How is as angry as I am for the fact the these priests are still screwing children and screwing their lives and the church and the US are not acknolading it. All they do is send the relocate the priest so the priest can tell the next group of children that they are getting down on their knees in confession for g-d!!!

The Catholic Church, as any other very ancient institution is slow and very cautious in recognizing their mistakes.
Nevertheless, one thing is the institution and another the ideology behind the power on Earth.
Any abuse should be punished according with the laws in equal measure. I believe that exceptions or overreactions only make people angry and disappointed. Sure, relocating a priest that is proven to be an abuser without further investigation and judgment is totally inappropriate.
The following statement can be : Exist really the blind justice - anywhere - ??
As a catholic person I feel ashamed about any sort of power abuse from the people or the catholic institution.
Regardless this despicable issue I try to raise my kid according to the catholic ideology because I find that gives good examples of compassion, solidarity, sensitivity, protection and some drops of common sense to a child that is raised in this indifferent and cruel world.
Is a pity that the beautiful example of Christ gets so frequent damaged by the people that are supposedly under His service.

Agree - Save the children from any church. Religion has ruined this world - it is a barrier for free thinking and slows the development of brain. They are so narrow minded. I would read my kid a fairy tale when he is small, but I do not want him to believe that fairy tales and abide by it for the rest of my life - If you don't get this, I am referring to the fairy tales in the bible, Koran etc.

It's sad people with children still attend a church who puts and protects their faith over the innocence of children.

5 of the 9 US Supreme Court Justices, including the Chief Justice, are Catholics.
Do you seriously expect them to do anything against the pope?
Thanks to bible thumpers, the pope controls the US court system.
