Far be it for catholics to look tolerant or anything.

Was anybody expecting otherwise?

The takeaway from the study seemed to me to be this:  If you had to leave your child in the care of a stranger (which you should not do if at all possible), a woman is a better choice than a man.  And a gay man is a better choice than a heterosexual man.

I don't doubt it. It makes sense to me, of course, they are mentally disturbed.

I agree with you, and I'm sure you know I was just pointing out the evil hypocrisy of the catholic church, but anyways.. They seem to have a 'being gay is wrong' mentality. They fire someone for admitting he's gay, but when he rapes a boy they move him, so he gets to do it again. WTF!? It's almost like Deut 22:28-29. The man gets rewarded for the rape, besides the 50 sheckels part. The priest gets off the hook even easier. It's as if, he's rewarded for his actions. If the idiotic primitive catholic mentality would change slightly, they'd allow women priests, and they wouldn't have to move pedophiles around, they could just get rid of them, but who knows if that would help? or if they would even care enough to do so.. They just want to protect their image. They don't actually give a shit whose lives they destroy.

Really, it is a matter of public relations.  Being gay is not so much a problem for a priest.  But publicly coming out as gay is a problem.  It is the public image that matters.  This is why the church has hidden and protected child molesters.  They do not want the bad publicity, and so they have made great efforts to hide the problem.

As long as there is the appearance that they want, they are happy.  The reality of what is going on matters less to them.

Only in most cases it's not the strangers you should be a afraid of. The molesters usually are very close.

Yes.  A child is vastly more likely to be molested by someone who is known than by someone who is a stranger.  But the main point still applies.  The person who is most likely to molest the child identifies as a heterosexual man.  Women rarely sexually molest children.  Men who publicly identify as gay rarely molest children.  The typical child molester is a man who identifies as heterosexual.  Even the ones who molest boys.

And that is why one needs religion for "morality."  You don't get that perspective any other way.

Yeah, we godless atheists are the ones who have it backwards. Trying to protect the kids, and not caring what consenting adults to in private.

Yeah, you're right Chad, as long as they're not adults, then it's not considered homosexuality.. or rape apparently.

After reading the bible, I didn't find a decent reason to believe that that book of shit strongly disagreed with rape. In fact, I remember one instance where it seemed to reward the rapist and punish the victim. How moral.. Hail the merciful god!

It is against rape in as much as it's against damaging someone else's property. Meaning afterwards it expects you to pay a bride price and marry the girl, because the father isn't likely to be able to marry a non virgin off afterwards. The girl's feelings don't come under considerations. And I do say girl, because anyone old enough to be called a woman is likely betrothed, in which case the rapist and poor woman are both killed.

'Eduard' sounds like a really hot name.

Priest is lucky to keep the guy and lose the church.

'Eduard' also has the benefit of being flesh and blood real as opposed to the otherwise ethereal 'Jesus'.
 The granting of a pardon is an imputation of guilt, and the acceptance a confession of it.
