I'm sure that if he had been caught molesting choirboys he would have been merely transferred, which is what usually happens.
The implication being that in the eyes of the catholic empire(sorry, church) sex with a child is a lesser crime than sex with a consenting woman.
Conclusion; the catholic hierarchy is a bunch of pedophiles looking out for each other.
This is silly ignorance. Grow up. It is certainly not a valid or sound argument. You atheist claim to be so concerned about reason, and truth, act like it. Thank you.
