"Well, gee, Jim, I don't know how it is around you"
Child molestation take place everywhere, but not habitually in one institution and not on the scale it has in the church.
I ask again - I will clarify in order that you don't try and dodge the question again
If widespread sexual abuse had taken place in schools throuhghout the education system and if the collegues of the abusers had ignored what was happening, the school authorities had hidden and not reported them to the appropriate authorities and had pressurised the pupils and parents into signing a pledge of silence, and then moved the offending teachers on to other posts where they were free to continue that abuse - what do you feel should happen to ALL the guilty parties, abusers and accomplices?
A straight answer would be appreciated please.
The monolithic side of the question is explicity in the fact that the abuse wasd endemic and fully accepted throughout the church - from pries to pope (not forgetting the abused altar-boys).
