I'm not a Catholic but I think VA is right. All organisations have bad apples, teachers, police, judges etc etc but you can't condemn them all.

I'm not an expert in what has been happening with the RC church and the going ons of some of their priests but I really doubt that they support paedophilia as Alicatt states. The actions of the church to resolve this matter may not be to everyones approval but I'm sure they think it's the best way of dealing with it and mistakes happen so they may well have dealt with it wrongly. I seem to remember The Pope has apologised to victims about the actions of some of his priests but done so to the victims personally - now yes there seem to be a large number of victims but surely a personal apology is far better than the media apology that seems to be the call.

These paedophiles have used the church to hide their sick wants, the church is in some way a victim too of their sick perversion because even if they were not priests I think they would have still done what they have done. 2005 Zambezi TDV6 - Gone but not forgotten

What is done is done but it remains revolting. Some of the perpetrators have not received adequate punishment and have been dealt with apparently leniently. The fact that those who should have been in a position of trust violated that trust so blatantly while pretending to be close to "God" is heinous.

I don't believe in any God, I am sure that's obvious. I do however support anyone's right to believe in what they wish. But don't hide behind virtuosity and feel up little kids and then expect to get away with it.

I also happen to think that 83 year old men dressing up in robes holding up a disc of rice paper to the sky pretending to communicate with something in the clouds is comical....but....if it's harmless it's fine, if very funny to me.  Gone - 2008 Stornoway Grey RRS 2.7 TDV6

you also don't believe in taking Range Rovers off road BKHK.....

How outrageous, such blasphemy...

May you be struck down by Lightening by the great Range Rover in the sky!

While I don't think that it is the RC church in it's self that supports paedos, it is seen here that those that are in charge of the RC church in this country are giving the impression that it is and that is bad. This country is RC through and through and it is shaking the trust that people had in the church here.

It's the whole relgious mis-conception issue that is irritating.

In the same way that not all muslim leaders are terrorists, not all catholic preists are paedophiles.

I think the Pope coming to the UK is a good thing and people moaning about the £12m it costs should look at the billions wasted on outrageously ridiculous "things" every year.

......agreed, like the thousands of free loaders that wash up on our shores, no use to us and no use to the economy, just unwanted migrants from walks of life that have no intention but to bleed this country dry, why? because the system is too easy and does not work, beneficially to them, not us.

If Multiculturalism is the new word for segregation as displayed by some of these extreme groups that have infiltrated this country, then for once the government has got it just right. Preach evil / anti UK etc = receive huge benefits and immunity from the standard laws of the land and carry on as you deem necessary.

The way it has been dealt with behind closed doors, with little seeing to be done has been what has annoyed me.

I understand that the way it has been dealt with has been goverened by Church law, and this is where the conflict arises due to the Church Laws on defamation.

Needs to be sorted
