Yeah, I've heard the story and been rather patient with you.

What does any of the Seton Hall story have to do with Myers, who seems to have been around 700 miles away at the time?

And you haven't answered my question: did you expect Myers to KNOW ALL and ACT INSTANTLY in the cases of "allegations" (even if accurate, somewhat old) against priests???

You pointed out that my sons haven't been molested. I was pointing out that they are among the lucky ones in my area of New Jersey. There have been homosexual molester priests in our local church, in the next town's local church, in virtually all of the local Catholic high schools around here.

Look, I don't know the specifics about Myers, nor have I claimed to. But given that a great, great many of the bishops in our country have been involved in shuffling homosexual molestor priests from parish to parish (those who have not actually had to resign from molesting boys themselves), and given that very, very few took immediate action when they found out about such (i.e., put the welfare of kids last), I would not be at all surprised if Myers did the same. And yes, I DO expect bishops to act instantly to take suspected molesters away from children. They have rarely if ever done so. Their track record is evil and deplorable. As for Myers, I hope that he is guiltless. But of course, we've been lied to so many times by the Church that I really don't believe anything it tells me in regard to this matter.
