I am disgusted with the catholic church (former catholic). Every week more sex abuse cases still coming forward (worldwide) All the church does is open the vault and pay off the abused. Any priest/minister/bishop/ should be treated like the general public when it comes to sex abuse. Long sentences in jail, not payoffs with collection plate money from the hard working parishioners. I also believe any and all priests, bishops, cardinals who were or are aware of a clergy member sexually abusing a young person and did nothing, should also be charged with aiding and abeting.

I can't believe the silence by the sheep of the catholic church who aren't protesting in front of their church everytime another child is abused by one of these criminals.
