“I believe that the degree of loss within Catholicism ties directly to defending pedophiles”
The problem is not pedophiles. The problem is ordinary, garden-variety homosexuals. The evildoers advance the notion of rampant pedophilia to take the heat off themselves.
“Canonizing JP2 was a bad idea...JP2 should have used papal authority to clean out the perverts.”
Yes. The floor of Hell is paved with the skulls of bad bishops.
“Overall, it’s a self made mess.”
Who is the “self” that made it? Faggot priests? Lay people who neglected to lay hands upon pervert priests and throw them out of the churches and into the gutter?
Aside from Satan and those who serve him, who is to blame?
Your perception is directly counter to people with whom I know directly effected by the pedophiles. You are claimingmin direct contradiction to my experience that the perception of rampant pedophilia was created by ordinary run of the mill homosexuals (who are also part of the problem) and that is simply untrue. My perception of rampant pedophilia comes from knowing bot men and women who were affected by pedophiles within the Catholic Church - some of whom had an audience with JP2 out of which nothing came. Try again.
Not so because if they had kept to being normal garden variety homosexuals and not gone after minors, nothing would have changed and nobody would know.
They're going after minors., they are pedophiles, like it or not, and your church is rife with them and refusing to address the issue.
