if i thought my son were being abused, i would call the police...Agreed.
what is wrong with people that they dont know how to do anything for themselves?.. again, people need to grow up and quit expecting to be hand held...
Well, let me introduce you to this cult called Mormonism. The victim's family was Mormon...and they trusted that their leaders would take care of it...which, of course, then, is simply what happens when you trust cult leaders and become such gullible followers.
i dont get why it was the churchs responsibility to call...
This isn't at all at odds with your statement that it's also a parent's responsibility -- if for no other reason than once the Mormon church leaders found out about this from the victim's perspective, it was obligated BY LAW to contact the authorities. [So-called "clergy privilege" to opt out of reporting doesn't apply when sources other than the perp come forward]
Besides, besides the compulsion of law, there is such a thing as moral compulsion -- you know, like preventing this predator from continuing to prey on a minor for the next year until the family did finally get around to calling the authorities!

My uncles have dwindled down to 2 as well...a clear reminder of mortality and our short stay on the planet...a prayer for your uncle...looks like the RM doesn't think I'm contributing anything to the anti-Mormon threads, so I'll limit my contribution to PMs urging Mormons to avoid the flamebait and let these threads continue to devolve into backslapping congratulatory we showed 'dem Mormons feel-good fests.
I still feel that these threads do no good for the conservative cause, but hey, what can ya do? Walter Martin lives !! ... all the best...magritte

Re 102:
And when they arose early on the morrow morning, behold, Dagon was fallen upon his face to the ground before the ark of the LORD; and the head of Dagon and both the palms of his hands were cut off upon the threshold; only the stump of Dagon was left to him.

I'll limit my contribution to PMs urging Mormons to avoid the flamebait LOL...as if there isn't already a busy little network doing just that, and it isn't dependent on individuals like you when headquarters in SLC has already sent out the order. Your FR replacement handle has already been set up, I bet.
There'll always be a few FReepers who do the bidding for them under the "I'm not a mormon but my mormon friend-neighbor-teacher is just the nicest-kindest-(and lately,-most-patriotic conservative) in the whole wide world." disguise.
We won't miss the ones who can only gnash their virtual teeth while spewing vitriol in an attempt to make FR a proselytizing tool for the mormon church which has been the practice for several years.

Your FR replacement handle has already been set up, I bet.Sorry to butt in, but that is really the way I've been feeling for several years. Rush calls them Seminar Callers. I call them Mormon Missionaries.

“....looks like the RM doesn’t think I’m contributing anything to the anti-Mormon threads...”
Or contribute- I’m all for facts, evidence... And logic. If something is true, it can withstand any challenge.

Interesting. that is a combination I have never tried. I like tequila straight up with some salt. Now on a warm summer afternoon I love a gin and tonic.

Uh...
Let's not be confusing what the LAW says to the CHURCH with what a Parent WOULD/SHOULD do.
