    Default Catholic church blaming society for abuse.

    Study: Homosexuality, celibacy didn't cause abuse
    news.yahoo.com
    Researchers commissioned by the nation's Roman Catholic bishops to analyze the pattern of clergy sex abuse so dioceses could better identify offenders have concluded that homosexuality, celibacy and an all-male priesthood did not cause the scandal.

    hahaha wow, this guys seem to continue with their cover up of lies and now their telling us that society is the problem and not the catholic priests that have abused children for decades or centuries. They can tell us as many lies as they want, but we won't buy them.

    Lordy thats a joke. Sweep it under the carpet for decades, Move the offenders to another country so they can carry on abusing our kids,
    Then when they all become transparent because they forgot that our Kids become adults, GO INTO DENIAL. It was not me, it was everyone else. The priest from my diocese was arrested and given 6yrs in prison for abusing children 30yrs ago, he forgot that children grow up.

    How can you force someone to be a celibate, It is like trying to force someone to LOVE, it is impossible, Celibacy is very powerful when it comes from the heart and VOLINTARY.

    I was born and raised Catholic. I heard many stories. I am now a recovering Catholic I am embarrassed by their lack of responsibility for what they have done to so many families around the world. I feel that being a Catholic in my youth woke me up in the end, all I could feel was this oppressive control being shoved into my head. I went to Catholic Prep School and it was more of the same. Take Responsibility for what you have done!

    This was such a trigger for me when I posted this this morning, it ruined my whole day. When will the pain end, will it ever end?

    I believe them because they are the church and they are one with god and they know what they're talking about. The church is always right.

    The barriers of your belief will form the bars which imprison your mind.

    What difference does it make whether the church is responsible or society is responsible?

    The church has played a massive role n creating both!

    So either way... they're responsible! lol

If you are not ready for this FIRE, then find a 'New Age' sweetness and light, perpetually smiling teacher and learn to re-label your ego with spiritual sounding terms. But, stay away from people who practice REAL COMPASSION, because they will FRY YOUR ASS, my friend." ~ Ken Wilber
