This thread is for serious discussion of the scandal, not for vulgar Catholic bashing.

This entire topic of homos and pediphiles in the preisthood is utterly vulgar and makes we want to puke! Imagine if most of the Baptist seminary schools had live-in hookers in them and Jimmy Swaggart was a prominent leader? So much for the Infallible Church!

Don't preen yourself. The Baptist and other churches conceal their scandals because they are separate entities who cut deals with corrupt pastors and send them off to infect other flocks. With regard to gays, the mainline churches solve their problems by openly embracing homosexuality. The national Church of the Christian (Disciples of Christ) has just accepted same sex unions. The Presbyterians and even the Lutherans have gone the same route. The Episcopalian Church wears rose-colored garments every Sunday.

So much for the Infallible Church!

You're thinking of "impeccability." Dictionaries are available on-line.

Jimmy Swaggart was a prominent leader?

WAS?

Last time I looked he was hangin in there pretty strong. Preachin, cryin, singin, shoutin, beggin. Every bit the cousin of Jerry Lee Lewis (at least an honest entertainer).

So much for protestant superiority.
