Didn't like the article. I am sick and tired of the word "pedophilia" - this article used the word exclusively and never used the word "homosexual" which is what the problem is.

The problem is both ---I don't think there should be a lowering of age of consent for children. Any adult preying on a child under 18 should be sent to prison ---heterosexual or homosexual. A lot of what has gone on with these priests is exactly like the case of Michael Jackson who molested a teenaged boy and he's not in prison for it ---I question why the parents seem willing to take bribes to stay quiet and didn't prosecute these men.

You have raised an interesting point which the church has been dealing with. Although there has been sexual abuse, there is also bribery by some of the accusers. This is a far greater crime to those who never harmed anyone.
