Freedom, my issue with the church is simply that they covered up these crimes. they still cover them up to this very day.

that is their choice, it is their responsibility.

the actual perps are responsible for their crimes. the church is responsible for covering up those crimes and putting future children at risk of being victims - as a matter of policy.

we have the crime and we have the policy for dealing with the crime.

the former is the perp's responsibility, the latter is the church's responsibility.

imho, this is an extremely reasonable view.

i'm sure some would attack the church in order to slander them. many of those same people would likely slander my religious beliefs - so i don't support them.

i do support protecting children - and the catholic church continues to fail at doing that, IMHO, by covering up criminal activity.
