He could have stopped it. He didn’t.

It matters not if you live a virtuous life for Christ, if.... minutes before leaving this world, you do little to stop a sexual beast from sodomizing boys.

You obviously don’t understand Christianity.

The great people are the courageous people.

In his last days, weeks, or few years.......Paterno was anything but a ......Lion.

He could have stopped what, exactly? Why was he supposed to see what ALL the state and local law enforcement agencies, ALL the child and welfare agencies, the entire town, the entire state wasn’t able to see and prevent?

You should read Jim Clemente’s (the leading child abuse expert in the country) portion of the King and Spalding Report sometime if you really want to learn about, and help prevent child abuse. Dumping on Joe Paterno because it seems like the thing to do might make some of you feel better about yourselves, but does nothing to help the cause of preventing child abuse.

Joe Paterno lived an exemplary and honorable life. That didn’t change. Ever.
