Thus you are a fool. Willing to judge the lot?
Are we all supporters of pedophilia? Because it is what you are implying. Go ahead, join yourself to bigots and prejudice. How much you are willing to cry anti-semitism should someone say that all Jews are greedy, but willing to stand up and point fingers at me and insinuate support of pedophilia. Truly, as AgeofKnowledge put up, anti-Catholicism is one of the last acceptable prejudices.
Matthew 5:22 NASB
"But I say to you that everyone who is angry with his brother shall be guilty before the court; and whoever says to his brother, 'You good-for-nothing,' shall be guilty before the supreme court; and whoever says, 'You fool,' shall be guilty enough to go into the fiery hell.
Mortal Sins: Sex, Crime, and the Era of Catholic Scandal, by Michael D'Antonio (St. Martin's/Dunne 2013). ISBN 978-0-312-59489-3.
Read review
Pulitzer Prize–winning journo D’Antonio (Atomic Harvest) pens what will be widely regarded as the definitive history of the Catholic Church’s “most severe crisis since the Reformation”:
the revelations of endemic sexual abuse of minors by priests in the United States and Europe. Employing his considerable gift for sifting through mountains of facts, the author carves out a coherent and enthralling narrative, and brings the long-running tragedy to life by focusing on the handful of individuals responsible for bravely exposing the pain and horror of the abused children. In 1984,
American priest Thomas Doyle learned of a lawsuit brought by parents of a victim, and was deeply troubled by his superiors’ callous nonchalance toward the suit, and more alarmingly, toward the suffering child. (
When Doyle asked a monsignor, “What are you doing for the boys?,” he responded, “As far as I know, nothing.”) Along with plaintiffs’ attorney Jeffrey Anderson, Doyle and a few others worked tirelessly to get the church, the media, and the public to pay attention; their persistence eventually paid off. D’Antonio peoples his reportage with fully realized individuals, and their plight—not to mention the stakes—
makes for feverish reading.

Crosses: Portraits of Clergy Abuse, by Carmine Galasso, ISBN: 978-1-904563-59-4.
Accompanying the words are black and white portraits of the survivors today, in places that for them echo where they are now, or where they were then.
Each has a different story to tell, a unique pattern of abuse, though they all share certain similarities. A certain grooming by the perpetrator, a blind trust of the parents in this person to look after their child both spiritually and in all ways their welfare, all systematically overruled by the one person who a community put their faith in.

Clergy Sex Abuse Litigation: Survivors Seeking Justice, by Jennifer M. Balboni, (First Forum Press, 2011), ISBN: 978-1-935049-37-1
Why did victims of Catholic clergy sexual abuse wait so long to come forward, and what did their recourse to the courts finally achieve?
Jennifer Balboni explores the experiences of clergy sex abuse survivors who sought justice through the court system, highlighting the promise and shortfalls of civil litigation in providing justice. Additional information.
and the list goes on and on.......
There are volumes of evidence that prove the RCC is the biggest perpetrator of criminal sexual child abuse in the history of humanity. Trying to deflect and call those who expose the disgusting sexual crimes of the RCC's priests against the children of humanity bigoted and prejudiced is very telling of their lack of remorse and responsibility to bring the pedophiles within it's walls to justice and shows that they not only support pedophiles but that they will attack all who expose their disgusting deeds.
Perhaps the protectors and supporters of pedophiles will also label the global
Survivors Network of those Abused by Priests as being bigoted and prejudice as well.......This will not be swept under the rug and will never go away and no matter how much
suggestive disassociation the
Roman Catholic Church attempts to deploy against men who expose their attempt to
cover up the
evidence it will not go away.......ever!

but whoever causes one of these little ones who believe in Me to stumble, it would be better for him to have a heavy millstone hung around his neck, and to be drowned in the depth of the sea.
