Sort of odd for an organization that only does good, isn't it?

If these pedophiles were really No True Christians, as many have said here, and I'm sure are lining up to do so now, then I wonder why the church was so desperate to keep news of them off the radar? I mean, "No True Christian" is such a compelling argument, why wouldn't they just use that? Thinking

Also, I think this story goes in the running for the coveted "most inappropriate bible verse for the context" award.

I've just been reading this.

No real shocker, unfortunately.

I don't think this surprises anyone. Heck, fundamentalist Protestants (which I once was) often question whether Catholics are Christians in the first place.
