ITS NOT JUST THE CATHOLICS that are good at (or, at least guilty of) coverups. How many cases of abuse and neglect do you think go unreported around the world on a daily basis because its a church issue that needs to be handled privately? Im honestly afraid to even imagine... = = = = = FROM THIS STORY... One of the pastors told us, dont go to the police. They had a lot to protect. They had money, power and prestige, she said, before ultimately going to authorities herself. = = = = = I cant tell you how many domestic abuse cases (spouse and/or children) that I can still remember being kept quiet out of fear of tarnishing a churchs own reputation in the community. Sometimes people would be excommunicated in order to distance them from the church IF their transgressions ever became public, but - rarely did the church ever involve themselves in reporting dangerous or criminal behavior. (NOTE: No, I was never in a leadership position in those churches, and went around the churches on a couple of occasions to get the battered women into shelters...) If your religion tempts you to protect pedophiles (and other criminals) from prosecution in order to avoid personal embarrassment, you might have your priorities a little mixed up. christianpost/news/megachurch-pastor-confesses-to-protecting-child-molester-for-years-119877/
