On 8/24/17 Billy Graham's grandson is shining a spotlight on sexual abuse in Protestant churches--a Scandle he says may be larger then that of the Catholic church.
I also read that you hear more about the Catholic Church since they have "deeper pockets".
Sorry can not seem to copy on mass on this I pad.
Seems like this abuse is everywhere. The comman thread seems to be men!

My beef with all Christian based organized religions,,, most say one thing, but do the complete opposite. Then they dare say they love God. BS, they love their deranged belief in a God,, but not My God. My God loves unconditionally those who except him, and condemn all who do ill to others. They have a special place in hell waiting for them.

What's wrong with the Catholic church? I don't have the time to type all that I have found wrong with it. I had the courage to turn my back on it at age 20. I had been subjected to 12 years of Catholic schools in the l940s and 1950s and was a confused kid at 18.
That church is still paternalistic, still ruled by money, and still attracting pedophiles to its priestly ranks.
All in the name of God. It is evil.

Ruby why were you confused? I was raised a Catholic and was not confused at 18. I had a wonderful priest at my Church who died too young. The nuns were a tad scary at religious classes.

Celibacy of it's priests save the Catholic Church very big money.
When a Church feels it is more important then people it is trying to save.It has lost it's way and will serve evil.

Didn't Jesus's disciples leave their families to follow him, priests do the same.

If celibacy is the problem then the priests would have affairs with women, not suddenly become a pedophile. If they are pedophiles as priests they were already pedophiles when they became priests.

NKat ~ My education was in Catholic schools taught by nuns.(12 years total) I had four years of an all-girl Catholic high school which left me totally unprepared for the outside world. I learned fear of God, fear of sin and fear of non Catholics. I did know the Catholic Catechism backwards and forwards. That is not a good basic education for going out into the world and working in a business office. (Think Mad Men - the TV series about offices in the 1950s and 1960s.)
Without going into detail, I'll say that religion is evil. I can see how it adversely affected my life. You and other posters I've met over the years seem to have had a good experience with the Catholic Church. I did not. I'll never change my opinion on this.

Ruby sounds like I was lucky not to go to a Catholic School. I was in one at first, but we moved and I went to public school.
Rj sounds like some men cannot think by themselves and are so influenced by a woman or are thinking by the wrong parts of their bodies!

NKat Men have thought with their small heads for thousands of years, and have let women use that to get what they want. Now the feminists think they get take over and demonize men for their natural sexual desires. There are millions of men that resent it, and will refuse to vote for a woman now. Many women like men being men, and don't like feminism either. The democrat party is in trouble this year because of it. There won't be a female POTUS for many many years now.

Nothing like spreading lies and false generalities about feminists, RJ.
"Feminists demonize men for their natural sexual desires?"
WTF!!! I can't believe you think that is true.
A feminist is a woman who believes in being treated equal to men in life. They want the same jobs for the same salaries.
"Millions of men resent this and will refuse to vote for a woman???"
How old are you? 95? You need to do some reading and find out what feminists have done over the last century. Without feminists, women would not have the vote. Without feminists, girls and women would not have sports teams. I could go on and on.
feminist [fem-uh-nist]
adjective, Sometimes, feministic 1. advocating social, political, legal, and economic rights for women equal to those of men. noun 2. an advocate of such rights.
