Catholic Church Is A Pedophile Breeding Ground!
PITTSBURGH (KDKA) — The long-awaited state grand jury report into sexual abuse in six Pennsylvania dioceses, including Pittsburgh and Greensburg, has finally been released.
The 884-page document, two years in the making, shines a light into the dark corners of these dioceses going back seven decades, exposing the predators and the efforts of their bishops to protect them.
“Today, the most comprehensive report on child sexual abuse within the church ever produced in our country was released,” Attorney General Josh Shapiro said. “Pennsylvanians can finally learn the extent of sexual abuse in these dioceses. For the first time, we can all begin to understand the systematic cover-up by church leaders that followed. The abuse scarred every diocese. The cover-up was sophisticated. The church protected the institution at all costs.”
Several clergy abuse victims who had testified before the grand jury attended Shapiro’s news conference. At least one of them could be seen breaking down in tears.
The report begins with the following statement:
“We, the members of this grand jury, need you to hear this. We know some of you have head some of it before. There have been other reports about child sex abuse within the Catholic Church. But never on this scale. For many of us, those earlier stories happened someplace else, someplace away. Now we know the truth: it happened everywhere.”

well there is some going on maybe a lot in certain places. However I can not believe that you would categorize “ALL CATHOLIC CHURCHES ARE PEDOPHILE BREEDING GROUNDS” Talk about a generalization.
When I grew up “ALL of the Catholic Churches” were rumored to have an arsenal of weapons in the basements so they could take over the world by force. Another Generalization. Also generally untrue but, some may store weapons in their basements for the civilians — for civilian self protection in war torn countries. Who knows? But the Generalization that they all do, and that they want to take over the world by force is untrue.
Change the generalized headline or risk being called FAKE NEWS.
These fucking people should be executed immediately
Actually, no cleric in the RC Church is “Forced” to be celibate. They are asked as part of their Ordination if they are willing to be celibate. If they choose not to be then they are not ordained. These men said “yes” then they broke their vows. Stop blaming the church for these men’s wrong doings. It should have been handled differently by their bishops. Shame on them. They make me at the same time sad and angry.
Yes, your title is bigoted and in error. Just like any organization, including protestant churches and schools, there are people who are set on destroying themselves and others. You have followed the report of a known Catholic bigot and if you read your own words this report covers 70 years. Many of the accused “abusers” are dead and cannot defend themselves. Others chose adult or post adolescent males to be their “victims”. Although there are admitted cases of child molestation, to say that the Catholic Church is a “pedophile breeding ground” is intolerable and you need to print a retraction based on the title alone.
I suggest you contact the Catholic League for a comment on these issues before you make your organization a target for legal action. https://www.catholicleague.org/
