        Over 300 priests raped, molested, and tortured over 1000 children in Pennsylvania. That's one state out of 50. One country out of 100s. How many children have been destroyed by the Church? This was a grotesque criminal conspiracy and the Church has yet to make a statement.

        A priest discussed this in church -he baptized children -opened the gates to church early in the morning -weddings & heard confessions -went to the hospital for Anointing of the Sick - all for the love of God - there maybe bad priests out there - there’s a lot of good ones!

        Agreed, but right now we need to talk about the bad ones. More importantly, the church needs to talk about them.

        Exactly. There can be no forgiveness if there is no repentance. The Church is far from repentant. It steadfastly refuses to admit the scope of this horror.

        It apologizes, and the horror goes on! What then is the value of those apologies?

        Many of the many of the disgraceful events you refer to occurred years ago and are only now being revealed for the past 20 or so years since to at least 2,000 the church has been dealing with this the church cannot be held accountable for what it did not know at the time

        Mary isn't a virgin nowhere in the scriptures does her Son tell us to call her a virgin much less pray to her, repent and live in faith not religious repetitions
