It’s been a rough year for the Catholic church. As more and more scandals concerning the covering up of sexual molestation of children pour into the media, we get this story from Charlotte, NC.
Perhaps the Church should stay silent, like they have on the proposed Ugandan legislation, even though other religions have thrown in their opposition to such a measure?
I think I’ve made my disdain for the Catholic Church well known; if not, then the following video should make them very clear.
(Warning: Extremely Not-Safe-For-Work, or a Catholic Mass)
Anyone who knowingly shields a pedophile from prosecution is a monster. Even if it’s done for “humanitarian” reasons, such as the perpetrator’s advanced age, or promises to remove themselves from working with children. The damage that the pedophile has done is permanent; a small measure of healing may be possible from seeing their molester face punishment.
Hint to Ratzinger: Throwing money at a problem rarely makes it go away. And it tends to make you look like a buffoon when everything’s said and done. Check out Mark 11:15. Perhaps Jesus himself should pay a visit to the Vatican and throw out those people who would give money to pay for the crimes done to these children?
