Catholic Church rapes children more than one way

An advocacy group criticized the Archdiocese of Miami, saying it is blaming a young man for an alleged rape by a priest in its response to a lawsuit.

A group for survivors of assaults by priests urged the Archdiocese of Miami on Thursday to stop blaming a young man for his alleged rape by the Rev. Neil Doherty -- a crime the man claims happened when he was a child.

Six members of the group tried to hand-deliver a letter to Archbishop John Favalora blasting the archdiocese's legal response to a civil lawsuit filed by the young man that suggested one possible defense could be that the alleged victim's ''own negligence'' caused the abuse. The protesters were turned away by security guards who monitored closed gates around the archdiocese's headquarters on Biscayne Boulevard in Miami Shores. " (end of excerpt)

What happened to the Catholic Church? Did child molestors become the majority of the Cardinals? When all these kids were getting molested (some at least as far back as the 1930s) the Church's Bishops, Cardinals, etc. should have been the first ones contacting the Police and Law Enforcement and demanding that all pedophile priests be investigated and arrested.

Instead, the evidence clearly shows that time after time, year after year, in numerous different parts of the USA, the Church has protected the child molestors. Any settlement with the Church has required silence by the molested victims. The Church has never accepted responsibility for its criminal actions. The Church has at all times put its billions of dollars into hiring lawyers and getting politicians to help them silence the victims.

Why is the Catholic Church so evil? Why does it act in a manner that allows sin and evil to continue to be done to children? Where are the Christians in the Catholic Church? (the excerpt of the story was by Lisa Arthur, The Miami Herald)
