The Church leaders should be held criminally responsible along with the pedophiles. If they would have done the right thing and kicked out the abusers and reported them, a lot of kids wouldn't have been abused.

[@asifmetal666]

70 years of abuse!!

[@mariahyohannes]

They were abusers themselves.

Disgusting

[@skelkankaos]

The church cares more about its reputation than about the safety of othets. Even referring to thousands of children's lives being ruined as "the shame of the church" is so telling

Governor Keating is probably the last time I’ve been proud of a politician from my home state of Oklahoma.
The clowns we have in politics today are embarrassing, unhinged fundamentalists who make me cringe every time we are in the national spotlight.

Religion...... Nah I'm good, I prefer to think for myself

[@danicaguan1870]

this goes to show that just because one is holy, it doesn't prove their innocence. and there is no excuse for this as this was all recent, only having been at least 20-30 years ago.

Pedo abusers are disgusting & depraved. Suffer the little children indeed… RIP All SA victims who have taken their lives and/or are still suffering wrecked lives due to this horrific abuse. May the abusers be jailed .

[@timgreen2426]

My my my....how 2020 has brought a whole new hind sight to our dirty corrupt world

[@jlynnb82]

All denominations handle sex abuse horribly

[@LanaVentus]

First time I went to a Catholic Church after being baptized at a non denom Christian church it just felt wrong. My fiancé is a catholic and I’m a Christian and he says there the same thing I’m like hell no. Quite literally.

[@missmelodies52]

Don't get it twisted. I know plenty of examples of sexual abuse in evangelical and Protestant churches.

[@jenniferr9624]

I left religion completely. It is poison.

[@canipeasu]

The three dislikes are priest

[@ccorreialoureiro]

Desgusting

[@juicyjules7409]
