If Atheists have nothing to do with "Catholic molestation," why are Atheists on nairaland whining over it? 3. How many kids have been molested by people who share your faith or lack of faith...and what are you people doing about it? 2 Likes |

Who will tell us how many children have been molested by Atheists all through history? Apparently, you Atheists dont see "atheist molestation" as a problem. 2 Likes |

From 7.6 billion people in the world, 16% are atheist, but only three 3 (THREE) from more than 1.6 billion people that are atheist.

Re: 8000 Catholic Priests Are Paedophiles by plaetton: 5:23pm On Jul 14, 2014 |
italo: ...because the Catholic Church is tackling its problem. No doubts, pedophiles come in all colors and stripes. But, and that's a big "BUT", other pedophiles do not use the pretense of piety, and under the protective umbrella of a big, old and powerful religious institution to perpetuate their evil. A pervert is s pervert. A pervert in a priestly robe is a far greater danger to children and society. The pertinent question is why is religious priesthood, in this case Catholic, such a genteman's club for perverts and pedophiles? Does priestly training induce some kind of neurosis, or, are homosexual pedophile people somehow drawn to the priesthood, perhaps in genuine attempts to subdue the inner conflicts or disharmony of their tormented psyche? The bottom line, as has been evident is that the catholic priesthood is a collection of sick people, dangerous people who harm children. Whether the sickness is caused by internal or external factors is where the focus should be. 3 Likes |

Ubenedictus: If this below is an attempt to bully me or misrepresent me then you certainly failed. Read with your head and eyes and if you see anything that is irrational or unobjective in my post then point it out. Correction sir, The catholic is an institution. It is a powerful, old and well entrenched religious , political, economic and administrative institution with a heirachy of leadership and bureaucracy. Therefore, the catholic church is wholly responsible for all and every act of evil committed by it's agents. The fact that the church can and has been sued and fined in various jurisdictions is proof that they are deemed responsible both for the acts, and their failure over the many millenia to protect the children. It would serve the church greater if they can face the facts that the priesthood seem to either induce or attract mainly homosexual pedophiles. 2 Likes |

So all the pedoph!les in the world are catholic priests? The truth is that non catholics especially in the media hate catholic church but we care less! There are controveries in other churches but its only what happens in catholic and Islam that makes headline. I have read on net and other places about other pedoph!les who are pastors even anglican priests. Some are not even men of God. I suppose you are yoruba. So,what have you people said about the constant molest in your tribe!where fathers sleep with their daughters!! Guess that's enough reason for me to say that 50% or 80% or even all yoruba men are incestuous including you?? Were you expecting me to deny my faith because of this? Go kiss rat as5 my friends (you and your likes). Besides, we have never presented ourselves or priests as saints and have condenmed those involved. Weah96: 1 Like |

peppyluv02: I'm not Yoruba. But just for the sake of clarification, is your loyalty to the Catholic organization or is it to God? And yes, you have presented yourselves as saints. This whole mandatory celibacy business that your priests follow is a PR move designed to make them appear holy and pious. Not only that, but the Vatican itself gets to allocate sainthood. Any organization with the power to assign sainthood to people should not contain child r)apists. That's all I'm saying 3 Likes |

And no one is being forced to be a priest! You can quit a night to your ordination. These men are human not God. You and I know how much most people pretend and hide their true character for a very long time. The vatican don't allocate sainthood. They recognise those worthy of it. Let's say you are Anglican or any of the orthodox churches,why do you choose the names of those saints if you think its being allocated maybe for favoritism or something. Pls we don't see ourselves as saints. We always find ourselves unworthy before God and it reflects in our prayers.. "Lord, I am not worthy to receive you,but only say a word and my soul shall be healed" Mind you, I and my catholic brethens are not supporting the priests who committed such atrocities but we are defending the church because you people seem to judge and condenm us all just because of few men who are not even up to 2% of the catholic population. I don't support the issue of pedophiles and it makes me ashamed when I hear of it but that won't make me deny my faith. I never became a catholic because of those priests neither was it by birth. Yes,I was a born a catholic,my maternal grandfather lived with Blessed Iwene Tansi as a boy so I have a strong catholic background but that's not the real reason for my strong faith in it. As I grew older,I had a chance to explore other churches,not condenming them afterall, there are pastors I listen to and enjoy their preaching but I think I learn the best of what I want from the catholic church. And to answer your question,my loyalty is to God whom I got strongly connected to through the church. Good night. Weah96: 2 Likes |

Apatheist: Are you really this dull or you're just a computer virus at work? Here's what the link says: Some of the well known atheist advocates of the North American Man/Boy Love Association (NAMBLA) are: 1. The atheist and homosexual David Thorstad was a founding member of the North American Man/Boy Love Association (NAMBLA).[1] 2. Harry Hay (1912 - 2002) was a liberal atheist advocate of statutory rape and the widely acknowledged founder and progenitor of the activist homosexual agenda in the United States.[2][3][4] Hay joined the Communist Party of the United States (CPUSA) in 1934. [5] He was a vociferous advocate of man/boy love. [6][7] In 1986, Hay marched in a gay parade wearing a shirt emblazoned with the words "NAMBLA walks with me."[8] 3. The writer Samuel R. Delaney is an atheist and a homosexual.[9][10] Delaney said he was a supporter of NAMBLA.[11] There are multitudes of Atheist molesters. 1 Like |

plaetton: You're still missing it. Paedophilia is more rampant among you non-Catholic priests than it is among priests. Plaetton and his like are far more likely to be paedophiles than a Catholic priest is. This is the pot calling the kettle black. You're exhibiting poor reasoning. Read this and direct your dull tirade at you members of the general population who are far worse: As I’ve noted elsewhere, child-molestation is not a Catholic problem. It is a problem of Western culture in general. As Newsweek pointed out in their 2011 article Mean Men, “experts say there’s simply no data to support the claim [that the Church is “a refuge for pederasts”] at all …. based on the surveys and studies conducted by different denominations over the past 30 years, experts who study child abuse say they see little reason to conclude that sexual abuse is mostly a Catholic issue. ‘We don’t see the Catholic Church as a hotbed of this or a place that has a bigger problem than anyone else,’ said Ernie Allen, president of the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children.” Dr Thomas Plante a Professor of Psychology and an Adjunct Clinical Professor of Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences at Stanford University School of Medicine says “available research suggests that approximately two to five per cent of priests have had a sexual experience with a minor” a percentage which “is lower than the general adult male population that is best estimated to be closer to eight per cent.” A child is more likely to be molested by his parents, his neighbors, or family friends than a priest, yet there exists no stereotype about these groups. According to the US Department of Education’s report on the issue, entitled Educator Sexual Misconduct: A Synthesis of Existing Literature, “the physical sexual abuse of students in schools is likely more than 100 times the abuse by [Catholic] priests. - See more at: http://www.patheos.com/blogs/badcatholic/2012/05/3-arguments-atheists-arent-allowed-to-use-anymore.html#sthash.aFw3BHAh.dpuf 1 Like |
