    However, I would make sure he was warned that priests weren't allowed to touch them and to tell me right away if one of them tried...

    Plus the vast majority of the abuse seems to have happened in like the 60's & 70's. The Church did a pretty bad job trying to cover all that up, but they *seem* to have done a better job with screening priests and guarding against it in recent decades.

      Ditto for us. I was an altar boy for many, many years and never once got buggered, I'm pleased to report.

        You've probably just suppressed the memories.

          The Priests use the date rape drugs now.

            Are you seriously claming that not one of the priests didn't try to push some religious belief on you ?
            With or without religion, you would have good people doing good things and evil people doing evil things. But for good people to do evil things, that takes religion.

              No, he means that his extracurricular activities were limited to snuggling and suckling.

                We know that as a fact, but the poor child could have ben abused in other ways as I suggested

                  Why would I let my son get involved in religion?

                      If you Euros define religious indoctrination as "ass-rape," we may owe the RCC an apology...

                        I thought it might be because you aren't a commie, but I guess that doesn't matter anymore.
