It is amazing that your response to child sexual abuse being widespread and knowingly covered up by bishops and priests - and that there is rampant homosexuality - is to point elsewhere, as if that makes it neutral. No, it is always sinful.
If it is sinful, clean your house, instead of trying to demean Christians that follow Christ, instead of Rome.
Why don’t we hear about it in Protestant churches?
At least the Catholic churches are out there in the news stories.
Or are the media at fault since they, like so many, dislike the Catholic Church, since the Catholic Church stands for the truth?
the Catholic church is well over two thousand years old....2,000 years is a VERY long time.....during those years there were probably hundreds of scandals within the church....why did they happen????because the church is made up of human beings....poor dolts just like us...I am nos sin free and neither are you. That having been said, the church itself, not individual members, is protected from error bu the Holy Spirrit.....the pope, bishops, priests, altar boys, nuns....etc. can err and be sinful.....the Church can't!!.
