I read the reflection melted "response" of "free will" again and again here. "God ordered each person killed in Jericho (with one or two possible exceptions). This means that men, women, children and babies. What about "free will", then? "God" KILLED every human being on earth, except immediate family Noahs. Justify What was the crime committed by each and every one of those men, women, children and babies? What about "free will"? But you see this big, powerful …….. false and non existent but ….. "God" not only these things in biblical times. Yes, miracles, murder, stoning, burning, change, animals talk, the 500 years of life, and all the rest of hooey that only happened in biblical times. For some reason, "God" just can not seem to do any of this magical things. Now "he" just sits back, does nothing at all, and leave everything to the "free will". Oh yes, now the answer to "gods" and the total inaction from chronic biblical times, is "free will". This is so surprising and stupifyingly absurd that it takes your breath away.

Why the emphasis only on the Catholic priests?
People of all races, religion and creed have bothered to children long before the invention of the Catholic religion.
Well, say there is no God, no man should take responsibility for their inhuman acts?
And do not forget the girls, but also have been disturbed. Yes?

I agree with Ray, but it is not just Catholics. Other priests, Rabi, etc have done. It is only recently that Catholics have been singled out and bring to light. As for why God is doing nothing? He was given free will to do good or evil. This is the plague of man and man must solve.

Yawn. This is not really much of a revelation.
I am sure that the Protestant ministers have been doing for centuries too. There are perverts around the world - Catholics do not have a monopoly on it. What the Catholic Church has done wrong is to cover and move to the priests to new places where you can start all over again. But I am sure you can find parallels in other denominations - the media is only focusing on Catholicism.

What God has done what I can see is that the scandal has allowed the surface. In this way, our beloved Church which is purified in the midst of persecution, as Jesus had risen Calvary

I 2nd Cross Catholic response. People constantly ask questions, how are you, like pedophilia does not occur when the rest of the world as if we are imagining all the other cases of incest in the family, school teachers with students, the fact that Pedophilia knows no race, gender or religion, however, Catholics receiving Flack for it. Do I sense bias / intolerance here?

child sexual abuse has been happening since the dawn of time and god didn't do anything about their cause, whether real or not doesn't care
