Compared to the size of the Catholic Church, these incidents appeared with a tiny fraction of the clergy. Like one thousandth of a percentage.


Just the known cases are much more than that, and everyone knows it. The size of the Catholic church is not a positive in this tragedy. Not only because of the sheer numbers of lives and families destroyed, but also in the fact that having this happen in so many places around the world, with it being suppressed and covered up around the world for decades, maybe even centuries, more than implicates the layer upon layer of bureaucracy that is the Catholic church, right up to the Pope.

While it is indeed wrong and some in the church did not react to it correctly (and frankly tried to cover it up), it doesn’t delegitimize the entire organization.


So the church is bigger and more important than several hundred thousand children being abused, having their childhood and lives destroyed, destroying their families, and affecting every relationship they have for the rest of their lives. You don't think that is one of the most indecent things a person could say about this situation?

This thread is about another major Protestant denomination normalizing a new theology that accepts Homosexual sexual activity as Holy and Blessed by Jesus Christ Himself.

There is no need to Hi-Jack this thread with other unrelated topics involving the Roman Catholic Church. Indeed, such tactics are known as Diversionary Tactics. If you are trying to divert the attention away from what Protestantism is becoming, then, you are advancing the agenda of the New Reformers who are re-writing Protestant Christian teaching on Gay Male Sex and other Gay Sex.

Are you trying to advance the agenda of these sexual deviants?

There's no need to Hi Jack this thread.

Where are you getting these numbers from?

It’s a fact that the same percentage of abuse of children has occurred in Protestant churches, as a poster told you previously.

Are we supposed to give up on Christianity if that’s the case? Your argument would be leading to this conclusion.
