It is those that let themselves believe they march to a beat of a set of drums of different laws & rules. They assume they are entitled to break those laws & rules as they see fit because of who they are the Catholic Church.<br /><br />{we should not treat any offender with kid gloves} <br /> I agree<br /> <br />These special offenders have special helpers, enablers like other clergy, priest that directly or indirectly cover up the crimes believing or assuming it's all for the good of the Church. <br /><br />That is steady changing every day.

None are exempt. But when crimes are committed, we need to focus strictly on the offenders as <i>individuals</i>, and not blame the entire organization.

Two hundred men courageously stand together to say they were all molested.<br /><br />Fr. Tim, you can TUNE in on NOVEMBER 5, 2010 to watch the Oprah show & also spread the news to all especially to your brother priests about this important topic! The second part will be aired November 12th unless they (the network) changes that date.<br /><br />I pray people will set aside their prejudices about not liking Oprah & just listen to the victims.<br /><br />Here's a quote from one sexual abuse victim a Tim Fischer:<br /><br />"Pedophiles around the world: hear the ground swell of the hundreds of thousands of men and women who are fed up with your abuse and realize we are active and we are not going to put up with you any longer."<br /><br />Peace to you all!<br /><br />LinaLinanoreply@blogger.com
