Catholic Lawyers and Parish Trustees Should Act!

In the wake of a decade and a half of civic obsession with sexual abuse in the Catholic Church it is time for the Catholic Church to lead the offensive charge against the sexual abuse everywhere else which is still being largely covered-up and ignored.

Concerned lay men and women of every parish (especially in Pennsylvania, New York and New Jersey), especially legal and law-enforcement professionals, should go to City Hall and demand the public criminal records of the city (including the crimes in schools) of 2017 (never mind for the past hundred years!), and make those results public.

We want to know how many cases of sexual abuse crimes have been reported in 2017.

How many credibly accused perpetrators?

How many of the criminals were immediate family?
How many were employed by public schools: teachers, coaches, administrators, etc.?
How many were medical professionals: doctors, psychologists, etc.?
How many were clergy, with a breakdown for each religious denomination?
What other significant group is disproportionately represented among the criminals?
What were the ages of the victims in each of the above cases?

This blogger is quite sure that, given the hyperbolic civil and media detraction against the Catholic Church on this, the Catholic churches would come out practically immaculate in this regard!

With millions of reports over the past fifteen years on the Catholic Church there has not been any comprehensive report on these crimes in any other area of our society!

This smearing of the Catholic Church is the work of the anti-Christ, plain and simple.

All Catholic laity should get out there and clear the good Name of our Holy Mother the Church. The Church is One, Holy, Catholic and Apostolic. She has her Judases, but she also has Jesus Christ, The Most Blessed Virgin Mary and all the Saints and Angels of all ages. Catholics are the best equipped to clean up the moral mess of our age.

By the way, sexual crimes are only the tip of the iceberg of sexual immorality and perversion in our sexually permissive society. It is total hypocrisy to selectively criminalize sexual immorality. That simply promotes every manner of abuse and perversion. If you tell people "If it feels good, do it!" then of course the men will abuse the vulnerable.
