>“90 percent of the nearly 400 sexual abuse victims he are boys, and three quarters of them are post-pubescent.”

Once again, the issue is homosexuality, not pedophilia. Pedos are just a sect of sodomites.

You papists have a homo problem, pedos are just a symptom.

Which ties into a priest shortage, because the Church takes in homosexuals because this is all they have available.

"St. Peter Damian confronted the evils of simony, clerical

concubinage and the sexual immorality of monks and clergy, particularly the sodomising of young boys and adolescents (Anderson 2004). He found that the Church’s leadership demonstrated an unwillingness to address the problem, with the bishops more motivated by a shortage of priests able to celebrate the parish Eucharists."

This is 1054 A.D., mind you. Priest shortages seem to be casual for an excess of homosexuals in the priest-hood and their lechery.

>Disproving Catholic sex abuse

first of all you are a moron. Second of all no one is arguing all priests bug boys. People only point out that its pretty disingenious to pose as the guardians of truth and morality and tolerate pedo priests. There are many cases where a case of pedophilia was covered up and the priest got a slap on the wrist.

Hypocrisy. Google its definition.

Clerical celibacy is a disaster and must end. 1 Tim 3.

>>662544

Clerical celibacy isn't the issue, the issue is the lack of priests.

Protip You can't

But people ignore the fact that his happens in almost any organisation. Like a month ago, there were two cases of rape in a transgender and female rights advocacy group in Czech Republic, which has an agenda of attacking the Church for hypocrisy. Do you know what happened? No charges were pressed and the group claimed that they want to deal with it "within the community''. They acted exactly the same way any other community would. Therefore, this is not a problem of the Church but problem of human nature as such. So anybody condemning the whole church based on these cases can condemn each and every organisation, including those promoting feminism and gender rights.

I would say that it depends on the individual, because Paul wasn't wrong about celibacy either.

>>662794

Sure, but how many of those organizations are a sovereign country and how many of those organizations cover up the abuse to the extent that the Catholic Church does?

The fact of the matter is that the Catholic Church claims to be better than everyone else, maybe they should act like it and stop protecting it's faggot clergymen.

Easy: just stop molesting them.

And what is that extent in precise terms?

>The fact of the matter is that the Catholic Church claims to be better than everyone else,

Where does she claim this?
