    The priest said they don't know what to do with their predator priests. Well, why not report them to the police, have them prosecuted, stand before justice, and pay for their crimes in jail. Paedophilia is clearly, clearly a crime.

      Its a scam...these "Priests" are not Catholic...they are wolves in sheeps clothing. There was quite a bit of Congressional testimony on this group in the 40's. It started a little afterthe turn of the century when the communists said they would bring down the Catholic Church...they started infiltrating and taking over key positions to let people in Semnaries...they let in a ton of communists that started doing many things that are anti-Catholic. You see the culmination now with Francis...he's a self-admitted communist. Its all fairly well documented with what happened...similar thing happened with the Ivy league schools...hence they are all Marxist now.

It's the people closest to them they are taught to trust that are the real threat. Such as priests /pastors and Rabbis, lCamp counselors, scout leaders, teachers and school staff, neighbors , even family members and family friends!

And slaughtered 1500 innocent people for no reason other than they were Jews..,,,
      And wow!!! CNN has a longer segment on Catholics sick priests????
      Just odd our media who LOVES and defends adult men dressed as transgender woman as a teacher of 5 year olds, is a hero for teaching kids about gay sex and trans shit and they are clapping for that but Catholics are this ….

    I came across a certain man's testimony, his name is James Kawalya. He was taken to the Vatican to be trained to be one of the priests when he grows up at the age of 12. He said it's a church disgusing themselves as children of God, he said in reality it's a cult where you get to know, that indeed there's an entity called Satan. He said for 5 years the priests there continuously raped him that he lost his mind not to satisfy their urges but for some kinda of rituals. Then he was taken to a rehab where they started giving him hard drugs to lose his mind some more. It isn't just the Catholic Church, some other churches and other people from other religions abuse children and other people whilst hiding behind religion cause they know people trust them.

My mother never believed me that a priest abused me. She took it to her grave. I wouldn’t ever go back to a catholic church for any reason. Nothing could get me to go back in. I was an altar boy and I was sexually abused, the priest had me move Wine from the Rectory to the Church because that’s where they stored it was in the basement of the rectory where the priest lived, he stopped me on my second trip into the rectory before I got back into the church. I was in the passage way that connected the church to the rectory where the priests lived.

If little Johnny got abused by mr Jones, his baseball coach... the primary school will not be held accountable and they push it through to the school district administration who finally can wash their hands and little Johnny gets nothing.

      @@noinfo326 the elementary school I taught at we had seasonal coaches for softball (t ball), basketball, soccer and football. For both genders now I heard all the sports have to have teams. As for the indigenous/First Nations/American Indian communities. In New Mexico and Arizona it was the state that ran the schools - stole the kids and washed away their cultures. I was raised near a Pueblo reservation and have many friends whose parents were forced into those schools and they are on litigation with the federal government but the Interior department is stonewalling them.

      @@casadechris923 wow, I had never heard of that. I'll admit I was lazy and didn't see if your info was accurate. Thanks for letting me know and being so nice about it also.
      I used to live in Kamloops where that mass grave was located. Where approximately 215 Indigenous Children were found.
      I have been researching Indigenous Children for over 10 years. The day I read that article is the day I stopped believing in god.
      I just realized that my ex-husband was mete. I remember him telling me that 3 older siblings and himself were taken from their home)and he lived at the residential home until he was 15. He told me that his darker skin is from his father and he was French. SO many things finally clicked but he never told me he was molested but now I believe he was because of his strong hatred of priests and nuns.

      Honey, there are many politicians involved in pedophilia. The people at the highest level of governments are all involved. That's why predators don't serve lengthy sentences.

      They are being placed in other locations after accusations come out .It became such an issue that even the media couldn't cover it up. Heck even my baptist church I grew up in had a child predator issue to the point they hired one to watch over children with 0 background checks.
