Any organization that has a billion people worldwide will have abuse. When that abuse is uncovered it is an outrage to all good people including Catholics.   I could lump a lot of people into the same boat but you know what, I know better than to do such, ... as I know better to lump the sins and abuses of the radical Taliban, atheists such as Stalin and cult believers such as Hitler into the same boat as all atheist or pagan beliefs or Muslim or or or ... What a ridiculous statement that would be. I also don't lump races into some generalized statement. No people who are good will accept abuse from any organization, church or otherwise. You find it, and you get rid of it and you punish those who do it. There are many religious leaders and non religious leaders that are bad people, cause ya know what, there are bad people in this life. There are also many wonderful people who dedicate their life to others in the Catholic church and even people who are atheist, pagans, Muslims and and and and (IMAGINE THAT!). But those with hate will never admit to that either.

If ya haven't figured that out yet, I do so feel sorry for ya.
