I brought the marriage thing up for one reason, now try and read this slowly so you will understand. The more married priest there are in the church the less pedophiles can get in the church to harm the children, thus limiting the harm that can be done and the more watchmen (married priest) there will be to protect them, especially is the married priest are overseeing the children. I'm not trying to be mean here, it's that you did not take time to see the difference married priest would make, it seemed to me all you wanted to do is criticize.
Unbelievable. You still don't get it and dive into absurdity by claiming that marriage will eliminate (or even lessen) the sexual abuse of children.
Child molestation is not a celibacy issue and it is not a religious issue; it is a sexaul deviant issue. The reason the Catholic church is getting rightfully bashed is because of the size of the institution and the evidence supporting the intentional cover-up of alleged abuse.
From the Insurance Journal:
Quote:
The three companies that insure the majority of Protestant churches in America say they typically receive upward of 260 reports each year of young people under 18 being sexually abused by clergy, church staff, volunteers or congregation members.
