[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You do understand that the stats on priest abuse are very similar to abuse in leadership in other faiths? It isn't just a "Catholic" issue.  It is a human issue.[/quote]

This is why you have to leave OP. 
The people who stay will keep normalizing abuse and the leadership will keep covering it up. Nothing will change until a mass exodus forces change. Be a part of the solution.[/quote]  You missed the part about it being a human issue.  No one is "normalizing" this abhorrent behavior simply stating that it is a problem in all religious institutions and because it is a "human issue" it is also a problem in schools, clubs, etc.   People will single out the Catholic Church while ignoring the bigger problem in society as a whole.[/quote]

When it happens in a school, the person is fired and/or sent to jail.

When it happens in the Catholic church, they just moved the abuser to a new church.

These things are not equal.[/quote]
