The Catholic Churches in Europe are empty for a reason. The news media here tries to protect the Catholic Church by not reporting news stories like these but it's not working. The demise of the Catholic Church is being brought on by it's own clergy.

Yeah, ok, so have you formed some sort of activist group? Are you gonna get involved; go and fight "big C"? ...ok, sarcasm aside, does anyone have a point to make in regards to the pedophile priests, or can we move on to more pressing matters?

All the offenses you mentioned are condemned by scripture. For a religion that boasts to found itself on the scripture, it has a very poor track record for such. The real crimes started when they put more trust in the Popes rather than the Word of God.

Don't forget Judas!
If the Catholic Church didn't really belong to God, it would have disappeared 1900 years ago.

To be truly good at something one needs to know both side of any given situation. Suffer at the hands of hate and you'll know true love.
