behavior?
Seems to me it's actually more of a Teaching thing than a Religion thing.

No one should be sexually abusing children. Do we not have agreement here?

Of course...that's a obvious given.
Why would you even ask that?
I would never think of going on a general forum for Teachers & Education...and put up links about sexual abuse within that community, over and over and over again.
What makes people like that tick...how does one become so hateful and nasty toward anything that is not intrinsically harmful?
There are humans in this world who do bad, harmful things...and every organization is made up of humans, so that will inevitably occur in all of them. The larger the organization...the more bad people.
To single one out, and bust on it daily, for years (for a inevitable fault), takes a special kind of hate.

If you thought there was a problem within the school system where crimes against women and children were hidden you'd keep your mouth shut? No matter what you call it, I can't enable that behavior by not speaking up. You look like an enabler at best or trying to strike a pro sexual assault deal for yourself. I suspect you are not but don't have the ability to think through what you are saying.
