Their church protects them and scares the kids into not pressing charges.

This question was answered last week (Best Answer to me! :) but I'll tell you again .... the pope (then bishop Ratzinger) signed a paper in 1972 that said if anyone who is molested tries to press charges, they will be kicked out of the church. To a catholic, this means you will burn in hell. There are many other rules that they use to make sure that no one is allowed to say anything bad about the catholic church. I guess they basically think that priests are more important than kids - the b*****ds.

A lot of them do. But usually, the church to avoid any embarrassment just settle with the victims and their families and reassign the priests somewhere else. You can not blame the priests totally though, because they are also humans. And to be advocated celibacy on is difficult and it's against human nature.

You'll notice that the Catholic priests are the only ones who go that route, well the catholic church still is in control of a lot of government, that is why.

Some do, a rare few. For the most part the Catholic church has tried to hid them and protect them for the sake of the reputation of the church. Idiots. . . ..

That is an excellent question. Now I am upset...I thought they DID!!!! Maybe because of their ties to the Kennedy family. The criminals in that family never go to jail,either.

Good question. I guess many of them take sancutary in their church like criminals used to do. But it's getting harder for them to wimp out.
The Law will go in and get them to arrest them now.

they should be beaten to death with the cross.then they should be revived and nursed back to health.then. take that same bloody cross bend them over and ask them how theyre gonna feel.
it would be a matter of time untill someone got access to them and killed them in prison.they should not get that far.

Some of them do, and as Catholic, I think they should be punished as any ordinary man.
Whatsoever, they can trick children easier than others, as saying "If you tell God might punish you, blah, blah", so, they get off easily because children won't tell.

Why don't drug dealers ever get caught? Why don't gang members ever get stopped robbing and beating up people? Why don't illegal aliens ever get deported?
They do, when prosecuted with adequate evidence.
