I do not understand...why are these child molesters above the law? Their penalties should be harsher than any of the other perverts simply because of the added damages done to the children who looked up to them and thought they held some special positions with God.
Then I ask this question: WHY are the people who are made aware of these horrific and serial crimes...sex abuse and rape...not ALSO held accountable for their refusal to report those crimes in places what that law exists? Why are these shameful men called 'Bishops' and 'Popes' allowed to harbor such diabolical criminals without facing justice themselves? And last I ask, if these Catholic 'Churches' are controlled by the Church leaders in Rome, and if the money collected from the members of those churches is SENT to their Bishops or to Rome, WHY are these victims NOT allowed to sue for all the money in the Catholic Churches banks and in their properties and artwork? As rich as that church is, they should be made to pay every penny for the thousands of lives that were effected by these devils in black. With interest. One last question: how many children you you think Jesus would allow to be raped before He did something about it to protect them all? New American Standard Bible <http://nasb.scripturetext.com/matthew/19.htm> (©1995) <http://www.lockman.org/> But Jesus said, "Let the children alone, and do not hinder them from coming to Me; for the kingdom of heaven belongs to such as these."
