    Almost as if Pedophilia and Pederasty was built in to the Catholic Church as accepted practice for the last 2 thousand years, or something. If it were any other organization, it would have been shuttered, and banned from the United States a very long time ago. The fact The Catholic Church is still allowed to have churches in the US shows just how very little we care about the welfare of children, no matter what we tell each other, this lack of action speaks so loudly on it’s own.

      Good luck arguing in court the banning of a religious organization. Plus the catholic church has money and we all know money talks, bullshit (in this case bullshit is apparently kid diddling) walks.

        As much as I hate it, and is why I still refuse to volunteer- In this part of Indiana, if the Catholic church vanished, so would all of the things around here life food banks and women’s shelters. It’s really awful.
