This is irrelevant to the discussion, but the point is that a church allegedly holds a greater moral ideal as descended from an absolute moral authority. To deliberately try and hide these crimes is additionally immoral.
Its the hypocrisy the religion displays which is the cause of the mockery when the incidents of paedophilic priests goes beyond the statistical norm for a given society.
Thats the correlation there.. beyond the statistical norm.
You lose the moral authority, which is why objecting to homosexuals but not paedophilia is presented in this way.
Your church has no moral authority anymore, so how dare you try to dictate what is moral.
Anyway, back to the subject matter.....
