Re: Pope Apologizes for Sexual Abuse
I don't know about the apology but it makes me angry that priests are zeroed in on. They aren't the only clergy types that have sexually molested children, they are just the largest target. I don't approve of their acts but I think it has been blown all out of proportion. Compared to the amount of children molested, priests make up a pretty small percentage I think. An easy way to get publicity and make lots of money. Who is going to sue a simple little nondenominational preacher for the same act? The Catholic church is perceived to have lots of money so they are a target. I am not the best Catholic to be sure but I don't enjoy all the bashing my church gets either. Most of the people I know who are Catholic are just as nice if not nicer than some from other religions, or those who aren't even religious for that matter.
