On Nov. 2, 2018, Louisiana-based Ruth Institute released a study, Is Catholic clergy sex abuse related to homosexual priests?.
The Ruth Institute was founded in 2008 by Dr. Jennifer Roback Morse, an economics-trained author and writer on marriage, family and human sexuality who was the spokesperson for Proposition 8, the California ballot measure defining marriage as a union of one man and one woman which was passed by voters but nixed by an activist judge. Far-left groups including the Human Rights Campaign, GLAAD, and Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC) have criticized the Ruth Institute’s stance against same-sex marriage and other LGBT causes. In Aug. 23, 2017, responding to being labeled a “hate group” by SPLC, the Ruth Institute said it “categorically condemns white supremacy, racism, Nazism, and all violent totalitarian political movements. People who cannot defend their positions using reason and evidence resort to name-calling to change the subject away from their anemic arguments. The ‘hate group’ label is a club such people invented to bludgeon their political opponents.”

Pedogate is not just a U.S. monstrosity. It’s an international horror from hell.
It’s not paedophilia. It’s homosexual priests preying on teen boys.
Right. But middle-age homos molesting adolescent boys isn’t pedophilia. For religion sanctioned pedophilia ask a muslim.
Actually the correct terms are ephebophilia and hebephilia which are attractions to teens and pre teens, which is a major part of the homersexual identity. Perversion simply leads to more perversion.
the greater the percentage of homosexual priests, the greater the number of child, mainly male, victims. While the correlation was lower among victims under age 8, it was still strong, at 0.77.
My bad. /Sarc
Most of the molested are teen boys.
Oh, whew.
That makes it better then, doesn't it?
After all, there's got to be some way for Catholics to defend their priests.
I’m not defending anyone. I’m saying the main problem is homosexual priests, and any solution requires purging them from the priesthood.
its amazing how many leftists (who hate Christianity anyway) will respond to me with “it has nothing to do with homosexuality.”
They have completely fatuous and unconsidered slogans which are usually fall into the categories of: priests can’t have sex, its about psychological power of the abuser, or white patriarchy.
The Catholic Church must come to grips with the idea that it must bust all queer priests completely out of the priesthood. That is the only cure for the Church. They better get started soon before they lose more people.
In an ideal world, they would be purged from polite society.
