The defence of the organisation part is what really gets to me. If I were a practicing Catholic or whatever I'd be inclined to lobbying the church to come clean about their cover ups and cut out the cancerous parts. It seems pretty clear that there's still a significant portion of people in power who would face consequences for the knowledge of issues and potentially the part they played in hiding the wrongdoers.Damn. I leave this thread for a week or two and come back to peado accusations being thrown about.
As Hacky said ... I think you're taking it a little too far with this.
I've had the greatest of luck to have had some wonderful Christian priests in my life who are wonderful examples of human beings. They live God through their actions where they're kind, non-judgemental, open to communication and just generally cool people to talk with.
The issue why people bring up paedophilia when it's connected to the Church is just the sheer magnitude of how many there are within the organisation. It can't be debated. It's a fact. This isn't limited to Paris. Or Australia. Or any other country. It's happened everywhere.
How can people honestly defend an institution that's allowed this to go on for so many year? If I were religious I'd be furious as that's not what religion is about, so I'd be trying to root out all of the cancers asap.
It comes across that your devotion to the lord means you feel you have to paint over the facts, and defend them. I personally think a better approach would be to take the @ASSASSIN route and openly call out the c*nts and acknowledge the problem.
Each to their own though but trying to paint another poster on here as a paedo is a little too much imo
More than anything, I feel a bit of pity for people that try to defend something that clearly should be exposed. Loyalty is admirable, but blind loyalty isn't.
