I don’t know how anyone can still support the Catholic Church in good conscience. I walked away ten years ago because they wouldn’t come clean on this cover-up. It continues to this day. The Catholic Church is a despicable criminal organization protecting children fuckers. These priests, bishops, and cardinals will burn in hell for these heinous crimes.
More than 300 “predator priests” in six Roman Catholic dioceses across Pennsylvania were protected by church leaders more interested in safeguarding the church and the abusers than tending to their victims, a scathing grand jury report released Tuesday claims.
Over 1,000 children victims were identifiable from the church’s own records, the report says.
“The main thing was not to help children, but to avoid scandal,” the report says. “Priests were raping little boys and girls and the men of God who were responsible for them not only did nothing: They hid it all.”
The redacted report details the latest in a decades-long series of claims of abuse and protection leveled against the church across the nation and around the world. As recently as last month, Pope Francis accepted the resignation of prominent Vatican official Cardinal Theodore McCarrick amid claims of sexual abuse almost 40 years ago.
