Sexual Abuse in Social Context: Clergy and other (Secular) Professionals.

Talk about whataboutism, but I did not expect anything honest from you.

The question is why does Catholic Church ignore sexual predator priests and lets them rape?



teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"
