Almost one child every other week for 90 years...

The Catholic Church is a Racketeering Influenced Corrupt Organization.

This type of abuse is being found in Catholic churches, Protestant churches, Baptist churches, and Evangelical churches. It's also being found in their affiliated religious schools and even the Boy Scouts. And this is after they tried to hide the abuse and let it continue.

Our children must be protected. All churches must be shut down.

Any parent who knowingly exposes their children to religion must lose their parental rights and go to jail. These sick perverts cannot be allowed anywhere near children.

Priests are the real groomers.

From the moment children can learn, they are whisked off every Sunday to a room to be indoctrinated about the mythical sky man and taught that priests are the friends looking out for their eternal souls. Sunday school, first communion classes and confirmation classes are all grooming methods to keep the kids in line with the threat of eternal lake of fire in order to secure a revenue stream for 70 plus years until death and a constant stream of young kids for the priest to diddle.

Fking disgusting is what it is.

The sooner the human race can shake the stink of organized religion off of it, the sooner we can become better people.

It takes a special kind of con artist to convince someone to willingly hand over 10% of their gross income, tax free for a product they can't use until they die.

Remember! Swimsuits at Target are the real evil, though!

I'm fairly convinced that the reason the right wingers are against any type of sex-ed in public schools is because for many kids that's when they realize they are being abused and being groomed.

It seems really obvious to me.

They're completely obsessed with the genitalia of kids.

Obsessed to the point that they want to inspect their kids classmates -------- to make sure they're playing with the right kids.

So, basically, Republican politicians, who for the most part are pedophiles and groomers, do not want their young victims to realize or learn that have been abused or are being groomed for abuse. Perfect. I like the analysis. It even makes sense. If a person does not know they are being victimized it is less likely that they will report the crime. Until years later when they finally realize what has been done to them. But by then, most Republicans can brush off the allegations as being unreliable or politically motivated. Brilliant!

One of the best decisions I ever made in life,
leaving the Catholic Church around age 16.

What does that come out to? 4.5 kids per clergyman? LOL. What kind of twisted freak goes into the priesthood in the first place?

Maybe if you lie about her being molested enough it will become true, at least for your cult. Worked for trump's election lies.

If republicans actually cared about child abuse the church would be their number one target.

And they wouldnt be getting rid of child labor laws.

Better shut down all the drag clubs, now that we have this damning evidence!

It's also the reason, IMO, for the religious indoctrination against anything sexual. Make them ashamed to say anything about anything remotely sexual and you've done a large majority if the work needed to keep your abuse hidden.

To paraphrase Dan Savage, if clowns sexually abused kids as often as catholic priests did, it would be illegal to take your kids to the circus.

Groomers are so easy to find. They deflect and ignore actual grooming and demand policies that make their grooming easier for them and their friends.

No I'm calling the fascist cult member who keeps saying that her diary says joe biden molested her a liar.

And of course you're going to jump in on the side of the lying fascist cult member.

How would you characterize "inappropriate showers" that resulted in lifelong trauma?

I would characterize them two ways:
1. Your wet dream, groomer.
2. A lie

She didn't call them inappropriate. She didn't say anything about trauma related to them.

You are a Groomer and a Liar.

Left-wing Snopes calls the allegations "unproven", which is not the same as false. My guess is she eventually got creeped out by his insistence that she use Prell and his constant sniffing of her hair.

Snopes says you're a liar. Snopes says the passage about trauma and showers are unrelated.

Your posts says you're a groomer. A story about actual proving grooming. But that's 3 posts from you and nothing but lies and deflections. You really are a friend to true groomers everywhere.

No one is surprised.

Speaking of groomers, is the------------------- still promoting kiddie pageants?

Bellringer still can't bring himself to say anything negative about actual groomers.

Hard to be surprised.
