We have a friend who is 59 and was quite wild in his younger days. He was molested by a priest at the age of 7 and kept the secret till the age of 43. He has since hated both the church and authority in general. He has not come forward publicly and will not. The deadline for bringing charges against pedophiles is 6 yrs in Maine.

In his own words (and I agree) the church has covered up for these perverts for way too long. "It's about time!"

Yesterday on the Michael Savage Show they were taking calls with the question "Why are so many homosexuals attracted into the priesthood?" Do "freepers" have any idea?

"Why are so many homosexuals attracted into the priesthood?"

Same reason they're attracted to the public schools, the Boy Scouts, community theatre programs, youth sports leagues, and protestant churches. It's where the boys are. (Think of Willie Sutton and banks.) The problem is homosexual pederasts. Any "reporter" who isn't willing to come out and say that isn't telling you the truth.

As a Roman Catholic, I am sincerely sorry for the abuse of your friend by a Catholic priest.

I hope the scandals will result in a purer, holier and wiser Church, with no perverts among her clergy.

"Why are so many homosexuals attracted into the priesthood?"

Because it's a good place to be if you don't want to tell your father that you're gay or tell your mother why you're not married.
