jnetron, this is nothing new

(Ex-Jesuit) Charles J. O'Byrne, who is described as 'openly gay', estimated that 70% of the priests in his peer group were gay.

"The United States Conference of Catholic Bishops commissioned a comprehensive studythat found that four percent of all priests who had served in the U.S. from 1950 to 2002 faced some sort of sexual accusation." [23]

Jesuits pay $50 million for Inuit child abuses: "In some villages, it is difficult to find an adult who was not sexually violated by men who used religion and power to rape, shame and then silence hundreds of Alaska Native children," said Ken Roosa, an Anchorage-based attorney for the plaintiffs."


"It is well known that U.S. bishops often transferred accused Catholic priests to other parishes or dioceses after receiving (pedophilia) allegations. But the hierarchy also moved accused priests across international borders to other countries, where they continued to work with children and were often able to evade prosecution or extradition. These transfers are one of many ways in which global Catholicism affects the abuse crisis in the United States." [24]
