The World’s Largest Coalition of Nontheists and Nontheist Communities!

Gay rights groups have been outraged by the comments of Cardinal Tarcisio Bertone (the Vatican's Foreign Minister) when speaking in Chile. He stated that homosexuality and not celibacy lay behind the 100s of child sex abuse scandals which have rocked the Catholic church more recently.

 

Ther Cardinal continued to say that he had documented evidence from psychiatrists and psychologists which confirmed his statement.

 

Aurelio Mancuso, the former president of Italian gay rights association Arcigay has accused the Vatican of shifting the attention to homosexuality away from the many child sex abuse cases that emerge every day.

 

Bertone needs a good kick in the arse!

However I'd wager if you look up a link between sexual oppression and pedophila, you'd find one. I'm at work or I'd look myself...
So, let me get this right: the problem with the church is that it is full of homosexuals that because of their celibacy have no other outlet than children. So, the church is full of doubly sinful priests? Oh, well in that case carry on then.

Such a pitiful mockery of real arguments from these idiots at the Catholic PAC. Even if his LIE were true, the problem would still lay with the Catholic leadership hiding criminals.
