Wow, I remember saying to you, this is why I couldn’t be religious anymore. I wasn’t so blunt and just said “child abuse”. I would like to say this stuff is isolated, but unfortunately it runs rampant. As in my parish we had a kid diddler(almost fell out of my chair when I read that!!) His name was brother Bob and my Mom even caught him in the act inappropriately touching my friend when they were wrestling around. She told me and even ask if anything like this happened to me. Also remember when they would just cover it all up? Once they found out a priest was diddling they would just transfer him, as opposed to turning them over to the authorities.
So I have to question your friend the priest and anyone who still goes or gives money to the church. Why are you supporting and or working for a pedophilia network? Doesn’t take a genius to know this stuff runs rampant, heck just a few years back the number 2 guy to the pope was caught with child porn, and a huge collection at that. For these people to say well we want to change it. To me that’s like joining the military for peace. Just ain’t gonna happen.
I would love to believe the conspiracies, that these men are just Satanist, trying to give the ultimate FU to God by doing this, especially if it happens in the church. Idk though, maybe it’s jut sick men and they flock to the church because it’s known to be accepted. That’s why I can’t go to church or even be religious, not that I don’t believe in a higher power. More of the fact that I can’t be told I’m being a sinner or given punishment for something simple like saying G dam. When the guy is probably diddling kids.
Idk how to even end this rant! This stuff gets me so mad. I guess like anything in life take the good things a learned and heck even the bad( so I can make sure it doesn’t happen to my kids) and move on.

The constant cover ups and transfers to a new parish just enabled the situation to continue for so long. Embarrassing and disgusting.
Crazy that this happened so close to you as well. Brother Bob is scum and I hope he’s no longer in a position of power over kids. Actually hope he’s dead. Lol
I get what you are saying and for the most part agree but I will say that I do have deeply religious friends or family that feel as though they are doing the right thing by being a part of the religious machine. I have my good friend who has been kind enough to answer here already and I know he’s a wonderful amazing person, who is deeply connected to “God”. He just wants to make this world a better place.
I guess my problem is this...I hate shady cops but I also hate shady ass good cops that cover for the shit ones. Fuck it! Be the rat. If it gets the racist scumbag who is a loose cannon out of a position of power...good. He shouldn’t be there anyway. That’s my problem with cops. Bot enough speak out. They protect one another even when absolutely positively wrong. Now switch that with priests.
None of them speak out publicly about this. You want to earn the respect of the public back? Then clean house and out the scum. That’s just not happening and until it does on a major level, I don’t think public perception will change.

Yea, there are a lot of good people in the Catholic Church. My Mom was one of those people, even after what she had seen. She had faith and would try to do the best she could to make the world a better place.
Probably my biggest problem, is why can’t people see the way I see things and just walk away. That if they are not cleaning house, the whole thing need to be destroyed because it is evil. Some people really need it though, I guess.
Yea good cops covering for bad cops is a tough position to be in. Life’s hard, it’s hard to figure out what you want to do. So you decide to help the public and be a police man. Turns out the department is a bunch of crooked cops, speak out and maybe lose your job, get black balled? 🤔 pretty sure I’m describing a movie I’ve see on Netflix. 😂😂 Basically what I’m trying to say is that it’s tough to go against the grain. Fix the system, no one really starts out thinking those things. It’s easy for me now, but I’m older and wiser.
So it’s easy to go along or not call stuff out, but if we are ever want to make things better, someone’s gonna have to!!
