New motto of the Catholic Church, the Lord touches you in mysterious ways, and don’t tell anyone where you were touched.

So is every other church in every other denomination.
Why would anyone ever put as much faith in a load of flawed people versus the god they believe to be omnipotent? Sounds dumb as hell.

I'm not Catholic, so someone can correct me if I'm mistaken, but this reads like the dioceses wouldn't have been able to do much to these guys if they were aware of their abuse.
The dioceses appear to have been forthcoming and cooperative with the investigation otherwise.
Correct. They answer to a different chain of command.
It would be like an Aramark employee working at a sports venue.

This is what I'm wondering but I'm certainly not going behind a NY times pay wall- were these recent abuses or stuff that happened 40-50 years ago just coming to light and now the priests that committed these crimes are now dead?
Old ones.
Nobody is going to report an incident to the diocese post-1993. Anything after that the cops knew first.

That’s a straight out lie. Check the insurance settlements for Protestant churches and you will see similar rates of abuse.

Wait, I thought according to everyone here, it was the Trans people that everyone was worried about.
Why not both?
And why are you willing to give a pass to pedos just because they “identify” as a woman.

A lot of the pedo priests in the 50s & 60s would probably be trans today - same sick mentality

yet many people who post here continue to give money to the catholic church on a regular basis
Catholicism is bizarre and I’m disgusted by their history of abuse, but they do have good urban schools, so I’m going to pay them to educate my kids and give my son a hell of a talk about grown men and things they should never do.

Yeah okay. You can google it yourself.
This shite goes on in every religion. Yall sitting around worried about drag queen shows and its the church kids getting dibbled with.

I might start a church and be brutally honest. "Look, I have absolutely 0 interest in your kids. They safe with me. I just want your money... Amen"

That’s a straight out lie. Check the insurance settlements for Protestant churches and you will see similar rates of abuse.
Christians are renowned for their blatant hypocrisy though.

shite, think how attractive churches are to predators, by going through the process / seminary etc. you immediately gain some clout and can take advantage of the trust of communities, families, and their children.
You have to be a real twisted frick of course, and a serial liar, but idk if y'all have noticed yet, there's plenty of those to go around.
