THESE STATS GIVE "DOWN UNDER" A NEW MEANING

Catholic authorities reveal 4,444 people allege they were victims of child sexual abuse at hands of church

TODAY is a big day for victims of child sexual abuse within the Catholic Church in this country.

It marks the first time in history that the Australian arm of the church opened its books to reveal the extent of abuse over decades.

The data is confronting. The numbers are shocking.

  1. The root problem... people in power, who could have taken steps to stop this terrible plague, did nothing to stop, probably because they wanted to protect their precious priests.
    Rather than dumping the bad eggs they transferred then to new and unsuspecting victims.
    Tragic pattern repeated worldwide which is attributable to birth control and the gay agenda. Birth control because smaller families meant fewer parents wanted a priest son and chose grandchildren instead.
    Gay agenda because most of these acts are homosexual and society has chosen to accept this behaviour. And the result is more sex abuse of our little boys- they are vulnerable at they are easy opportunities for gay priests.
    Certainly the Archbishop of Guam is gay and who knows the true extent of his crimes? He will never talk or cooperate so only strong victims can give them an idea.
    Sad comment on the failures of society and the Church.

  2. I do not think the Archibishop of Guam was gay. I do not think a gay likes boys, but a pedophile does. Many priests had abused girls, they were not gays, there were pedophiles.
    Please, do not criminalize gays. Gay is not the same than criminal. I know gay people who are extraordinary persons, as well as I know hetero people who are bad persons.
    One thing is not agree with homosexuality and another very different to consider each homosexual as a criminal.

    1. Hi Lapaz. Thank you for bringing this up as some clarification is needed.

      Per the Catechism of the Catholic Church "homosexuality" is simply an orientation. It is not a sin and evil or "criminal," as you say. It is called an "objective disorder" simply because sex is naturally ordered to procreation which is true whether one believes in God or not.

      Homosexual acts, like any other sexual acts not ordered to procreation, are not natural. This would include contraceptive sex (even between married people), masturbation, and same-sex sex. (I must stress that by “natural” I am referring to Natural Law.) Any actual sexual act performed outside the natural order is a sin. The Catechism calls homosexual acts, “intrinsically disordered. “ The Catechism is actually far more severe with contraceptive sex between sacramentally married couples, calling those acts “intrinsically evil.”

      Now that we have that out of the way, let us turn our attention to the main subject which is whether or not the majority of these crimes were actually pedophilia or they were something else.

      Here is the wiki definition of pedophilia:

Pedophilia or paedophilia is a psychiatric disorder in which an adult or older adolescent experiences a primary or exclusive sexual attraction to prepubescent children.[1][2] Although girls typically begin the process of puberty at age 10 or 11, and boys at age 11 or 12,[3] criteria for pedophilia extend the cut-off point for prepubescence to age 13.[1] A person who is diagnosed with pedophilia must be at least 16 years old, and at least five years older than the prepubescent child, for the attraction to be diagnosed as pedophilia.

      In almost every case, at least those cases filed on Guam, the victims were NOT prepubescent, but pubescent or adolescent, meaning they were biological adults, capable of reproduction. This is why at the public hearing for the bill lifting the statue of limitations, one of the few people who was actually an expert on the matter, a certain Annabelle Cruz, rightly labeled the problem HEBOPHILIA.

      Again, the wiki definition:


      Hebephilia is the strong, persistent sexual interest by adults in pubescent (early adolescent) children (especially those showing Tanner stages 2-3 of development), typically ages 11–14. Hebephilia differs from pedophilia,[1] which is the strong, persistent sexual interest in prepubescent children.It also differs from ephebophilia, the strong, persistent sexual interest in later adolescents, typically ages 15–19.

      Our society confuses things by drawing arbitrary legal lines such as defining a minor as under the age of 18. We then throw all minors into the status of “children,” which biologically means prepubescent, when these “children” have already achieved biological adulthood several years earlier.

      The truth about most of the perpetrators is that they were simply SICK sex fiends who were never psychologically mature enough to engage in a true mature relationship. This is why most of the perpetrators were in a position of authority. They acceded to it naturally because it was the easiest means of satisfying their deformed urges (using power over underlings), and where they could hide the fact that they never grew up.
