"They have Jim, on an equivalent scale."
WHAT?????
I have no doubt that there may have been a few who (technically) raped pupils.
I know of no case of teachers covering for a teacher who did such a thing - do you?
I certainly don't believe there are any examples of schools covering up cases of teachers having sex with pupils - do you?
I have never heard of a case of a teacher being found to have habitually had sex with underage pupils being passed on to another school to continue his "little weakness" - have you?
I have never heard of any case that the education Department, or even a Minister for Education covering up habitual rape of children -have you?
Should the Education Department lock away and refuse access to the authorities of any information that this has gone on in schools, the whole education system would be brought crashing to the ground - are you really suggesting that this has happened?
All of these examples have taken place withing the church - probably assist the victims can get some sort of closure.
I don't know what sort of school you taugt in but thank Christ is wasn't one my relatives attended.
This out-bizarres any claim you have ever made.
I have at not time said I would like to see an and to the Catholic - or any church - too many friends, neighbours and relatives would be devastated wheer such thing to happen.
My argument is that all Churches and clerics should be confined to the spiritual matter and only when that is accepted on a voluntary basis
Why claim such a thing if not from sheer dishonest spite?
The church has proved itself untrustworthy, particularly where children are concerned - it should never again occupy the elevated position is had and to a diminishing extent, still has.
I have no doubt you will walk away from this one as you have from every other dishonest statement you have made - that seems to be the kind of person you are.

The same church has, in the past, supported mass murderers and dictators in the past and used its influence to further their ends - Hitler, Mussolini, Franco, Pinochet - and a whole string of Fascist despots....
Because the present flavour of the month happens to be a progressive one doesn't wipe out any of those things.
Religion and politics are a toxic mix - open any newspaper in the next few days if you don't believe that.
