[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I will stay because now I am motivated to be part of the solution.  Many in the church hierarchy have admitted that they need the help of the laity and law enforcement to help them address the damage done by those who should have never been there to begin with.  They know they need to clean house.  They are finally admitting they need support to do it.  There are good, faithful, holy priests.  Men who accepted the vocation with all that it asks of them and they do their job well.  My heart hurts for them.  (Much like my heart hurts for my law enforcement husband who gets painted with the brush of every arrogant, hot-headed, power hungry cop who abuses his power and bring shame to the force.  Yet many in the police brotherhood protect those who bring shame!)  NO! Stand up!  Be strong enough to speak up!  I really do believe in this Church begun by Jesus through Peter.  Evil, sinful men may have damaged it, but they will not break my faith in what I believe to be true.  [b]They will not break my will to do what Jesus would do.[/b]  Oddly their sin is what has sparked me to now be more than a passive churchgoer.  I want to fix my church to make amends to those who have been hurt and to support the faithful who want to, and WILL, do good.[/quote]

and where was Jesus while all this pedophilia was going on?  For decades -- and probably centuries.  Good luck fixing your church -- the guys in charge have made a career of messing it up.

You know, you can believe in Jesus without believing in the Roman Catholic church - many people do.[/quote]
