I can't wrap my head around the correlation between Catholicism and pedophelia.
Religious man blows up building. Safe bet he's a Muslim
Religious man molests children. Safe bet he's a Catholic. What gives here?

Just saw that on fb a while ago.
Catholic Church really needs to do something about this.

I know it's been going on for centuries. I'm asking why.

Well, there's better than a 1 in 10 chance that any priest you know is fricking little boys and girls so this shouldn't be surprising. What's surprising is that it wasn't covered up by the church.

He was a priest in Kaplan for a while. My friend couldn't stand him. I can see why now. She has good judgement in people.

To say he is a sick bastard would be a huge understatement

I can. I think it has a lot to do with not letting the priests marry. It attracts a certain type of person that doesn't want to ever have a family and reproduce.

Who knows, they might have known and just shuffled him around to a few places.

Aren't priests suppose to abstain from sex?
Could be wrong but I think I've heard that.
All they see are little choir boys all day. Guess that fricks you up.

I know a guy that used to be a priest, he matter of factly says that almost all priests are either alkys or pedos, and in many cases, both

Protestant preachers are just as likely to be arrested for things like this. You just don't hear about it.

While you aren't being unfair, based on the scandals and the proof that not only was this happening, over and over, that the church was willfully moving priests around, giving them all fresh hunting ground - there is also quite a bit going on with protestant youth pastors.
I'm Christian, not particularly "religious" but I think that churches are an important part of and source of strength for our society. But, we put these sexually repressed clergymen in positions of authority over our children, with little to no oversight or commonsense that secular youth groups (BSA had their scandals, too, but worked hard to repair that image, IMHO) seem to have in abundance, and then get shocked when a percentage of them cross the line into criminal deviancy and preying on young people.
And these crimes are as bad as they get - we know that a certain percentage of victims will grow up to become abusers of other children, thus perpetuating the cycle - in a horrific process by which the molesters "reproduce."
The moral of the story - take care of your own - no one else is likely to, and no one else can be counted on to.
