Re: 'Paedophilia not criminal condition' says Durban cardinal
THIS STATEMENT from the church who declares birth control a sin, sex outside of marriage as being adultery. Sex with anyone but your married spouse is (according to them) adultery. Gay sex is an "abomination" before GOD! And gays should be killed. But old men who have sex with little boys and girls who haven't even reached puberty yet - that okay because it's an "illness". Like a head cold??

Funny how the standards are so impossibly high for everyone else, and when it comes to a disease that affects millions upon millions of Catholic Priests throughout their lives - then it suddenly becomes an "illness" The stomach-turning hypocrisy and utter self-serving bullshit of that statement is beyond belief. WHAT THE HELL is wrong with this man? Is this just the generations of ingrained covering up for pedophile priests to the point where this Cardinal actually believes what he's saying? Oh I hope not.

You can reason with a liar and convince a hypocrite. But you cannot reason or change the mind of a delusional personn. Not ever!
 Quoting: MarkinAZ


It's because so many powerful people are involved and not just the priest.

I can only find comfort knowing God has a special place for people like this.

I also believe if you do not stand against it you are just as guilty.

Typical cock sucker.

Catholicism's men are like beasts. Taking away the Christ importance and placing it on the virgin mary and applied idolotry attracts obstacles to true consciousness.

His is actually the voice of reason, and it is just, there are pedophiles who don't act on their disordered impulses, and never commit a crime.
They should not be classed as criminals, if they don't commit crime.

Re: 'Paedophilia not criminal condition' says Durban cardinal
There is no more pedopilia in the Catholic Church than any other denomination.

I love the way Cathloic bashers try to pretend there is. Facts say otherwise.

Excerpt:

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.

The figures offer a glimpse into what has long been an extremely difficult phenomenon to pin down -- the frequency of sex abuse in Protestant congregations.

Religious groups and victims' supporters have been interested in the figure ever since the Roman Catholic sex abuse crisis hit five years ago. The church has revealed that there have been 13,000 credible accusations against Catholic clerics since 1950 -- 228 a year.

 Quoting: Bluebird


228 for the US church or for the whole world?

First of all, we are talking about a tiny minority of priests,
0.3% to be exact.

If they have been convicted of a crime, they would be in prison, or placed however the authorities dictated.
The church complies with civil law.
If they have been released, they would need to be treated humanely.

In any case, no matter what 'inclination' a person has, they choose to act upon it or not. Actions are choices.
 Quoting: Shoot straight Johnny


The people who are unable to control themselves should be removed from society. If its not a criminal condition then it is a disease which requires isolation. This guy:


[link to www.kgw.com]


The state sex offender registry lists Brown as a predatory sex offender known to target children ages 2 to 8. He was on parole for abusing children when the attack in Wendy's occurred.

Court records showed in the early 1990s, Brown was charged with 43 counts, including attempted murder and rape, in connection with a series of sexual assaults against children in Douglas County. Prosecutors said he exposed several children to HIV through sexual contact but those charges were dropped in the plea deal.

 Quoting: zenobiaphobia


Do agree whether its a condition or choice that people like that should still be removed from society though.

Those figures are for churches insured in the U.S. but obviously you are missing the point. The instances of pedophilia are no greater in the RCC than other denominations or the population at large.

It just isn't something peculiar to or more prevalent in the Catholic Church.

And I have always just had to wonder at people who report a crime to the person's employer instead of the police in the first place. Seems they are more about money than justice.
One of the most important aspects of conspiracy theories is being able to discern when there isn't one.

Oh yeah, like you'd understand anyway.

The church complies with civil law.
 Quoting: K.Kool


Many claim it did not, because it did not promptly report all cases of abuse to the proper authorities. Thus this lawsuit:




The pope never disclosed what the influential priest had done wrong. Only later was it confirmed that Maciel had molested seminarians and fathered at least three children. In Ireland, where church leaders had shielded guilty clerics from prosecution for decades, the Vatican during Benedict’s pontificate refused or ignored repeated requests from state investigators for access to its case files.

We have no way of knowing what % of priests are/were active abusers, only an estimate of those who got caught.

I think people are naturally born straight. Some people learn to be gay by practice, such as being in prison, or heavily into dark occult practices, or because they were molested themselves as children, or a host of other things or circumstances.

Still, my point is that actions are always a result of choice, whether gay, hetero or whatever (except in very rare cases of medical abnormality, such as one previous poster gave a couple of examples of.

All sexual activity is performed by choice (excepting rape, of course).

Cool its a medical problem!!

Well let us cut this the problem out!

Start one small incision on the forehead with a chain saw...

Insert a crowbar... Crack open the cranium and yank their brain out and clean it with acid... Stuff it back... Make sure it goes back in just right... Use a sledge hammer... As a tamper...

So you don't believe, that as a mammal, your sexual nature is determined by your chemical make up? I mean, sure, EVERY other animal is subject to it's chemistry, but not humans. Oh no, they are somehow different. Nope, they just aren't bound by the same rules every other animal is bound to.
